I just don’t follow the logic. Let people waunder in to .ml and find out for themselves. Right now it just looks like the libs of .world are trying to censor .ml. What is .world so afraid of? Lemmygrad? That place is hilarious.
Why would I warn my friend? I know their preferences. Why wouldn’t I warn the masses? I don’t know or care about their preferences. Maybe they’d like .ml, who knows, let them find out on their own.

Most people don’t like .ml, look at the vote ratio on the post.
So, for most new people, we expect they also won’t enjoy it. No one is stopping them, same way you aren’t stopping your friend, just warning them. If they want to go play there or it appeals, nothing stops them.
But, warning people does help cut down on the “ugh, is this the fediverse? I don’t like reddit but at least it’s not that!”
let them find out on their own.
No one is stopping them but it’s polite to give a warning, same as we do for nsfw subs.

A warning isn’t censorship…
But, let’s work through the logic if you really don’t get it.
Why would you warn your friend but not others in the MAGA convention example? (Maybe this is the key.)
It is censorship.
Why would I warn my friend? I know their preferences. Why wouldn’t I warn the masses? I don’t know or care about their preferences. Maybe they’d like .ml, who knows, let them find out on their own.
