Get a load of this guy. Apparently, putting forward “beliefs and ideology” are against their code of conduct.

His comment about blocking lemmygrad don’t seem that bad to me, it’s getting a bit annoying seeing lost dotworlders thinking they’re the first one to ever say “communism bad.”

    I suspect that dot world is one tool in a larger plan to manage the decline of centralised social media to ensure that the capitalists still control online discourse. I can’t otherwise think of an explanation for how Reddit allowed so many users to flock to a couple of instances. Previously, mentioning Lemmy on Reddit would be hidden from users if not outright deleted. Reddit did not tolerate the competition. Now they plan to defederate from one (soon to be two, no doubt) instances that started on Reddit but were kicked out for left-ist views. And after that they plan to federate with the corporate instances.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if dotworld specifically was administered by people related to Reddit Inc. The admins are generally very technically competent and it grew so fast with barely any technical difficulties that I wouldn’t put it past them from being at least supported by some larger tech company.
