I was in Fediverse a while before. And I felt sick for its political extremism and harassment base on political views and wars between lefts VS rights (And both of them start to centrists).

I remember I can being a transwoman and a “NAZI” in the same day on Mastodon and Pleroma, both of labels are just caused by they are unable to handle a person who is not left or right in their mind. (I had Misskey, Mastodon and Pleroma instances before.)

My political belief is individualism, and I think rejecting vaccination is personal freedom.- Can this statement get me a ban here? Well, this is my faith.

Can I forbid people upvote and downvote me in my posts? If this is the feature not developed yet, will this feature add in future? I think that makes people easier to being manipulated.

There are a lot of bannings on https://lemmy.ml/modlog how could I know who is the mod gave the bans?

I would be thankful if I can get the answers here.

Edited:

One more question:

I don’t love Adolf Hitler, but what if someone setup a lemmy instance called “We love Adolf Hitler”, would the software developer start a huge drama, and block everyone who don’t block the “We love Adolf Hitler” instance? I saw such kind of drama before.

    Given your account age, I doubt you took a lot of time to interact or read what has already been discussed here (and on other instances). Why the questions about banning (makes it seem like a ban-evasion)? Also, why the antivax/freedom example? Why not observe and try to understand the culture? If you don’t like it you can make your own instance (or find another one). In my opinion, if you have to worry about getting banned before starting then maybe you should not use it to begin with.

      I feel that this is a recognizable and common type of troll. The “just asking questions” and just “wanting to understand” troll. What they do is ask what is allowed and use that as a tone in which to elevate a range of troll subjects, like antivax, freezepeach, half-joking nazi references, to try and make those subjects more visible and more normalized.

      It’s the way trolling is done as of 2022.

        This person was maybe trying to find mod activity to time the raid.

      I rather the developers give their opinion by asking.

        Dev != admin/mod != community (although, I guess there is some overlap). Also, write to the devs directly instead. Why even post to asklemmy then? I do not understand why the fear of getting banned is even an issue. Read the rules, behave accordingly, and I doubt you would get banned. Posts like these are suspicious as they suggest intent of (i) pushing the limits of the rules, (ii) pushing content that is controversial (for the sake of controversy/trolling/…) or (iii) evading previous bans with a new user.
