Man I just use this because Reddit is bullshit. What's wrong with lemmy.world?

For the same reasons Reddit sucks. They got too large and they think they're in charge of Lemmy now. The staff there have a lot of issues, and they think they can use their power to control Lemmy. I'd recommend leaving, because users being spread out is what makes Lemmy resistant to the issues that made Reddit horrible. It's fairly easy to change instances.

A lot of people will speculate and exaggerate and blow little things out of proportion. I don't like Lemmy.world because they are Anticommunist as a policy. That's about it.

They're (albeit Liberal) Zionists, they prosecute stuff like "Uyghur genocide denial" that is like 5-year-old propaganda that should be able to be dismissed with the benefit of hindsight.

Leftist instances have the forthrightness to just say "If you're a reactionary we'll ban you", but Liberals - like the Lemmy.world admins and moderators - have to hide behind a smokescreen of Socialists breaking technical rules - when, say, a Zionist denying the Palestinian genocide wouldn't get the same reaction.
