No info on who, what or why
Modlog finds my account but doesn’t link to anything to find out more:
mod Banned @boredtortoise from the community World News@lemmy.ml
reason: Sinophobia
expires: in 5 years
Edit: as the larger issue, when incorrect mod actions happen, shouldn’t Lemmy have a system for handling those? Both transparency to the users, and ways to forward the action for an admin to fix
Why does anyone subscribe to new@lemmy.ml? It’s run by tankies. Therefore very biased.
I browse by everything and don’t pay much attention to subscriptions.
I’ve thought it to be the most widely federated world news community and have shared local news there and to similar communities on other instances. I didn’t know of any mod wrongdoings earlier.
In general, lemmy.world communities have wider audiences as it’s the biggest instance, and they show up as local for those people
Oh cool. Last I heard they had performance and federation issues. Thanks for the info
It’s very stable lately, enjoy!
Are they still deferated by some major instances?
Just Beehaw, but Beehaw tends to defederate a lot
Even lemmy.ml has suffered the occasional server hiccup. Most of the big instances are pretty stable now though
