  • If he’s literally harassing people you should take action. It sounds like that might not be the case though, since neither LBZ nor .world have recent record of mod actions against Blaze other than you guys power tripping and removing a post critical of you - only to then restore it after it gained traction on c/PowerTrippingBastards.

    I’ve only seen Blaze be critical of you and the other mods here. If that’s what you’re referring to, then it isnt harrasment but dissent against you and the other mods’ abuse of power. If you’re referring to some other instances of Blaze harassing community members, then take impartial action to protect the community and dont complain about it here.







  • Weirdly defensive.

    I dont remember that decision on y’alls part as particularly controversial, rather the drama - from some non-blahaj members - surrounding Ada’s announcement following it.

    We’re talking about moderation policies here after all, not any one user.

    Also, it was in PugJesus’s post about his departure that you first mentioned that the 196 mods had already been discussing moving to .world. A comment that you’ve subsequently deleted. Seems odd to bring it up at that time if it wasn’t in some way related.





  • My money’s on they don’t want Ada going over their heads and mandating that neopronouns will be respected. That’s the only high profile drama that I’ve seen on Blahaj in many months. They can call it differences on the back end all they want, but I have to see this as a move away from pro-trans moderation policies, since they’re leaving the instance that’s explictly pro-trans.


  • I strongly disagree with this decision and the reasoning behind it. Blahaj is, in my opinion, the best place for this community specifically because of the strong moderation and policies of Ada and other admins here.

    Lemmy.world is also the worst instance I can think of outside of the big three tankie instances. It contributes further to the centralization of Lemmy as a whole (since 196 has been one of the most active communities on the entire platform). In my opinion, the .world crowd’s liberal and pro-colonialist/capitalist tendencies are a terrible fit for this community.

    I’d have rather seen Blahaj defederate from .world than 196 move there, even if it meant less content and engagement. At least the cultural values of the community wouldn’t have been compromised.
