    The problem with this reasoning is that many of the popular communities are actually on lemmy.ml, and they’re not so easy to replace.

    Very true, I saw a post about censorship posted on !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world that happened in !comics@lemmy.ml (instead of another instance with the same subject community) possibly because of this reason OP mentioned. This complaint post was also deleted from the community because it was violating the rules which I suppose it was since this was the reason:

    The title of the post in the picture above was the reason given by the comics mod:

    My unpopular opinion however is that simply de-federating won’t help as it just promotes those instances into becoming louder echo chambers. I think the simpler solution would be to have a dedicated community for mod abuse (I’m aware of !modabuse@lemmy.world but .world blocked /c/piracy so…) , so users can be aware of said issues and create or migrate to different communities as we see fit. Besides, users can simply block entire instances for themselves. Please don’t comment on the paradox of tolerance as I just mentioned blocking for oneself already.

    P.S.

    Devs please make it easier to browse the modlog, having to press the next button is bafflingly tedious. I had to resort to editing the url to browse faster, add a jump to by time/date or something.

    Obama was literally against gay marriage.

    That’s just one more reason I didn’t like him.

    Biden’s policies have been so much more progressive

    He was a slightly better politician than Clinton so I didn’t hate him, now he’s still supporting Israel thus my aversion.

    it’s weird and creepy to be a “fan” of government officials.

    Tell that to all the people going to all the politicians rallies.

    I don’t forsee any president ever meeting your criteria.

    Bernie.

    The other commenters don’t seem to understand the difference between boycotting and gatekeeping…

    I’m with you man, I haven’t bought any Ubisoft stuff for over 10 years now. And the more I learned the more I got surprised by how shovelware can be made even worse.
