I pissed off the Tankie Triad LMAO

Though the instances and accounts have been defederated/banned now, votes aren't typically reverted. So my posts from the last day or so will be unexplainably downvoted lol

That's why you gotta learn to feed and hold the controller at the same time lmao

40's? I'm barely in my 30s and talked for weeks about my new cordless mop/vacuum hybrid thing LMAO

Lol, I mean maybe, but at the same time, what kind of protest/boycott/strike grants exceptions? That would make such things powerless and pointless.

And it is publicly posted content, once you post something publicly anywhere you essentially lose control of it (with the exception of if someone is profiting off it, then you have an avenue of control).

Also, FYI, they were in that thread calling the comm a "shit comm" even though I didn't even mod it and the sopuli instance "toxic" (I think anyways, could have been calling the comm toxic, but they never clarified)

Lemmygrad

Lol, how else do you spread awareness for something you're passionate about if not to bring it up "whenever possible" (ofc assuming wherever possible meaning, at least tentatively related). Do you not see them doing the exact same thing with their wall of links? LMAO

Also, I just noticed the other user was banned hours ago for Voting manipulation soooo yea take that as you will lolol ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

What do people said, but since you're new, here's a recap post on what the whole Tankie situation is about (if you didn't encounter them on Reddit lol

It's really quite simple, hamid@vegantheoryclub.org was an up and coming Tankie and was absolutely aligning their instance with the Tankie Triad.

As for why .ml is a "Tankie Instance" in general, and documentation of it, you can see the recap post

That cm lad constantly tries to bring up ".ml" out of nowhere to incite drama, and I just took a glance at their user profile and holy moly it's almost entirely just reposting from lemmy.ml.

Lol

1. I don't do it out of "no where" I generally stick to relevant threads
2. I have plenty of my own posts. In general, I try to aim for a 1:2 ratio, for every crosspost I post 2 articles/content that aren't cross-posts (.ml isn't actually all that busy lmao)
3. lemmy.ml is probably the biggest threat to the long term viability of the Lemmy-verse. It's just so amazing(/S) to come across comments out in the wild on say Reddit that goes along the lines of "I tried that Lemmy place, but it seemed to be just a bunch of tankies/run be Tankies" because they had the misfortune to land on lemmy.ml

stop reposting their work to a certain community and telling them how it's harmful

Yea, harmful to the .ml instance ...which is kinda the whole point of a boycott, to put pressure on the target to either change their ways or fall to irrelevancy

Recap Post

but just handing it over isn't really appropriate.

Well I would hope, if they were open to it, they would have internal discussions with the main mods and maybe some sort of vote amongst their user base and/or giving those who'd rather not time to delete their data before anything changes hands

I'm going to buy a new/used car this decade so I can finally switch to an EV

...but not until my last new car completely dies beyond what my lifetime warranty on it can fix.....ok it might be longer than a decade because it's already going on year 13 lmao

It was their 3rd violation in 3 years, in the UK ig if you rack up 12 points you get it suspended no matter what.

There are some US states that do that as well

Is transferring it to someone else in the cards? I have an LLC intended for my own future instance plans, but I'd be more than happy to take over .ee under it to prevent the loss of another good Lemmy-verse instance

(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)

Lol you shouldn't pick online fights with people who WFH in IT 😂

Hmmm prob a combination of:

• My calls for defederation of .ml
• My calls for boycotting of .ml comms
• My cross-posting of content from .ml comms to non-.ml comms to reduce their influence
• My constant collection of evidence of the .ml admins, mods and Tankie users

Listen, I'm gonna need you to stop coming into my house and taking pictures of me

LMAO ig im really starting to piss off the tankies 😂

Lol I figured, there's also a 1-2 day old account @TheDregg@lemmy.world whose sole purpose in life is to downvote LMAO https://lemvotes.org/user/TheDregg@lemmy.world

Frankly, there's no other explanation why blocking doesn't work properly after 4 years (User blocking was rolled out in 0.12 in 2021), but yet a bug that did actual direct harm to .ml had a hot fix deployed in a matter of days
