Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

I'd like less nazis. Including the dog whistling kind.

You should say "fewer Nazis." Ha! Didn't think you'd meet a grammar Nazi so soon did you?

You should actually say "No Nazis at all"

Since Nazis took over a Bluey Memes (children's cartoon) Facebook page, I realized the only way to be rid of them is to have a zero tolerance for Nazis policy. Anything community purports "free speech" should be considered an immediate dog whistle for fascist creep.

The original idea of so called "reddiquette" where people don't down vote because they disagree, they vote based on whether it contributes to the discussion or not. But obviously that's not easy to enforce in any way

Zero tolerance for fascists, and zero tolerance for state propagandists.

The fact that Lemmy is federated means you don't need to be tolerant of anyone and if they want to keep spewing bigotry and lies. If you make it impossible for them to exist in an instance they'll have to either give up or spool up their own instance that we can isolate.

Because running an instance requires some organization, maintenance, and money, anything that becomes too isolated from the rest of the fediverse will eventually die out.
