The elephant in the room is that they're mostly bots or bad actors. They're written almost exactly the same and in the same format. When you call them on it, you are downvoted almost instantly and buried. We usually don't qualify to get the really good ones in here, but that's a good thing imo.

    Welcome to a tutorial on how to block .ml on your personal account.

    In the top right corner of the top of the page, there are 3 horizontal white bars. Click it.

    This will open up a drop down menu. At the bottom of that menu, you will see your username. Click it.

    This will open another drop down menu with 3 options. Click “Settings”.

    At the top of your screen you will see 2 tabs. Click the one that says “Blocks”.

    Here you will see “Block user” “Block community” and “Block instance”. Click the down arrow below “Block instance”.

    This will open up a search bar. Type “lemmy.ml” and click it after it shows up. That’s it! You’ve blocked .ml and will never see content from the instance.

    But wait, we aren’t done yet in this menu. Click the down arrow under “Block user”. Now type “UltraGiGaGigantic” Make sure you select my .ml account as the other ones I no longer use. Thanks, appreciate it.

    Someone having a different ideology other than your own isn’t being a “bot” or a “bad actor.” Saying that just shows you don’t know anything about US politics.

    Interesting a .ml user who defends China multiple times in the first few comments in their history says this. Pikachu face!
