replyLemmy has the same energy as ice: a bunch of rejects from other mod communities showing up to render their version of justice upon federated folks
replyYeah, the primary instance (lemmy.ml) isn't the best.
replyI use mander.xyz, it's science focused, but they also have a policy of only de-federating instances that host CSAM.
Isn't the biggest instance Lemmy.world? I thought .ml was the oddball fringe dominated by tankies.
replyWhere is that policy located? I could not find it.
replyTheir /instances page also only shows a single blocked instance, whereas something like programming.dev shows lots of questionable instances blocked.
Honestly, I couldn't find it either, but the owner talks about it in his post about blocking threads https://mander.xyz/post/1062661

Lemmy is server software, it's like saying you don't use phpBB because it has bad mods
