They delete comments in critical of the CCP. A couple days ago I corrected someone from there who was lying about something to make the US look bad. A comment said “per the CDC the rate in the US is X” and they misquoted and said it’s ten times as high.
So I said “no it’s x, look at the comment again.” They deleted my comment and left the lie. They also deleted my follow up asking why it was deleted, as well as a bunch of other comments in the thread.
There’s heavy censorship on lemmy.ml in favor of the CCP, I’d be surprised if they’re not running it directly.
Ya, and I prefer the open stance but just don’t want to deal with the volume of propaganda. I’m taking the advice to be more aggressive with my filtering.
Same. Authoritarian propaganda from the CCP and Kremlin nonstop.
lemm.ee has a fairly open federation policy, no? That’s probably a factor. I don’t see nearly that much.
Seems many instances still federate with lemmy.ml which is a major part of the problem.
I haven’t had much issue with lemmy.ml tbh but I’m sure if I went looking I’d find something.

Damn, what was their rationale in the modlog?
I didn’t know I could check
Bottom of the webui is a modlog, all actions are public.
Thank you, I’ll check it out and might post it here
