Depends on whether you're using an app or website, but there should be a way regardless

You've never seen superfans print out and bind a webnovel, huh 😛

Ah. Just to clarify, I was not talking about this specific community in OP's post, but the practice of blocking in general. There have been studies showing the negative effects of blocking on communities by allowing negative / malicious content to go unchecked

Problem is how much it costs after the DLC

Blocking and not calling out bullshit is actually a problem because it allows malicious users to freely spread their bullshit without any opposing views. This makes those views seem more widespread and legitimate than they actually are.

Have you read through the thread? Tons of examples of admin abuse. I fully expect to cop another ban for this comment thread soon.

Also, I would disagree with calling defederation 'censorship'. Nobody was prevented from speaking up. Refusal to engage with somebody you disagree with is not censorship.

There's a lot of irony to this comic being posted on .ml, given the current discussion about censorship issues on this instance

If you're getting your news via your smartphone or pc, you're using an app

I'll go out on a limb and guess China was mentioned somewhere

Sheldon would like a word

Not really any different on lemmy, sadly

Why are you attacking somebody who's backing you up? Sheesh

Kind of sad how many communities are on .ml. Would like to block the entire server but lose too much content.

If they're posting on a .ml community, it'll get censored

Don't think LW has the language filter active. .ml is the one that has it active that I'm aware of

Gun to his head? Conspiracy theories? WTF?

How is 'resign or be fired' in any way a 'voluntary' resignation?

Not really, given there would have been test runs approved by NASA first

1st world countries like Singapore and Norway have mandatory service too

Late last week, Smith said he got a call from the company that contracted his position with USAID. He was told he could either resign or be terminated over “personality differences.”

Yeah, it was entirely his choice to resign voluntarily /s

Trump is not a 'deflection' from Biden. Trump is the only alternative, and a much worse one for pretty much everybody on the planet, even if some don't realise it.
