PSA: Alternatives for the most popular lemmy.ml communities - Lemmy
lemmy.ml
For all your boycotting needs. I’m sure there’s some mods caught in lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml]’s top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire. 1. !memes@lemmy.world [/c/memes@lemmy.world] and !memes@sopuli.xyz [/c/memes@sopuli.xyz]. Or of course communities that rule. 2. !asklemmy@lemmy.world [/c/asklemmy@lemmy.world] 3. !linux@programming.dev [/c/linux@programming.dev]. Quite small, plenty of more specific ones available. Also linux is inescapable on lemmy anyway :) 4. !programmer_humor@programming.dev [/c/programmer_humor@programming.dev] 5. !world@lemmy.world [/c/world@lemmy.world] 6. !privacy@lemmy.world [/c/privacy@lemmy.world] and maybe !privacyguides@lemmy.one [/c/privacyguides@lemmy.one], lemmy.one itself seems to be up in the air. 7. !technology@lemmy.world [/c/technology@lemmy.world] 8. Seems like !comicstrips@lemmy.world [/c/comicstrips@lemmy.world] and !comicbooks@lemmy.world [/c/comicbooks@lemmy.world], various smaller comic-specifc communities as well as !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee [/c/eurographicnovels@lemm.ee] 9. !opensource@programming.dev [/c/opensource@programming.dev] 10. !fuckcars@lemmy.world [/c/fuckcars@lemmy.world] (Out of the loop? Here’s a thread on lemmy.ml mods and their questionable behaviour [https://lemmy.world/post/16211417])

      I love how they get huffy about getting chain-banned from 20 communities (that have similar mod staffs) when they're caught either being chauvinist, racist, or genocidal. Like, a mod's not allowed to watch you transgress then think "yeah I don't want you in any community I have purview over"? That shit used to be POINT OF COURSE for larger bbforums that had multiple mods for different parts of the forum.

        If somebody posts something illegal (like CSAM), you don't want to simply deactivate it and leave it available for 'review' in the mod log. You need the ability to ensure it is not only hidden, but completely and totally deleted in memory, on the disk, in the database, on any caches / CDNs, etc.

          Oh okay. And then do you write a report to the government or something? Sorry I haven't modded a forum since I was like 9

            Requirement to do so depends on two different factors: Hosting country and site owner country, both of which claim jurisdiction.

        Mods have the ability to mass remove someone posts and comments from a comm when they ban them
