Musk has repeatedly accused people who post the names of his DOGE associates on X of breaking the law (to be clear: doing so absolutely is not a crime). He made a similar claim in response to the screenshots from r/WhitePeopleTwitter posted by Reddit Lies, saying “they have broken the law.” Engadget was unable to verify the Reddit comments posted by the account, but it included statements like “time to hunt” and “this nazi stooge needs to be shot.”
Lemmy isn’t any different in that regard, instance owners are still responsible for moderating their instance.
Not just legally, but for the lemmyverse as a whole.
Look at yesterday’s situation with sdf’s instance, if you let that shit go on for too long, you will be defederated.
?what happened?
There was a nazi setting up and spamming nazi stuff on their instance and it took about a day or so to get the admins of lemmy.sdf.org to deal with the problem at tye source.
Yeah we don’t tolerate transphobia, that’s different to tolerating the removal of scum.
