Probably the easiest boycott you could do, let's do it Lemmy!
Probably the easiest boycott you could do, let's do it Lemmy!
I for one have stopped posting any content to lemmy.ml communities.
You're viewing a single thread.
Now what's the juicy backstory to this drama?
Lemmy.ml is one of the biggest instances that serves up tankies, there was some conversation going on the .world admin thread regarding the federation issues about why not just defederate/"not fix it" and it was brought up they have a lot of content including one of the biggest Linux communities.
Thus this meme was born lol
ive noticed several communities being moved off of .ml because of overacting mods shitting their own beds (my fav movies comm being one of them). kinda the whole point of the 'verse. i also noticed a recent sync in-congruence from .ml to .world which indicates some kind of funny business... purposeful or not
the locals at .ml seem to have this notion that theyre too big to fail, which is patently not true considering the tiny size of the fediverse overall.
id recommend users utilize a 'home' instance thats more of an onramp than local-content curation... (https://moist.catsweat.com being in this category) they tend to not defederate from any instances so users can easily switch subscriptions when shit goes sideways in the content-heavy servers without making new accounts.

This isn't unique to world or ml. There's some wonky shit going on with federating across Lemmy at the very least, maybe other parts of the fediverse that I don't use. On walledgarden there are at least half a dozen instances that are falling in and out of sync with our communities. No one on either side of the connection seems to have an answer for what caused this behavior or how to correct it. Talking to some other instances, we aren't alone.
The lemmyverse crawler/site has also shown some odd behavior with communities and instances disappearing and reappearing seemingly at random.
I don't think anything malicious is being done by any of the instances or admins in regards to federation delays.
Not believing the US propaganda apparatus is thoughtcrime
Damn, never noticed I couldn't say stuff like "the US is a shitshow" over here. The agents on my door were always so nice as well!
Buggers, guess I'll have to buy some Apple stocks now and pleasure myself over a picture of Abraham Lincoln.
Try praising a US adversary state or mentioning the century of US imperialism and war crimes
NO ONE IS GETTING BANNED FOR CRITISIZING THE US HERE. In fact, it's the norm here. Now, can you tell me how much I can badmouth the ccp on ml???
Dude, there were literal happy posts all over the place when Kissinger passed. There are US-critical memes on Lemmy and the Fedi all the time, in addition to those making fun of Russia, China, communism etc. Most people are aware that the US is shit. However they're also aware that the USSR back then and China right now are also huge piles of garbage, politically speaking (country and people sure are nice!).
Has it ever cross your mind that most people ain't pissed because you're anti-US, but because you're pro-shit?
So cool that you're allowed to criticize the US except you just happen to believe everything it says about everything it actually does so you're never in conflict with it at all ever
Nice bogeyman you got there, really polished. You must have worked hard on it.
Tankie alert mate just ignore the comment, block and please move on
As you can see it's too late: I have depicted you as the soy wojack
You can say whatever you like if nobody cares.
Say something bad about liberalism, NATO, or Ukraine or something good about China or the USSR that threatens the narratives the mods are invested in, and you're liable to have your comment removed for "misinformation", especially if you cite academic works.
Same answer as above: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/25676408/14608182
I can also cite academic papers that apparently prove homeopathy works or, if time doesn't matter, that lobotomy is worth a nobel prize. Doesn't mean they ain't of low quality / biased and pro-shit.
OP is a nazi in the slow process of walling themselves off to everything but the furthest right most racist social circle possible and .ml is the worst now that hexbear and lemmygrad are gone. It won't be enough and the cycle will just continue if they get their way.
If that's your argument then I assume the "nazi" accusation is just bs. Lemmygrad and Hexbear were full of extremists.
Tankie alert please ignore comment or block user and move on
Not sure what if any specific accusations you have in your head that remain unspoken, but the only thing you're doing right now is showing off your terminal war on terror brain. "Extremists" means nothing. You're talking about a community that posts owl pictures.
Did they yell at you too much for supporting a genocide? Did someone in your past refer to someone trying to purge leftists a 'nazi' and you took it personally?
You're the extremist. You're upset because you're a bad person talking about good people.
