It’s not world news over there, it’s world “news”. The admins and mods of lemmy.ml will allow all manner of, and even post some themselves, pure Russian propaganda over there, it won’t be removed and this user won’t be banned (they continuously post a bunch of this crap).
Join the lemmy.ml boycott today! No posts, comments or upvotes on comms that are on the lemmy.ml instance!

i have high hopes for PieFed
Yeah, I’m hoping there’s a s gradual adoption of PieFed over time, and with that at least an incentive for Lemmy to keep up with features over time

Yea, but unfortunately it’s unlikely to happen because it’s written in Rust, which is a difficult language so there aren’t many devs to tackle it compared to other languages.
What we can do though is to call for wider defederation, there’s precedent because so many instances defed from the rest of the Tankie Triad, we should be petitioning those admins to simply treat .ml the same regardless of how big of a “support hub” it is for the Lemmy server software or how many “big” comms (by subscriber count, by MAUs, only one .ml comm breaks the top 15) they have
Can we please not normalize “tankie triad”, that’s incredibly cringey. Kinda gives off maga vibes in my opinion.
Too late, it’s catchy and it fits. There are leftist spaces here that don’t kiss up to autocracies and spread propaganda that nobody has a major problem with.

Yeah, frankly I’d say that’s a fairly large chunk of the place including myself as far as preferences go. It’s pretty rare to see anyone with actual conservative takes here, at least not ones that are real loud about it.
The common take from the triad (.ml, hexbear, lemmygrad) is that places like China/Russia/N Korea are supreme bastions of human decency and models of well functioning societies that all those imperialist assholes of the west should be bowing down to.
