if the admins saw something messed up, it was gone, with your account probably soon to follow. I never had the chance to take part in forums on the "old internet", but from my understanding it was similar to them, where the moderators knew a troll when they saw one, generally didn't take much shit, and the members mostly were fine with it.

Does the lib finally understand how to build healthy communities?

This, as you can guess, scared off most right-wingers. I saw plenty of people from r/RedditAlternatives go there and come back complaining about censorship or commies.

This probably saved Lemmy.

Ooh, he might have a point 😉

you would maybe see a text post of someone mocking western reporting on the Uyghur genocide

Nah, he still bleeds fascist

Honestly the owner , though definitely right wing, was a pretty chill guy, and he believed in federation and stuff. Kinda unfortunate the instance died

Yup, still a fascist

But yeah, that's how Lemmy's devs, through no fault of their own, probably saved lemmy

God I wish Libs could hear themselves the way we do. The fucking conspiratorial way they sound. "Well the devs accidentally saved lemmy by actually being progressives and caring about a healthy communities.. Dumb tankies..." I don't want to be all stereotypical but OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES LIBS

Edit: Sorry got fired up about this one. I'm calming down as soon as I posted. I still think libs are dumb tho.
