Lemmy.ml is ABSOLUTELY authoritarian. Just look at their modlog. They have a vague “rule 1” rule rhst basically means the admins discretion. The mods are flaccid and uselesss while the admins do all the moderation, and on room of that, they even ban people for posting shit in non .ml instances!
.ml is completely voluntary and I can see everything going on in it. Being dicks isn’t the same thing as being authoritarian. I don’t have a problem with pre-emptive banning as a concept, so we’ll disagree there because trans coms ban people who’ve never posted to them, too.
I don’t know what the “mods are useless” thing is about. Looks like they manage their communities normally?
On top of that, .ml is one of the biggest instances, so “they” is a lot of different people. Kinda like how people say .world is full of trolls, or sh.itjust.works is a nazi bar, or .today is right wing.

Quit with the apologia.
