Mods of world news banning news they don't like
Even though that piece of information can be verified by other credible sources (like NBC News). This is a news post they personally didn't like.
This is not the first time this particular mod, who has self-proclaimed to "hate biggotry" but seems to be more about "love censorship", has done something similar.
You're viewing a single thread.
Thanks! Didn't know about those.
Edit: Seems I knew about !globalnews@lemmy.zip as I'm already subscribed but that community is empty. So probably some federation issues, or is it really empty?
Edit 2: Nevermind, I always forget I can check the community at its origin server.
Thanks! Didn’t know about those.
They come up more and more as it seems like every few days there's a thread about LW World News
It's the benefit of being able to have a central comm where people can post about these mod actions.
We need to create a scoreboard with which comms have been most accused of having PTB and what percentage of those accusations have been verified by the community votes. And then provide potential alternatives to each, so that you don't have to be in every comment section linking people :D
I like that!
I'm lazy and just trawl through c/all most days, but it would be very nice to see the most pernicious PTB miscreants and maybe avoid the subs they mod.
Yes, I was thinking about the scoreboard too 😅
