With how .world mods treated them recently and how .world users interacted with that community generally, even .ml and hexbear look better. Not a great look for .world
It isn’t great for anybody. They did what they felt was right and they now have to live with the repercussions. I’m not saying what they did was right or wrong but I will say that emotions play a factor on both sides. Also there is the sense of belonging that comes with being part of a particular community. It leads people to gang up on one another. We end up seeing people take sides based on there experiences instead of facts. Also people tend to lack both sympathy and empathy when online.
As the old saying goes, two wrongs don’t make a right.
I’m less inclined to “both sides” this one. The ganging up included admins. I get they’re humans, but this seemed to me to be a pretty petty thing from people outside the community that got the admins involved in the first place and then the admin applied a double standard as a wave of other .world users continued to dogpile on. Emotions aren’t really an excuse for being a jerk. Most of the other reasons for being a jerk aren’t really great either.
