You have a legit point here. Mystic really shouldn’t be banning people from c/Europe on the basis of anti-genAI sentiment, even if there was evidence of such. I cautioned Mystic against doing that already, but as a mod there’s no easy way to ban from only a subset of your communities without a lot of manual work, so it’s really a side effect of the fact lemmy itself doesn’t expose an easy way to ban selectively. Which is, I agree, unfortunate.
