The modlog messages are there so that you can state your reasoning and people cannot omit it. If you don't write that they got banned for being rude in dms then they can spin it however they want.

You've been instance-banned. The multiple comm banning is just how this is seen in the modlog.

PS:

This is a problem for everybody. How do we address this?

Don't use .ml comms unless you are OK with campist propaganda.

If you want to have a thorough, deep discussion with tankies about the Tiannamen massacre, there's some who will debate with you about it without end. Just be prepared to go for days and dig deep into sources, and don't try to do it on .ml comms as the tankies there consider all criticism of Chinese politics as "racism".

Try pinging their lemmy accounts as well

Par for the course for hierarchical ML orgs. Toe the line. Don't make waves. Don't make the party look bad. This is sadly not an isolated phenomenon with top down hierarchies.

Disappointing to see the .ml mods enable this behaviour but not surprising.

PTB.

Quality over quantity

Hey I managed to miss this one. Can you open this feature requests on the issue tracker?

The internal comments to a thread, yes. The sorting of the threads however was newest comment first

Enshittification is not the worry. However we're extremely vulnerable to spam and dead internet.

Keepass and syncthing if you want have full control. Keepass and something like dropbox if you don't mind some cloud

That's pretty fucking cool! Make it sort by new comments (instead of votes) by default and you have an old-fashioned forum!

For me it stopped me plenty of times.
