Lemmy.world defederated EH a while back and now the same people from EH are posting wild on rammy.site, seems like a pretty cut and dry argument for defederation to me, if the admin were here and cleaning these posts and communities up that would be different but he's not and they're still here so best to treat is the same as EH because for all intents and purposes it is the same as EH.
Defederation is not censorship. It is refusing to listen to or platform things that you don't agree with i.e. bigots or nazis. Lemmy.world has defederated exploding heads so it stands to reason that they wouldn't want to listen to the same assholes spewing the same crap on rammy.site
I'm on the Desktop site.
Rammy.site has been overrun by bigots from exploding-heads they are posting transphobic content accusing LGBT people of being groomers and also posting climate denial. They're likely posting here because it is a small instance with an Admin who is currently MIA and/or not moderating the instance. For this reason it is imperative that it be defederated to stop these bigots from using it to spread their hate to other instances.
Recently it has come to my attention that the instance where my account is located rammy.site has been taken over by right wing bigots from the site exploding-heads they have created many hateful communities and have started posting transphobic content and climate denial. There's also quite a bit of community spam on here.
I very strongly advocate that the admins of this instance defederate from rammy.site as soon as humanly possible to stop the spread of their toxic shit to other instances.
Still seems like it's federated to me, I got your reply notification.
They'll just create more communities, have you seen the community spam on here lately? If they did that fighting against each other do you really think they wouldn't evade community bans on lemmy.world? Defederation is the only way unless the admin comes back and does a sweeping IP ban of everyone posting shit on here, followed by defederating exploding-heads. I don't foresee that happening though, admin has been MIA for over a month with no sign of returning and there's almost no activity here besides me and the assholes from EH.
More like they're deliberately and intentionally trying to cause harm to people, they literally have a community dedicated to transphobia calling transgender people groomers.
It's one thing to disagree with someone, it's another to make disgusting accusations based on a person's orientation/identity. They're literally trying to say that all LGBT people are pedophiles because they disagree. How do you think that is okay?
I heard world goes down a lot though. How is .ca's uptime? Does it have outages as frequent as world?
Yeah I hope he can salvage the instance whenever he gets back, if he ever gets back. He'll probably have to wipe it clean and get a new domain honestly. This is why if setting up a Lemmy instance it's important that you always get a team of people to work together as admins, that way there's always someone there to take care of the problem and you don't end up in situations like this.
Tell me about it, I just logged on the other day expecting to go post in !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone and I'm greeted with transphobic and climate denial posts on the front page. Really didn't know what the hell was going on.
It's not his instance though, he's not an admin he can't do anything about it.
You'll no longer be able to retrieve content from the de-federated instance and they'll no longer be able to communicate with yours.
Yeah, why do stupid Nazis always have to ruin everything anyway?
Yep they trash smaller instances until larger ones defederate them and all the users on them. I'm thankful I don't have many posts or comments on my account but it absolutely sucks that I'm going to need to find another probably less reliable server.
Any suggestions for good servers to use as my new home server? I can't really host one because I have potato internet in a mobile unit (don't believe what they say, Starlink is absolutely awful) and I also don't really want to buy a static IP. Just want a small instance with good uptime like rammy did but better moderation.
Glad I could help
Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.
It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don't believe me check the instance for yourself, you'll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities.
Dear Admins of the Lemmy.world instance I am asking that you please consider defederating from the rammy.site instance as soon as possible as the admin is no where to be found and it has been taken over by right wing posters posting hateful messages. There are also other people posting large amounts of spam and creating empty communities. What was once a small hobby run general purpose instance has been turned over and made into a festering right wing hate filled breeding ground by the people from exploding-heads. The only recoarse left it seems is to defederate to prevent them from spreading hate to other instances.
PS. I already sent this message to multiple admins here, sorry about that I just felt it was urgent to make sure the message was sent before these people cause more damage.
My account is actually on Rammy.site, though after what has happened I'm definately going to be moving on, I heard lemm.ee is pretty good.
It's a shame it had to come to this, I liked rammy.site very stable and almost never goes out, why do bigots have to ruin everything for us...
You know even though this is my home instance I fully support you defederating from it, I'd rather move to another instance than than have these assholes posting transphobic bullshit be allowed to come and harass the wonderful people here on lemmy.blahaj.zone as they please.
further proof that I am totally cis and should stay away from all things feminine
Why would being cis imply that you should stay away from all things feminine? I mean if you enjoy feminine things then you should do what you like, don't avoid things that bring you joy in attempt to conform to some made up standard.
No you aren't weird, gender identity isn't defined by a person's gender conformity or lack there of. Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable, don't worry about it making you one thing or another.
If you have any doubts about your gender identity you should by all means question. I'm not saying you shouldn't. I'm saying the idea that you should wear what you want without worrying so much about what it makes you. You should identify in a way that feels right for you, that's what gender identity is based on, not whether some piece of cloth is semantically considered feminine or masculine.
It was very nice of your sister to give you her old clothes.
Have you ever tried sleeveless hoodies before, I know some people say they look trashy but maybe they might be for you.
