Why not just stay away from lemmy.ml then? You can start the same communities on another instance. It would be like me going to a Nazi instance and pointing out that they ban anyone that celebrates diversity. Like, yeah... that's what they do. It's in their ethos.

I didn’t realize some of the communities were on .ml

You technically can. The issue is that when the average Joe sees five instances of the community they're looking for, and the highest users/month stat is on .ml, they'll post there for the most traction. And the problem just self-reinforces from there.

The mods are ensuring people stay away from .ml

Have you earned your ban of honor yet?

Just one so far.
