Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity 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 [email protected] or [email protected].
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 [email protected]. 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 [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

First of all, I'd advise avoiding talking down to people unless you're damn sure you know what you're talking about. But, since you're comfortable patronising people you know nothing about because they call you on your bullshit, then I'll stoop to your level to get the message across:
If you knew anything at all about engineering, software or otherwise, you'd know the best solution is the one that does exactly what you want for the lowest cost. By your own admission in your post, existing Lemmy instances do not do what you want because you are not in control of the moderation. That is the actual problem because the only solution to your complaint - that you don't like the way the instances are moderated - is to moderate your own instance.
The fediverse is built such that anyone can take the solution someone else built, e.g. the Lemmy or Mastodon source code, and host it themselves, without having to build their own version. This is a feature, and you're just too lazy to use it.
