Yesterday, I created my account on Lemmy.ml because I want to become mod on [email protected]. And I posted this comic on [email protected] It's SDV game cutscene where Shane a NPC go watch Sports game with you kiss you accidentily but It was part of that event also player kiss Shane(NPC) back. Here's video for more context. And someone claimed it have SA(Sexual Assualt) From Hexbear Ofcourse. So, I should delete it. I said it was a part of game cutscene. And If main player doesn't love the Shane(NPC) then they don't need to complete this event. And Just as a sarcasm I added Yeah we shoule delete this entire community because this game is Woke like Woke Detector Steam Group said. That user think I am some anti-woke dickhead something like that IDK. And tell me to Kill My Self. What I do now? I wanted on become mod on .ml because community was already well established. I message dessaline but I am sure he will not unbanned me. :(

Did I really did something wrong? I don't know If I really did something wrong.

Link for that comic if embed doesn't work.

Your post made me move to lemm.ee. You can export your communities from lemmy.ml to a new instance off your choosing using the included tool on the web version off them.

Doesn't seem to me like you did anything serious enough to be banned from a whole platform, but moderators and administrators are individuals and some of them can't be objective when something presses their person hot buttons. If a right-wing Christian claimed abortion was Sexual Assault, that obviously would not automatically make abortion an off-limits topic, but I can imagine a moderator thinking differently. I agree with your response that nobody was being forced into anything, but using loaded words like "woke" is a good way to get yourself labeled by someone who thinks in memes.

Probably more fit for [email protected] , not sure this post will stay here

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

I think it's largely fine for this community but a crosspost to that community would also be a good idea.

The mod could argue that this discussion isn't beneficial to the wide audience of this community (and that would be understandable), so better safe than sorry

Give yourself a high five (ok, fine, I guess that's just clapping, whatever) and move to a better instance!

[–] [email protected] 50 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Make your own community on an instance that's not full of assholes

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Done [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Nice, did you subscribe to it from the largest instances so that it's more visible? If not I can help with that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

If not I can help with that.

Yes, Please I have only 3 account ( lemm.ee, ani.social and lemy.lol).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

On it, I think I covered most of them

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

You're welcome, good luck with this community!

Why is lemmy.ml full of assholes? Wasn't that one of the original lemmy instances? Genuinely asking

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 hours ago

Lemmy was created by and for assholes, but a few other people have found it too.

It's because if you aren't participating in the groupthink delusions you will be banned by extremely fragile mods. So people who aren't assholes tend to leave.

As far as I know it was started by the original lemmy developers which made the software because they felt persecuted for their beliefs on normie social media. Lemmy just happened to be around when the reddit CEO decided to f up reddit so everyone started using it despite the creators not being well adjusted people.

Edit: just so I'm not misinforming here's what they said themselves about the origin https://lemmy.ml/post/70319

I don't get how extremist leftist content ends up attracting people who are against woke stuff in stardew really but over time I've gotten the vibe the ml and hexbear people are in general more combative and angry about things.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

because they felt persecuted for their beliefs on normie social media

And they wanted to become the persecutors themselves instead, forcing everyone into their rigid ideology to a worse degree than even said normie social media seeking to make everything advertiser friendly.

It was created by the Lemmy developers and is one of the original Lemmy instances. And while Lemmy itself is fantastic, unfortunately the developers are not. They are tankies, extreme authoritarian communists.

Other than their other instances lemmygrad and Hexbear, lemmy.ml tries to look more moderate and has many active and great communities. But if you post things they dislike, you might run into similar troubles like OP.

Lemmy.ml is doomed. You were unlucky to pick the wrong instance. It's one of the downside of federated Lemmy that .ml is the oldest instance, leading to many cool communities being hosted there. The only way is to start that community on another instance that is not .ml or .world and staying patient.

Hexbear and lemnygrad are not even a choice.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Seriously. When I learned that the "ml" stood for Marxism-Leninism I almost had second thoughts about leaving the R-site.

The ml TLD belongs to Mali BTW. A semi-failed African state which just kicked out the "imperialist" French soldiers it had previously invited to put down its jihadist insurgents, in order to replace them with Russian mercenaries generously sent by Putin. You can't make this stuff up.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago

The community is a very weird mix of Anti-Imperialists, communists and islamists.
They are not openly Russia-friendly, but they are very uncritical towards authoritarian systems. From pro-palestine over pro Hamas to pro Iran, and then you are almost there.

I sometimes wonder if it is just the US-american left going insane these days or if some corners of Lemmy are under the influence of Russian and Chinese troll factories.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Didn't Mali order a recall of all ml domains a while back due to an incident where military emails being sent to .mil were accidentally sent to .ml domains instead.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

They recalled free domains. Lemmy.ml is paid

[–] [email protected] 16 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Join lemm.ee and ignore lemmy.ml

[–] [email protected] 17 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

Your community doesn't need to be isolated to a single instance. Your home instance, lemm.ee, can be used as one.

Be happy that you lost nothing and gained less toxicity in your life, at best you make a account on a instance that either doesn't federate the .ml instances or one that is blocked by them (like mine) there is a pretty active gaming community on sh.itjust.works, and you can make your own community if you want to.
