Yesterday, lemmy.blahaj.zone announced their defederation from lemmynsfw.com and argued that lemmynsfw don’t care enough about CSAM.

Although I think lemmynsfw is right about this, that’s not the point. I believe lemmy.blahaj.zone is an instance caught in the positivity echo chamber (to put it more roughly, circle jerk).

You can never interact negatively with their decisions or thoughts. Downvotes disabled. Admin literally removing any opposing view while keeping positive ones.

Check this comment: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/1336587

Admin removed the comment while keeping reply of it and commenting with Exactly this. Dear friend, we don’t know the main comment so how can we agree any of them?

IDK. I think it is very annoying for an instance built on diversity to have such reactions. Is it just me thinking like that? Am I the stupid one here?

Note: Posting this here so admins won’t be able to remove.

Edit: I guess I should add this. IDC should they defederate or not. I just don’t liked their behaviour.

    downvotes do actually suck tho

    with downvotes, everything that is not agreeable by the majority goes below threshold and is hidden. Without downvotes, the more liked something is, the higher it ranks, simple as. If a comment or post is disliked, its replies correcting it will be ranked higher than the original content itself, which is a great way for content to be ranked.

    Blahaj zone still sucks for other reasons tho.
