  Lemmy.ml apparently. When you type B…I…T…C…H it automatically turns to removed. They’re treating you like some kid who can’t handle grown-up words. Switch to another instance if you want more freedom with your choice of words.

    Lemmy.ml banned me on my Startrek.website account years ago during the height of my posting. Like when I was posting 20 things every hour or two. Why? Posted some Jimmy Neutron meme about Disney having a first gay character and it being the 14th one this month. Title was like "Can always be the first in China at least for a couple minutes" or something along those lines.

    From what I heard from some of the people who worked on .ml behind the scenes, they had to reverse the ban because a bunch of people started asking why there was no new content and other people started to realize it was because I had gotten banned.

    Have never posted on lemmy.ml since and don't bother to interact with the instance at all. I don't have it blocked because not all users are like the admins but like fuck am I ever adding to that shithole ever again. I thought that was the worst I'd ever deal with from admins... and then I started getting personally harassed by the startrek.website admins across multiple websites and basically forgot about lemmy.ml entirely.

      But, isn’t it wonderful that we can have a fediverse where there can be annoying instances like those ones, but if you don’t like it you can just move or block?

      The fediverse is chaotic but I sure prefer chaos to having one corporate overlord with one point of view, and one goal, which is getting ads in front of as many eyeballs as possible.

      Blocking an instance only blocks you from seeing communities there, it doesn’t block you from seeing users posting in other communities.

        This is a fundamental flaw of the system if you ask me.

        Not being able to blanket block the users of an instance sucks.

        Well, there is a type of censorship I guess. Some apps don’t allow people to post bad words like 卧槽，and so on. So people usually abbreviate the bad words to the first letter of each pinyin. So 卧槽 becomes “wc”.

        This isn’t just for bad words tho, there’s many online slangs like xswl which means 笑死我了, and many more.

        So, what are the facts relating to China’s Social Credit System (SoCS)? First, a system does exist, but it is very different from what is imagined by many critics outside China. The biggest disconnect is around the notion of scores. Some commentators seem to imagine that a magic algorithm draws from AI cameras and internet surveillance all over the country to calculate a score that determines everyone’s place in society. In reality, the SoCS is not the techno-dystopian nightmare we fear: it is lowly digitalized, highly fragmented, and primarily focuses on businesses. Most importantly, such a score simply does not exist.

        merics.org/…/chinas-social-credit-score-untanglin…

        Classic lib move: dunking on nonexistent “ebil ccp” systems that started off as rumors mere days after the west decided it would clamp down on any semblance of internet freedom - upon a backdrop of rapidly burgeoning fascism and concentration camps. The US State Department has effortlessly oriented you.

    The more I see people from .ml and the more I learn about it The more I think anyone on .ml is either just objectively stupid or ignorant of how stupid the instance is.

    source

    • zod000@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Not all of us. I just read what it said on the main page “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers” and thought that sounded good. I’m sure a lot of people that were new to lemmy figured the instance run by the devs themselves would be a safe bet. There also wasn’t nearly as much drama around .ml back then, but it honestly hasn’t been enough of an issue to make me create an account on a new instance and switch.

      source
    • Honytawk@feddit.nl ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I think it has to do with what they are used to. They never knew the freedom other instances provided.

      Also, don’t you have to read like the Communist Manifesto to even join lemmy,ml? Sounds to me only something objectively stupid people would do to join an internet forum.

      Anywhere but lemmygrad or hexbear, really. lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.world, lemmy.zip, or lemmy.blahaj.zone are all good ones. I'm quite partial to kbin.earth (although you'd need a different app), and there's also piefed instances.

      • Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        Dbzer0 is pretty solid. Never had any issues with the admins, they post pro piracy shit, and they even ask for your input before implementing rule changes. It’s pretty comfortable and meets my values well enough.

      Literally anywhere that isn’t lemmygrad or hexbear will usually be better. You could go to an instance with open sign up until you find somewhere else, but they tend to house a lot of closeted reactionaries, I assume because those people like the anonymity. Personally I just looked up instances to see which ones I liked. They’ll have a description of who they are and if sign ups require an application you just say why you want to join their instance. It’s not a huge deal really.

      source
    • ikidd@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Might want to consider piefed instances as well, it’s a fediverse front-end not developed by the weaklings that decided to censor your innocuous words.

      I should do that too…

    • Gerudo@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      My 2 cents is lemmy.zip. it’s the most like the lost treasure that was lemm.ee. it leaves a lot of censoring up to the user

      source
    • realitista@lemmus.org ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Literally any non-ml instance would be a way better choice. Also avoid hexbear. The rest are pretty solid. I’m happy with speed of Lemmus.org, but lemmy.world worked fine for me too.

      Chose this one since I’ve heard (and from what I’ve seen) that like lemm.ee, the .zip instances only block the REALLY problematic stuff NSFL and illegal content, leaving it to the user to fill their own block lists rather than defederating

        I actually teach the kids in my life that intent is more important than “magic naughty words,” so they can say bitch all they want so long as they aren’t being hateful. So maybe starting from the assumption that the status quo is reasonable and has merit isn’t the smartest idea?

  growing up with a single mom, an older sister, and a younger sister… there were only a couple word that were never acceptable

  I could say shit fuck asshole motherfucker and so on

  but the words Cnt and Btch were absolutely unacceptable

  I remember one time, I was about to call my little sister a B*tch and I didn’t even know my mom was in the room but before I could even get the word out of my mouth, she smacked me so hard. I was like BUT THEY SAY IT ON TV SO IT MUST BE OK. Yeah that was the day I got a good lesson in how rules work for something and not for other but the rules mom makes are the only real rules you have to follow in life
