I'm here from Reddit. They banned me for absolutely no reason. That's frustrating. How works Lemmy ?

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
The .ml folks are (sort of) communist, strictly pro-Putin and pro-China… it’s very weird. They argue in a completely fact-free fashion; sometimes i wonder whether they are parodists or extraterrestrials. I sometimes get into lengthy, absurdist discussions with them, THEN I discover they are from .ml, and THEN I block them. Quite amusing in its own way, but you need to be able to handle them, I like to interact with them early in the morning when I’m enjoying my first coffee.
I've been on Lemmy since the API blackout 3+ years ago and have never seen this. I wonder if my instance blocks them?
I'm from .ml and I can assure you I am perfectly sane
Why did you stay on ml if you're sane?
I signed up when it was the main instance, and could never be bothered to migrate since. Plus, not seeing curse words is actually quite nice (.ml censors them)
Why isn't he like the fanatics wanting to block opinions they don't like? How weird
yes, can't have other opinions, they will decide for you
A lot of instances do. They're usually blocklisted due to trolling or exclusionary/supremacist posting.
OK.
