Lemmy.world getting increasingly like Beehaw on steroids. Ironically, for their anti-authoritarian editorial policies, they're increasingly stomping down what is and isn't acceptable. Most people who like to be treated like adults fortunately have lemm.ee or Lemmy.ml

Tell me you didn't read the TOS without telling me you didn't read the TOS.
Whats your complaint? You can't:
Can you specify which of the above you take issue with? If I missed something in the TOS that you're taking issue with, I'm curious what it is.
Otherwise I think you're lost and looking for a different thread.
My response was here: https://lemm.ee/comment/5092425
I'll save retyping.
You know you can search for your username and see all your accounts right? Your Lemmy.World one is far from the most active.
Yes most people want to be treated like adults and there is nothing in the ToS that prevents them from doing so. Which of the terms do you have a problem with?
Firstly, I have more than one account for different purposes. These were created when performance problems were rampant, and my view was always to return, and then the Hexbear defederation happened before even federation occurred based on speculation. It was much quicker than Exploding Heads defederation was. Based on that decision and the way it was worded in the announcement, which failed to be impartial, detached, or hiding in personal intent, I was hesitant to return fully. See the lemm.ee announcement taken for contrast which was done by someone with more than enough reason to defederate, but they approached it in a balanced and mature manner. In line with that, this can become quite sinister:
"Always post compliant content that upholds the rules of the individual community and the website, and is of personal interest to you."
"uphold the rules of the website" and ensure posts are "compliant". It very much comes across as though world is a political site, and has taken a clear editorial line. Anyone from the left isn't welcome... and steps will be taken if it makes anyone feel any cognitive dissonance. lemmy.ml, lemm.ee and shit.just.works are far superior general purpose instances.
Interestingly enough, you have the following:
"Vote for the content, not for the person."
and yet you decided to search me, and go for the ad hominem. Playing the person and not the point. I'm getting the anyone that disagrees is a problem vibe here.
