And it seems karmacourt will be the first to posit that the fediverse is worth “putting in its place”, going by the upvotes in such an empty community that probably discourages those kinds of suits.

    What makes you think the posts cannot be reported? They exist on the lemm.ee instance. Lemm.ee mods and admins can see those posts. When you post to another instance you aren’t actually leaving your native instance. It’s more like trying to forward a letter to someone. In Leni’s case their letters to lemmy.world are never leaving the post office (lemm.ee), but the staff at the post office (lemm.ee) can still see their letters, even though the recipient (lemmy.world) isn’t getting them.

      but the staff at the post office

      Exactly. The whole hometown can see those letters. And very occasionally people from other instances. She has memes in places where she is supposedly banned that have upvotes in the double digits.

      Not an argument I’d make, but there’s also the fact that admins that are willing to make such bans are also often willing to ban other people on a whim. And when the going gets rough, they often go to places that are less willing to ban people for small matters. Saying this because many will use this to say lemm.ee is the inevitable future of Lemmy.
