    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.

    This is some nice advice but

    Treat them like you would any of your male friends.

    Don’t do this. Understand that you wouldn’t do this with any random guy either. As with any new acquaintances everyone is cautious in the beginning and women more so. Whether you find the new girl appealing or not all you have to do is cautiously get to know her through your interactions with her, like any other relations you may build with initial strangers and get used to their presence and predilections.

    “the 20-year streak of measles being eliminated in the us” is the road.

    You are wrong, it would be the point of impact according to your method of marking. Also the streak itself is not signified by the road but the people alive already in the bus, again according to your logic. As The Quuuuuill mentioned, “The meme is flexible. Your attitude is not”
