Yeah, it’s not that people don’t like the lemmy.ml users, or even really their mods…

It’s (at least one of) the admins.

If they see something they don’t like on their server, they delete it and give a very very short ban. Because they don’t want those people gone. They want them enraged and chomping at the bit to come back.

It’s ran like a troll instance, and it’s not alone.

The only time they permanently ban someone, is when they see someone in a neutral place they can’t control talking about it. Advocate for people blocking them, and they don’t want anyone signed up to their instance seeing your comments
