The fediverse is a complicated subject, even amongst those smart enough, or just clever enough, to find lemmy. Many users do think whatever instance they joined is the main one, still others believe .world or .ml as the “main” instance ruling over all others.
It’s weird thinking of a service being this disparate, even if you try to use discord or other similar platform as an analogy, it still fails to acknowledge there is not central server or ruleset (beyond the software license itself).
Bluesky further fucked things up by claiming to be decentralized and federated, and then getting popular.
In short yes, many so think replying here means .world mods will ban their unrelated lemmy account from all of lemmy.
The people talking in this particular thread, and OP, kind of seem like they don’t realize Lemmy isn’t just Lemmy.world.
Like does OP realize that this community is on db0 and isn’t subject to the rules on the .world instance?

Well hopefully some people who thought that see these comments and learn that’s not the case.
That was my first thought too. db0 has way less reddit-like mods than .world.
