This makes no sense to me. There’s people in the comments literally telling me to go kill myself and that’s fine but, me politely disagreeing is worthy of a 30 day ban.

    I don’t see how making my own instance solves anything. I’m not posting from lemmy.ml account to begin with.

      From their point of view, only you think there’s something to be solved.
      A major point of federization is not having to deal with the undesirable rabble. To have your own little slice of the internet where everybody gets along.

      You don’t get along, so you don’t belong. Instead, you are very welcome to find or make an instance where you do belong and can engage in conversations freely.

      Lemmy’s solution is to make the problem go away, which is why in its eyes, there is nothing to solve.

        I think the idea that this is a negative but to me it is not. If a domain or magazine is run poorly then folks then I don’t want to go to it. I just want the individual ability to block at all levels working well and would love it both ways. I learned my lesson from mmo’s. A completely horrible cesspit of a chat can become pretty decent with just a dozen or so blocks. People who block everyone on a whim. Well thats great as I doubt their discourse is going to be beneficial. folks that don’t ban even though someones pushing the line will be rewareded with a richer experience.

      It helps if you want to go on your own banning spree for people not having the same opinion as you!
