Come over to PieFed, fairly certain all the major instances have launched parallel PieFed instances. There’s PieFed.world and PieFed.blahaj.zone off the top of my head

Real blocking, faster development, third-party apps like Boost are now adopting support and no toxic political string attached

@ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com unfortunately, Samshits are incredibly locked down, don’t expect root on it anytime soon and to be stuck with most bloatware. Even if root on your model is achieved, it’ll come at the cost of 20% of your battery life. Samshit is so petty, they will lock out 20% of your battery if root is achieved.

It’s Pixel + GrapheneOS, OnePlus or live with the bloat for us in the US

Don’t you dare! You must wait until one is closed then you can open a new one lmao

I could donate directly to him since he doesn’t do as much moderation over there

I’m in the modlog a lot so I can confirm that that is true, however, like @fiddlesticks@lemmy.dbzer0.com mentioned, he shares a transphobic flavor of their mindset sooo yea

but also mentioned that donations for development go towards server costs for .ml. Hell no.

LMAO “Donate directly to me and you won’t have to worry about it! Butttt it’ll still go to the exact thing you’re opposed to.”

Lol MAGAts aren’t doing what the meme says, they’re cheering it on, because ThOSe DaMn DeMoCrAps are finally getting taken care of

It’s not actually all that expensive to host websites, it never has been, sh.itjust.works a larger instance with something like 1.5k posts and comments/day only spends about $150/month

A bid cost saving is not using the “cloud”, cloud services do what they advertise (mainly allow one to “easily” scale up to millions of users), but its costly.

But the beauty of it is that because Lemmy is decentralized, not one person/org has to worry about scaling to millions of users as the Lemmy-verse grows so hosters can skip the cloud

Some pay out of pocket and some take the ways of the forums of ol, donations and small perks for donating. For example, having a db0 account and being a donator gains you voting rights. There’s been talk about private/VIP comms for donators as well

Welcome!

Yea, you’ll see mastodon stuff from time to time, there’s nothing really that tells you it’s a mastodon post, they just look kinda different. For a mastodon post usually the giveaway is hashtags in the post like #hashtag except they’ll be links.

Pixelfed is supposed to show up too, but federation with Lemmy has yet to “kick in” (at least as far as I’ve noticed)

Also on Lemmy you can do ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ without any extra "" actually, here putting the extra 2 backslashes makes you lose your arm

It’s actually really nice, now I can ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ right from my phone keyboard lmfao ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Ok I can support the first 2

But “/s” is absolutely necessary and has predated Reddit by a LONG time. It should be mandatory actually because sarcasm is notoriously hard in text

Please point me to this “harassment”. Am I messaging them directly constantly? Am I following them on GitHub and posting on their comments?

Because documenting what they say and the actions they take is not “harassment”, that sounds like a line straight out of the Drump administration or Muskrat TBH. In fact, I’m pretty sure Muskrat did use that line of narrative with that one person who was documenting his private jet flights.

Like I said, Authoritarians hate when people track what they do and will use all manner of words to discredit it, “harassment”, “fake news” etc.

Just because you’re doing good dev/open source work, does not mean you get a free pass to push and spread toxicity and harmful propaganda. Especially when using power and influence from that work to do it.

“Why are you wasting your time fighting their left-flavored authoritarianism and toxicity‽ Just step aside and let them be to allow well known Russia/NK propaganda outlets to spread and proliferate and that “Russia is actually the good guys” already”

Thanks for the concern, however, I’ll spend my free time how I see fit.

Most of my work is focused on documentation and the occasional meme, I find it funny and interesting that you hate that so much. But as we all know, authoritarians hate it when people expose them.

Apparently, it’s the other way around, i seem to live in davel’s head rent free since they went out of their way to un-siteban me to reissue the ban as individual comm bans instead so they could brigade/dogpile on my posts LMAO

In any event, I’m not just making memes either, I have documented their censorship:

And even what they think of other non-Tankie instances

https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

And that’s not only just a sampling of what I’ve posted, everything I’ve collected on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works the past couple weeks is a mere fraction of what they’ve been doing for years, if I actually did a deep dive into the modlog id probably find MUCH MUCH more

I do this because I consider Tankies to be an ongoing threat to the reputation of the Lemmy-verse and it’s health, I’ve already seen expressions by others elsewhere like Reddit along the lines of “I tried Lemmy, but it seemed to be a bunch of tankies so I left”.

Fuck that, I welcome most Redditors.

Lemmy cannot be made into Reddit, it’s simply not possible because the biggest problems of Reddit was because of Reddit the corporation

Everything else was just born naturally of what happens when millions of humans interact with each other

🙋10 year account for me, thousands of comments. 166k comment karma. It was a wild ride, but when they took Boost it was over for me. Fuck em.

Consequently, now that I’m here I post WAY more, I don’t even think my post count cracked a hundred and here it’s…4…thousand…fuck, I’m here too much 😅

I checked 2 other instance modlog’s, and didn’t see them there.

I did notice “*Permanently Deleted*” for its post title, which is usually indicative of a total post purge (Deletes all content from a post, pictures, comments everything. Normally, an uploaded picture can hang around on an instance directly accessible by its image url), but it’s supposed to be reserved for really bad shit (read: illegal) you don’t want hanging around in an instances DBs

That being said, even permanently deleted/purged stuff generally does show on the modlog, at least an entry that just says Permanently Deleted, so that is a bit concerning.

Id suggest putting together your evidence into a post for !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com maybe you can catch the attention of another instance admin, maybe of db0 themself and they can look into it more (admins of other instances have special visibility into some things)

Edit:

I just realized you participated in an asklemmy post, not made one yourself, I was searching incorrectly lol

Yea there are a number of other things that can happen in that case like blaze said, OP deleted the post, deleted their account, was caught posting really bad shit and their account was wholly purged etc

maybe the modlog isn’t completely visible across instances

The modlog is vulnerable to the same federation issues that all Lemmy content can suffer from.

Because I’ve noticed the same thing with comments removed by .ml admins, I can see the modlog entry when looking on .ml itself, but when viewed from .worlds modlog it’s missing in some cases

But also, like all federated content, you won’t see modlog entries on your Instances modlog if they’ve defederated from an instance. So you won’t see hex/grad modlog entries on .world but you can from .ee for example

Yes, but the backlash would be undoubtedly intense, everyone here loves the modlog (well probably not the trolls/tankies LMFAO)

Excellent! Lol just FYI though for you and anyone else who see, instance blocks should be more thought of as a mute rather than an actual block, .ml users can still see your posts and comments and interact with them (i.e. downvote brigade, talk shit) you just won’t be able to see it

If you want to have a bit of fun and get an instance block that actually works you should try speed running a site ban LMAO

Lol from time to time I think about that early Q TNG episode where Q puts humanity on trial (the first time) and one of his “exhibits” was when “humanity controlled their militaries with drugs”

I laughed it off years ago as a “yea right, like that’ll happen” now…I’m not so sure lolol
