MeanwhileOnGrad @sh.itjust.works cm0002 @lemmy.world Good job everyone blocking and boycotting .ml! It's having an effect, users are noticing and MAUs on their comms are falling!
And for anyone asking "Why are we boycotting/blocking lemmy.ml?" Here's a quick recap:
Lemmy.ml is an instance run by admins who are hardcore tankies and will enforce their ideology on their instance through various means from allowing (and pushing it themselves) propaganda (Such as Russia being justified in some way to invade Ukraine) and known propaganda outlets (Like RT) to removing content on their instance critical of their favored authoritarian regimes such as Russia or China and even banning users for such speech or speech critical of them if it's off their instance (Just like the Reddit mods of ol!).
If it was just some random instance it would have been defederated from long ago like the rest of the "Tankie Triad" (Hexbear and Lemmygrad), but they've positioned lemmy.ml as the "flagship" instance and abused that position and influence to become large enough to keep other instances from defederating from them.
Which I believe is harmful to the Lemmy-verse's overall growth

Hello all, I hope you have been well and I wish I could say the same for myself. I am refraining from being pessimistic in this moment but as it stands I do not feel too good. This has nothing to do with my health or the health of anyone in my family. Although we're all physically well, what happened left me shocked and unable to process everything. Due to the sensitivity of this subject I won’t object if the mods deem it safer for the community to lock this post.
Opening her eyes and then staring into mine, she eased into herself and said “Your aunt told me you were wondering what happened to my sons.” I nodded, mentioning what she said about how her sons had experienced some hardships recently. She looked away and nodded. With a slight smile she looked at me and said “She also said you had your own opinions on the genocide.”
At that point I realized my aunt had communicated my skepticism to her. “I have my o

Well that was fast lol
At one point I was federated with Hexbear, then they didn't like what I had to say and defederated me. For some reason, when I pointed that out recently, they silently re-federated with me, which meant I was in a position to talk with some of them again.
Pretty much instantly after the refederation, some of them started going hard in the paint on one of my posts, with an "it's all NATO's fault Ukraine got invaded, why is the US doing so much to prevent the Russians from their noble goal of seeking peace in Ukraine" viewpoint. I disagreed. We got to talking, and this happened:
That wasn't actually a mod. My comments were removed only on Hexbear, nowhere else, which I assume means it was an admin doing stuff in a way where it would look like it was a moderator. Also:
