I want to remind everyone in here that Lemmy is self-hosted and federated. If you want to make your post visible on their server or community, you have to abide by the rules they set even if they or their enforcement may seem arbitrary or stupid. It’s their server/community you want to put your stuff on and they do not have a duty to accept it. Lemmy allows you to block those communities or instances or even to create or host your own.
No, I’m not appealing to that. Fuck nazis. (I don’t actually see how my comment could be interpreted as that since my comment was in response to users complaining about having their content removed from other instances or communities, which if anything would make them the free speechers (I’m not saying that they are))
Lemmy, in contrast to centralized platforms doesn’t force you to be restricted to the rulings of a single group of people under threat of being barred from using the entire platform.
My point is, when you are talking on another instance, you are a guest there and it is completely expected for them to kick you out if you don’t abide by their house rules or if they don’t want you there anymore for whatever reason. While it doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be criticized for it, the impression I got from the comments on this post is that they think it is some kind attack to a basic human right to remove their comments from a foreign instance and that admins should allow all content your instance allows.
The same can be said about the reactions people from other instances display towards news of some instance defederating from the instance they are on.
