Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian? - eviltoast

I just realised, I can’t post anything on lemmy.ml

So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there’s a new moderator.

All posts and comments talking about China, Jinping, Russia, and Putin have been deleted and users banned

    Yes yes, the authorities should deal with them but would you support them? Would you recommend their software if it was good, would you use their products?

      Right now I am using their software - so are you. Even though there was again a post about one of the devs. In the very best case those where some rather controversial statements about how the Chinese government treats Uyghurs. I strongly disagree with those statements and am still using lemmy and suggest it to friends. IMO the technical solutions is sound and much better than reddit.

        I mean, you didn’t answer the question though. My post was literally just two questions and you didn’t answer either.
