lemmy.blahaj.zone is far from *diverse* - Lemmy.world

Yesterday, lemmy.blahaj.zone announced their defederation from lemmynsfw.com [http://lemmynsfw.com] and argued that lemmynsfw don’t care enough about CSAM. - announcement: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1204784 [https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1204784] - response: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/418317 [https://lemmynsfw.com/post/418317] Although I think lemmynsfw is right about this, that’s not the point. I believe lemmy.blahaj.zone is an instance caught in the positivity echo chamber (to put it more roughly, circle jerk). You can never interact negatively with their decisions or thoughts. Downvotes disabled. Admin literally removing any opposing view while keeping positive ones. Check this comment: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/1336587 [https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/1336587] Admin removed the comment while keeping reply of it and commenting with Exactly this. Dear friend, we don’t know the main comment so how can we agree any of them? IDK. I think it is very annoying for an instance built on diversity to have such reactions. Is it just me thinking like that? Am I the stupid one here? Note: Posting this here so admins won’t be able to remove. Edit: I guess I should add this. IDC should they defederate or not. I just don’t liked their behaviour.

    From what I’ve seen from the other users on blahaj, it’s not pretty split from the users on our instance. It’s supported. So defederating isn’t “drama”, it’s the intentional design of Lemmy

      Yeah I like the concept of chronicling all these happenings but declaring them to be dramatic circumstances is not only trying to be divisive for it’s own sake, it’s also just a bald-faced lie in most cases.

      We shouldn’t emulate reddit’s toxic bullshit like SRD. Defederating happens, and it’s not a big deal. Pretending like it is actively makes the platform worse.
