As is stated in the title, I created and moderated !prolife@lemmy.world. According to the modlog, this community was removed 10 days ago. The modlog doesn't show me who removed the community. I understand the community wouldn't necessarily be everyone's cup of tea, but the actions taken seem improper.
EDIT
After making my case via email to info@lemmy.world, I received the following response:
"We would rather not have a prolife community on our instance. We were getting a lot of reports about it and we have enough on our plate. I'm sure you can find an instance that better suits your needs."
This community was incredibly small (19 subscribers), had less than 10 postings, and had several waves of trollings. Yet, the admins of lemmy.world would rather do away with this community than bother to review if it has broken any rules or is the target of trolling/bullying. I take nothing away from the right to run their instance as they see fit. Perhaps the Code of Conduct should also explicitly state "we reserve the right to do anything we want, regardless of any published rules".
I chose lemmy.world because their listing on join-lemmy.org called it “the worlds internet frontpage”. I thought it would be a good neutral Reddit replacement. If this is not the case, can anyone recommend one that is? What about lemmy.one?
Lemmy.one is run by the guy who runs privacy guides.org. That being said, if you look at the small list of communities he created, I guarantee that he won't allow any conservative views there either. There's one privacy community and 4 or 5 alternative lifestyle communities.
Better off making your own instance at this point. Most of Lemmy is liberal/left wing regardless of what their sidebars say.
I’m a little annoyed by the implication that someone who is liberal or left wing wouldn’t allow conservatives on a discussion forum.
Free speech is a core part of liberalism.
