Hello World!

We've made some changes today, and we'd like to announce that our Code of Conduct is no longer in effect. We now have a new Terms of Service, in effect starting from today(October 19, 2023).

The "LAST REVISION DATE:" on the page also signifies when the page was last edited, and it is updated automatically. Details of specific edits may be viewed by following the "Page History" reference at the bottom of the page. All significant edits will also be announced to our users.

The new Terms of Service can be found at https://legal.lemmy.world/

In this post our community mods and users may express their questions, concerns, requests and issues regarding the Terms of Service, and content moderation in Lemmy.World. We hope to discuss and inform constructively and in good faith.

But they aren't. You're free to go to an instance that hosts those images.

Conversely if lemmy.world hosted gore, you'd be free to go to an instance that bans it. What a non statement.

I'm complaining about the policy. Saying I'm not allowed to complain about the policy, because that's not what the policy says, is dumb.

Let me make it clearer: I don't like this section of the terms and I'd like to hear their reasoning for why they made that policy decision.

Your reason for liking the gore ban makes no sense so I'm dismissing that as a possible reason for the admins' decision.
