What if I want to make an unpopular opinion on Luigi from the Super Mario Bros series?

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 83 points 6 days ago (6 children)

Censorship disguised as moderation. This is exactly what killed reddit. You can't have a discussion over there without getting banned, it's just individual echo chambers who all censor and ban each other

[–] frazorth@feddit.uk 16 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Or maybe, its not actually an unpopular opinion!

[–] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (2 children)

People think they have an unpopular opinion because they do not realize everyone with the same opinion was censored.

It's just a list of nouns and proper nouns. Depending on what your post is, it could be a very unpopular opinion! Censoring words is why I won't ever go back to Reddit...

Hate to break it to you but reddit isn't dead.

I still go on reddit. In a lot of ways it's a lot worse than it used to be. It's way more corporate. Huge portions of the site seem sanitized, often in obvious and eyeroll inducing ways. There's also a lot less content in general. The content that does exist is lower effort, and way more repetitive.

However in some ways it's genuinely better. The discourse is a lot less toxic than it used to be. A lot of genuine cruelty wrapped in virtue signaling that defined the site from 2018 to 2022 is either gone or greatly diminished. It's also slightly less of an echo chamber.

I think what happened is that after the mobile apocalypse, a lot of the power users left the platform. While these people contributed a lot to the site, they were also extremely toxic people with an even more warped worldview.

The mods are a reflection of this. They are more corporate, which leads to a lot of censorship like this. However it also means that scrolling is quite a bit more pleasant.

Overall I spend more time on Reddit than Lemmy. There's very little content here once you filter out all the outrage bait.

You may be on the wrong communities, i could waste a day here. I actually use reddit for ragebait (i just can't quit aitah)

Or, hear me out, maybe people were tied of way too many posts in the community being about recent politics, so moderators took action on that?

It's not a good look to be broadly banning those words, but it seems to me like there's a reasonable and obvious expansion.

[–] Cataphract@lemmy.ml 19 points 6 days ago

that's easily dissuaded by no re-posts or reddits algorithm burying those. The problem was more likely because they were popular and highly engaged so they had to step in. Fucking "spez" is in there and you still feel the need to play devil's advocate?

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Usually when I'm tired of reading about a subject I just don't click on those threads, I don't censor people

What did you say about my mother?

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 31 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Reddit mods being power tripping cucks as usual.

[–] interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That part is the exact same and worse here. Lemmy is not really decrentralized, it's just fractured. Each community still have just one "big one" by design.

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (5 children)

Difference between Reddit and Lemmy is that you can legit say "I'll start my own Lemmy, with blackjack and hookers" and expect it to make an impact.

Whereas with Reddit, whatever Spez says is law, even if it's as consistent as bird shit on a car windscreen.

Turns out hating on conservatists and praising ceo killers is too much of a popular opinion for that sub, is that what they want to say?

Green Mario sure is scary.

[–] Magnolia_@lemmy.ca 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

the neckbeard fat lards of the mods are the same here

[–] TeamAssimilation@infosec.pub 9 points 5 days ago

Knowing the average redditor, they probably had like 6900 posts about Luigi (or every of those banned words) every hour for weeks.

I don't blame the mods for dealing that way with karma-addicted redditards.

[–] pixelscript@lemm.ee 13 points 6 days ago

What is "holiday" on this list for?

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 8 points 5 days ago

Well thank gawd they're here to make sure the ruling oligarchs don't feel the slightest shred of the anxiety that us poors feel 24 hours a day.

Damnit. I just joined this site to try and get away from Reddit mods who are power hungry.

[–] PiperTheJournalist@discuss.online 11 points 6 days ago (3 children)

It's a screenshot of Reddit not Lemmy.

But you are on .ml, which is one of the worst instances especially if you hate power hungry mods - also avoid .world.

[–] Redwngsfan019@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I’m new to all this so you’re speaking French to me lmao. I feel like an old person. “Back in my day we just had .com .org and .net!”

I haven't had any issues with .world... What should i be pissed about?

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago

I'd suggest "nothing" for the time being.

There are a lot of different people around here, and different people get angry about different things. So there's always going to be a lot of different bad things said about a large instance like lemmy.world. But whether or not those things are actually a real problem is for you to decide.
