To be blunt, lemmy.world has always seemed to emulate reddit too much for my comfort, even in vetting registrations. 9/10 of the bad enlightened centrist takes I've seen here have come from lemmy.world users who are clearly reddit transplants.
Lemmy.world is the biggest lemmy instance, it makes sense that they attract everyone even those type of people. They don't understand the concept of distribution, of course they're gonna go where the number is largest. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the admins fault for the people that went there.

Wh- Which part of my comment led to you quoting Winston Churchill?
Opinion duly noted
That was pretty dismissive but ok I guess?
I'm just not sure what it has to do with my critique of that instance being redditesque.
Guy is all over multiple threads fellating the world admins.
He quoted Winston fucking Churchill at me lmao
Edit: Nvm it was a different fellator who quoted Churchill
Oh no I wrote 2 comments about why people might not want to be liable for federal crimes committed by other people on their hosted instance. Really bending over backwards here.
I literally responded to you in another thread but go off
So you're as engaged as I am getting angry about a take you don't agree with, but I'm the one who gets homophobic attacks directed at him?
Cool cool cool.
Wow you just can’t keep a story straight, can you?

Your comment was designed as a critique of how they operate in response to their decision to remove these communities. I am explaining the likely motivation and how it is coming from a different angle. If what I said is irrelevant, then frankly so is what you said. I am responding in context to the post you are commenting on. I'd really like to not get bogged down in this pedantic/meta discussion though. If you don't want to engage with what I said then simply don't. Instead you chose to be dismissive/condescending.
