memes

Here's a list of a few .ml communities and potential replacements:

• ask lemmy - !asklemmy@lemm.ee !asklemmy@sh.itjust.works
• linux - !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip !linux@linux.community !linux@programming.dev
• memes* - !memes@sopuli.xyz !memes@slrpnk.net !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone !memes@midwest.social
• programmer humor - !programmer_humor@programming.dev
• world news - !news@beehaw.org !globalnews@lemmy.zip
• technology - !technology@sh.itjust.works
• funny - !funny@sh.itjust.works
• ukraine - !ukraine@sopuli.xyz

Side note the main issue with .ml is transparency. It's fine if the admins of an instance implement whatever rules they want in their instance; however, once they start enforcing hidden rules disguised as violations of the listed rules, they're being liars and treating the users as stupid things to be herded, not as human beings.

EDIT: as people noticed I'm not including .world comms to not encourage even further concentration of activity into the largest instance. Decentralisation is important. Also I'm adding stuff that you guys suggest.

* for specialised memes, as the category is rather large:

• !science_memes@mander.xyz
• !reactionmemes@lemmy.dbzer0.com
• !mathmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone
• !loweffortmemes@walledgarden.xyz
• !lotrmemes@midwest.social
• !leftymemes@lemmy.dbzer0.com
• !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
• !femcelmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone
• !fedimemes@feddit.uk

your "boycott" was already happening naturally because (ayk) lemmy.ml's mods are insufferable

I criticized the CCP on lemmy.ml and got called racist and got banned lmao

Edit: thank you for the link, Lazycog@sopuli.xyz!

I stand by every single comment that's been removed from this platform. Some of them were removed for good reason, one of them was a brain fart that I shouldn't have posted in the first place, but I'm happy to have y'all investigate my moderation history

ETA: If you read this, and then replied to a comment that's already been removed from a community I'm banned from, you're an idiot. I literally can't interact with you. Why not reply to this comment?

As long as it's not only lemmy.world communities you start growing. Centralization won't lead to good outcomes anywhere.

Yeah do this,
So after we can finally talk about mods on LW, being pro Israel and moderating comments against IDF.

Oh ? That will not happen ? 😱

Im already blocked on many of their subs. so I'm boycotting and I don't have a choice

.ml and .world are a classic war in lemmy
