The admin banned people for saying that calling everything transpobia isn’t the way to make you seem reasonable and all non blahaj TLC get removed by default.

    Nah their admin is drama queen. Unfortunately being trans doesn’t makes your decisions automatically right and everyone else transphobic.

    I’m not talking about this particular case and I think their defederation from Lemmy NSFW was also stupid.

      The nice thing about the Fediverse is that people can go forum shopping. Blåhaj is an instance that chooses to defederate too much rather than too little, making sure to create a safe space even if this safe space is smaller. That’s between them and their users. As long as there are users who appreciate this approach to moderation, it’s good for the Fediverse that such an instance exists.

    I don’t think post titles in this community should include personal bias.

    “lemmy.blahaj.zone admin announces defederation from programming.dev because of controversial comments made by their admin” would have been better and much more factual.

        Cambridge Dictionary defines “controversial” as “causing disagreement or discussion”. The admin’s comments did just that, so objectively speaking they are controversial.

            That’s your opinion, which I’m saying should be excluded from the post title.

              Its not a opinion, the stuff you wrote makes it seem like the blahaj admin has a case or anything besides a powertripp about a game.

                Their cause is “their website, their rules”. They really don’t need to justify what other independent websites they share content with.

                  That’s pretty idiotic in case of a federated service. you can just close registration and delete the user database so nobody can do anything “anti trans” on your instance if you act like a child on such hilariously small issues.

    I kinda thought the ‘cissie’ name-calling was a little obstructive to proper conversation. I get that some people are really offended by the ‘cis’ name, and I’m not sure the writer didn’t choose that jeer intentionally because of that.

    Looking at the comment thread and seeing that it’s all hexbear users makes me think whatever he said was justified.

      Kind of fucked up reasoning, but you’re not wrong, it was pretty harmless, but the point of blahaj is specifically to be a trans space, no matter how small that ends up being so…

      Good luck, I guess.

        It’s perfectly fine to have ultra safe spaces, but I do wonder why they’re then putting them on the Fediverse.

        I mean there are literally people in the thread saying they outright leave blahaj for this shit and it’s 100% justified.

          Basically. I understand that if we speak about burggit but man ani.social has a 0 tolerance rule for legal reasons.
