Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Tired of government censorship, whether it's left or right wing. They both do it, and it sucks either way. Then both sides will "champion free speech" when they're not the ones in power.

You're completely right, both sides have speech they find unacceptable. But lets try to look at it a little closer, what kind of speech does the left try to ban?
Mostly stuff like racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, stuff that hurts others and keeps them down. But i agree, sometimes they take it too far. A lot of left leaning people are very sensitive.
What kind of speech does the right want to ban? Mostly stuff about their human rights violations, as far as i can tell.
Two sides of the same coin, i guess.

Some people are just into that kind of thing.

One more reason to use Lemmy.

I feel like as an A’s fan. The same thing happened to Reddit. Owners turned it into a shit hole.

Moderators are outraged but will forget that in a few days and won't leave reddit anyway.
The ones who would leave, have left and been replaced. Just like any other user. Why focus on mods specifically?

IMO, as much as I dislike Reddit, moderation is terrible here and there's some niche subs that cannot exist here because of the lack of moderation.

I agree and haven't returned but lemmy hasn't hit critical mass yet.... Like I don't recall a post with over a hundred replies. Reddit used to have over a thousand on every reply on the first page.

Like 6 good ones and a bunch of the same tired comments about poop knives, broken arms, same, this.
Here, at least most of the answers are real human beings trying to contribute to a conversation.

How many of those thousands are actual good comments though? Last time I was there, I swear the majority of comments were from bots reposting the same comments that were in previous threads. It felt peak dead-internet.

Might be your settings. When I flip the front page to "Active" most of the posts have hundreds of comments (though I prefer setting it to "Top Six Hours").

I like "Hot" and "Top Six Hours" myself. "Scaled" and "New" aren't bad if you're looking for more content.

I also sort by top six hours but subs related to my profession or religious traditions both get too much outside noise from folks who view posts by 'all' and feel welcome to flood subs with comments contrary to the intent of the sub. Active moderation could help but there's just not good moderation under most subs.

Reminds me of the scene in 300 when he asks how many warriors they brought. We brought real comments.

Hell yeah. Welcome!
