    KIA as in the car brand? What the hell are they even doing on .ml?

    It’s a shame so many default to .ml without any knowledge of who owns and runs the instance…

      It’s because not enough bigger instances have thrown in the towel and defederated lemmy.ml. Many people are able to ignore this issue when it hasn’t happened to them which is why they still choose to create communities there. Defederation though is harder to ignore since it kills your chances of starting a community there.

    I mean that’s one of the more unsuprising bans ngl.

    I could find way more dodgy bans if I just spend five minutes scrolling the general modlog. ML bans are so frequent and tend to be so dodgy, that the ban you got there is like the least unsuprising thing of my day.

      Unsurprising, but a blatant example of them not allowing criticism. I mean, people expect it from them, but it is something to link to when one claims they don’t do this.

    What a pathetic “achievement” to “unlock” yet again. It’s boring and hack and old. Get some new material.

      Lmao, technically my achievement has been relocked since davel reverted my existing 1 year site ban just 2 months in for brigading purposes and just manually banned me from 29 30 comms out of 3655+ .ml comms

      And even this isn’t a site ban, just a plain ol comm ban, but since davel issued the Kia comm ban, I accomplished what I wanted

      Anyways, if you want to see actual documentation of the Tankie behavior of .ml to scratch that “new material” itch, be sure to check out the other posts around here!
