Can someone recommend a good instance that has defederated from .ml

You were the one making unnecessary corrections when quoting me to begin with, and now you're so upset about it that you typed up another paragraph. Anyways, lemmy.ml does not engage in censorship while the liberal instances that keep accusing it of doing so do, and you have not provided a single argument against that even once, so I guess you must agree. Good luck becoming an English teacher or something!

Reading comprehension != grammar and spelling, you completely missed the mark there, bud. Also, you're wrong with the "y'all" thing. "Y'all" means "you all", while "ya'll" means "you will". (I do not care what Wikipedia says.)

You're a walking Dunning-Kruger lol

And your definition of censorship (which is a pretty bad and inaccurate one imo) is functionally useless here: of course it's technically also censorship when you ban a zionists account spreading hate speech, but that's you getting hung up on technicalities once again, it's getting tiring.

It's very obvious that banning single posts or users because of their own behavior is not the same a banning tens of thousands of users because of their alleged ideological alignment.

(Also very funny how you're trying to use increasingly complex grammatical structures and obscure phrasing in an attempt to sound smart, especially after you heard that English is my third language lmao. Must suck that my writing is still generally more legible than yours, even with all the grammar checks in the world.)

Look, a really easy to understand analogy:

Let's imagine there's a gang from Denmark that Swedish people allege always come across the border to yell insults at Swedes. Swedes don't like this. The lemmy.world (and other liberal instances) approach would be to close the border to Denmark, because clearly Danish people are evil. They also find it quite nice that those pesky Danes can't come over and make them question their extremely ideologicalized worldview anymore, but of course they won't admit to that reason.

The .ml approach would be to ban the people crossing the border to yell insults while letting the other Danes still cross without issue, because anything else would be ridiculous. They accept that people have opinions, and also lemmy would be quite boring without liberal idealists to poke fun at.

Capiche?

I mean you can tell yourself that and create insane high effort grammar analysis, or you can accept that there's a qualitative difference between selective moderation of content that infringes on rules and defederation from huge instances and all of their content.

One is in fact totally fair and something I expect from my instances moderation, the other is ideologically motivated blanket censorship for the purpose of keeping dissenting opinions from spreading.

You still haven't provided any proof of your accusations, you're mostly just being annoying.

Even if your accusation were true, I'd much rather have content blocks handled on a user/post basis rather than defederating from huge instances because they supposedly contain wrongthink, like most liberal instances do.

The topic that was being discussed was your claim that lemmy.ml suppresses any dissenting opinion. You have yet to provide evidence for this claim, instead you typed up a bunch of paragraphs comparing me to two different species of animal trying to tie it all together into some kind of gotcha?

Small businesses are often worse, since there's less oversight, more willingness to gamble on 'risks', a need for higher margins to stay afloat and generally fewer different interests at stake. The issue is private ownership in itself, not how that private ownership is structured.
