You probably should find another instance if you can. They're not the greatest.

Well, they were the only one that seemed to be actually accepting new users during reddit's major exodus event a few years back.

I was with them at first too.

Some poor judgement from admins, essentially, combined with... ambiguous policies.

It's not something like "Holocaust denial", but a big kerfluffle with them refusing to remove a particularly bad mod, and especially pussyfooting around the issue for the longest time, giving contradictory or vague answers as to what they were doing, has damaged faith in the admins pretty severely, and it'll take time for them to win it back - assuming they do so.

They curate the front page and have rogue admin that do what they want.

And don't seem to care if mods break their own instance rules

And here I was really excited to come to the comments and look for the "nothing of value was lost" post
