I did some analysis of the modlog and found this:

Ok, bigger instances ban more often. Not surprising, because they have more communities and more users and more trouble. But hang on, dbzer0 isn't a very big instance. What happens if we do a ratio of bans vs number of users?

Ok, so lemmy.ml, dbzer0 and pawb are issue an outsized amount of bans for the number of users they have... But surely the number of communities the instance hosts is going to mean they have to ban more? Bans are used to moderate communities, not just to shield their user-base from the outside. Let's look at the number of bans per community hosted:

Seems like dbzer0 really loves to ban. Even more than the marxists and the furries! What is it about dbzer0 that makes them such prolific banners?

Raw-ish numbers and calculations are in this spreadsheet if anyone wants to make their own charts.

Holy shit seriously? Now you're trying to bring philosophical rhetoric into a practical discussion? Go to fucking college kid. Jesus Christ you desperately need to learn how to learn. And yes, we know pretty well that consciousness is an emergent property of the sum total of our biological processes. It also may be entirely made up as a way our brains filter and process all the input of receives but that's neither here nor there because I can't wait to hear what's next on your dip shit docket of misunderstanding.

    You're the one who claimed you know how the brain creates experiences and you're absolutely certain we can't replicate that process with computers. You seemed so sure, five minutes ago.

    It's like hearing a kid say "I have absolutely no idea how a nuclear reactor functions, but I'm completely certain it has nothing to do with steam engines"

    And fuckin hell there you go arguing with yourself again. Nobody said anything about being able to eventually replicate it with computers, it's unlikely but maybe quantum computing could handle it, but regardless any existing tech in the AI space absolutely fucking without any shade of doubt is not remotely close to that. Like fucking at all. And steam turbines don't have shit to do with the reactor itself, they're for generating power from the reactor, that's a stupid attempt at a gotcha and you just keep proving I'm dealing with someone with only primary education at best.

    No, that's what you read because your reading comprehension matches your understanding of the other subjects we've discussed. Go to fucking school, Jesus Christ. Get a legitimate education instead of just making shit up in your head and assuming that's correct.

    You're really bad at arguing, you just say "nuh uh" and berate Me for not agreeing with you. It's like talking to a man from the 1950s.
