    In the current internet it's sadly necessary to enforce very strict rules to keep the space civil. The vast majority of active users are trolls (just look at the success of Toilet Paper's Kirk's campaigns against intellectuals). Keeping bro-culture out is not a bad idea since it's a quite toxic culture often hostile towards women and queer persons.

    If you're looking for bro spaces, go somewhere (or create a comm) that's accepting of it. If you like the space, simply follow the rules.

    [bro] is when neither friend, buddy, pal, dude, girl, maboy and magirl work because they are too friendly nor you little shit, fuckhead, asshat, dickface and pussy work because they’re too insulting.

      Got the same message LOL, I was also one of the down voters.

      Had no idea mods can see voting stats.

      This mod is weird and creepy for the message alone, stalking down voters WTF? Obviously thin skinned and on a power trip.

      The freedom of anyone being able to start their own instance, then get a load of the ones that own their own servers... Some will be assholes on a power trip. It's bound to happen.

        I was never in the exchange. I just downvoted. It wasn’t anything like that. Just how people normally use the term.

              You should link it like this: !maga.place

              Edit: Nevermind, that doesn't work. Maybe that's a Lemmy only thing.

                Lots of botted communities too. I’d rather posts come from real people and my “All” feed not get flooded.

                  Ah, you're right. I think this is for instances:

                  @[email protected]

                  It doesn't work for me (400 error), but it might be defederated?

                      Seriously, the amount of mods here power tripping "for the greater good of the world" is ridiculous. Good for their ego, bad for everyone else. But again like someone else said, you can just move somewhere else and avoid shitty moderators easily.

                        Unpopular opinion: y'all call everything you don't like "reddit" (while the average Lemmy user is a lot of what people who don't use either dislike about reddit)

                          It's already been a playground for mods with an agenda.

                          The good thing is that we can all start up alternate communities without the abuse. The problem is that it's rare to find admins/mods that don't abuse their power.

                          Remember everyone, when this user says "mods with an agenda", he's using a dogwhistle for this.

                            On Voyager you can set tags on users and add an arbitrary amount of up or downvotes to their account. Looks like another will get the -1000 downvote + twat tag award!

                                  The fascists will always use available technology to create their own safe spaces. They're cowards.

                                  However, we can and should do everything we can to make that experience as miserable and unusable as possible for them.

                                      Yeah were there already, I once said “that’s lunacy, it would never work” in a political news thread and got removed for “abelism” lol

                                      And that’s when I’ve been told why, most times it’s because you disagree with the echo chamber and you get a removal or straight up ban.

                                      Federation at its core promotes echo chambers because instance admins can just defed from any instances that popularly have different opinions. But it's also a benefit because really safe spaces are also just echo chambers (and less extremely just "a place where you don't have to argue with nazis" means shutting out some opinions) and they have their place because sometimes you just don't want to deal with the world's bullshit.

                                      The nice thing is that you can choose an instance that fits your own needs for that and still interact with others that prefer different moderation, so long as your own instance isn't part of the defed list. So if someone wants to argue with nazis but still participate in idk lgbt spaces, they can, and the nazis still won't bother the lgbt space.

                                      And if everything fails, you can also host your own.
