It's not the community mods abusing their power, it's the admins of .ml. Their rule #1 is 'no bigotry', which sounds nice but gets interpreted in very... creative ways.
Yep, the horror. I absolutely deserved an instance-wide ban for the terrible things I said.
I do love the amount of facts and proof that is been dug up and displayed in this post, many thanks to all those going to the effort!
I've been banned from .ml for being a 'racist' for being anti-Xi, despite the fact that I am Chinese, and pointed out my ethnicity as such in the discussion. I guess antisemitic Jews aren't the only weird accusation getting thrown about nowadays.
The Wandering Inn handles this well, where to hit large milestones you need not just xp but self development.
Nah you're overthinking it. Grab a beginner friendly distro like Mint and just start using it. All this is fanboy talk that can be interesting but doesn't affect 99% of users.
No, you're not misunderstanding anything. The communities were banned by lemmy.world, specifically @MrKaplan@lemmy.world, one of the new admins. At a guess he probably took action on his own without realising the consequences.

That money will likely mean the difference between victory and defeat for Ukraine, and all the geopolitical fallout that entails. It is however unlikely to change Israel's stance on Gaza as long as Netanyahu remains in power.
An aide with the Biden Harris campaign said the individuals were among a group of people that weren’t allowed to attend the event because they had previously disrupted and shut down events with Democratic elected officials.
Seeing as there's been no denial, I'm guessing this is the truth.
