    That’s just how it shows up when a community is banned/removed by a local admin though.

    They used the same feature as everyone else:

    I’ve used it myself plenty enough.

    Fuck Grad, but this part is patently false:

    using special code no other instance can access

    Seems like there’s no explanation regarding this decision whatsoever. This place is less toxic than any other haha look at those conservatives community(not that I’m a big conservative or anything). I’ve been here since the beginning of this sub and this place has never been homophobic, transphobic, basically, never been dick to anyone. We made fun of tankies and their mental gymnastics and tankies are just as qualified of being a target of mockery as those conservative right-wing qanon bs.

    If one of the bigger instances of lemmy such as lemmy.ml and the developer himself is blocking this instance just out of sheer fragility, lemmy as a whole is at quite a stake. I know it’s federated and you can always host your own instance to tickle your fancy but c’mon. This kind of shit is why lemmy.world got bigger than lemmy.ml or beehaw in the first place. That’s honestly a loss in the big picture.

    I hope the dev take some time to recover from reading all the tankie bad posts and unblock this place.

          I don’t have high hopes even for a fork. Reddit clones tend to attract people who were banned from Reddit and there tends to be a reason for that.

          The best thing would be for a third party support community to spring up, possibly with a dedicated instance so that admins don’t get locked out of support for wrongthink.

            Fair, noticed here it’s either tankies, racists or a high amount of FOSS nerds.

              I’ve been here for a month and I’ve only seen a couple of racist comments that’s abouts it really. It’s mainly tankie stuff that I see

                I’m pretty sure that’s because the FOSS nerds are working really hard to maintain a high quality experience.
