This suddenly does not work
edit:
It looks like the problem is on lemmy.ml, not lemmy.world
Does not work either.

Seems like lemmy.ml is really collapsing in on itself. Overall not good for the general health of the fediverse. We need large “sibling” instances rather than monoliths like .world, which is to say nothing of the politics of the instance. The fewer “medium” to "large’ instances are, the more reliant the whole system becomes on “very large” monoliths like .world, which overall weakens the integrity of the network.
This also highlights the destructiveness of toxic moderation. There is plenty of it here too, but there needs to be some kind of accountability/ redress if open & free communities are going to be a long term project. Not really a big deal in the long run and something we’ll just have to keep working on.
The community was removed from lemmy.ml by their admins. Here’s the reason in the modlog:
Unmoderated duplicate of /c/usa . Any world-related can use /c/worldnews
Lemmy & the fediverse needs to be more modular.
We need… something like a “transfer, merge, fork, split” for communities.
For example, if these guys are just going to nuke that content, another instance should have the opportunity to either fork it, or merge it with another community. Its mostly the same stuff as would have been in c/Politics here.
And what it does now, is it puts even more editorial power in the hands of fewer people (ones that ml probably) don’t vibe with.
Classic boneheaded decision.
