Not sure how to report entire communities, but https://lemm.ee/c/vaccines just opened up and it’s a troll forum for vaccine misinformation.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !vaccines@lemm.ee
For real. I just had the misfortune of looking at that cesspit for about 45 seconds and I feel like I need a shower.
There is nothing if value there whatsoever.
That community was horrific and I’m really glad it was dealt with, but this raises some big-picture moderation questions that will need to be answered moving forward. For example: What is the difference between sharing an extreme opinion v.s. sharing misinformation/disinformation on lemm.ee? Unless admins make an executive decision in the meantime, I think it would be useful to have a productive discussion on criteria for content like this because there will hands down be more situations like this down the road.
It’s up, I can see the content (mostly it’s just complaining about Joe Biden who is clearly a master conspiratist).
Yikes
Report it, I don’t know about lemm.ee admins but the lemmy.world admins have been good about removing rule breaking stuff amd stuff from bigots amd the kinds of people you mention in your post so I hope the lemm.ee admins are the same
So report it and please include relevant information in the report, don’t just send an empty report because I’ve seen admins asking people not to send empty reports
Its gone now, but I couldn’t find a report button for that community only a block button
Report the posts of any commu ity that violated rules and explain in the report that the entire community breaks the rules
