A user on our instance reported a post on lemmynsfw as CSAM. Upon seeing the post, I looked at the community it was part of, and immediately purged all traces of that community from our instance.
I approached the admins of lemmynsfw and they assured me that the models with content in the community were all verified as being over 18. The fact that the community is explicitly focused on making the models appear as if they're not 18 was fine with them. The fact that both myself and one a member of this instance assumed it was CSAM, was fine with them. I was in fact told that I was body shaming.
I'm sorry for the lack of warning, but a community skirting the line trying to look like CSAM isn't a line I'm willing to walk. I have defederated lemmynsfw and won't be reinstating it whilst that community is active.
Yeah, so this is my account on here, here to tell you that Ada banned the above account for calling them out. Someone who responds to criticism by lashing out like that does NOT need to be administrating an instance for marginalized people. That is a recipe for disaster. Making sweeping changes with no regard to community opinions, banning people who disagree with you, shit. I think I definitely made the right choice to pick a different instance. The lemmyverse needs an instance for lgbt+ folk that isn't run by little dictators in training. So go ahead and ban this account too. Let them see how fragile you really are.
Edit: more telling that they are more concerned with censoring criticism than the bigoted comments in this thread 🤣
I deleted your reply because you replied from a lemmy.world account, despite my post making it clear this thread is intended for blahaj lemmy users. You're welcome to repost it from your blahaj account.
And your use of "fragile" as a pejorative is interesting. Protecting folk who are already fragile is exactly what I'm trying to do here.
And yet I see multiple posts from lemmy.world that are older that haven't been removed.
Because they aren't critical. It was just an excuse to delete dissenting opinions.
