There’s a lot of purity politicking and porridge-only level censorship on lemmy. Db0 tends to allow adults and hyperbole. So you have this combination of wildly overstepping mods / upper tier users used to throwing their weight around “ummmaaa you said a naughty word!!” coming face to face with an entire instance of people they can’t control and who don’t really care either, with a comm that documents mod abuse and said mods lose their everloving shit at the loss of control.
