    says not to ask why

    asks why

    But it's probably because the admins of lemmy.ml are Marxist-Leninists who also run Lemmygrad, an ML instance. They mostly keep their ML stuff to Lemmygrad, but there's been some controversy about banning people with anti-China views from lemmy.ml

    Could be some other reason but that's the main reason people avoid lemmy.ml that I know of.

      Ah gotcha, I avoid Lemmygrad due to the politics of it (I'm a lefty who really doesn't like tankies)

      So that all makes sense to me

      Yeah, I was pretty tired and somehow didn't read the "don't ask why" part.
