Apparently I'm banned from Lemmy.ml, I guess I'm here now
Right of passage I suppose

I recently made the decision to unsubscribe from the vast majority of ML communities I was in. They've been getting a lot more obnoxious as of late, both in terms of the normal users as well as the mods getting more heavy-handed.
Honestly, I recommend everybody consider it for themselves, as well. If you have communities hosted on ML, it might be a good idea to start migrating elsewhere, because I see them quickly becoming defederated from a lot of instances soon with the way they're progressing.

Same. I’m “boycotting” lemmy.ml if you will. Not contributing a single, comment, upvote, or subsciber count, to posts and communities on an instance that supports Russian and Chinese imperialism.

That's right on schedule. There is a toxic mob that struggles to exist together (because they alienate themselves every time in a matter of weeks). They started on Reddit, originally collecting in chapostraphouse and got their community banned and each subsequent iteration has seen the same fate.
Then the fediverse was born and they began to self host. Now they couldn't be banned. There was lemmygrad, then hexbear and .ml. Checkmate, right?
When more serious and honest hosts saw the pattern many enabled instance-blocking so we could eliminate the source as end users.
Most genuine folks I interact with have blocked lemmygrad and hexbear. The toxic cloud of chuds knows this and have been moving into .ml sublemmy and dispersing into smaller and smaller communities to evade being blocked by users.
It's all quite interesting and funny if I'm being honest.
I wish I had a sociology degree, I'd publish so many fkn papers.

I don't want to moderate a bunch of new communities though

It’s rite of passage, not right! Rite is cognate with ritual, both related to the practice of religious ceremonies.

You are rite

Welcome back to the real world

I blocked ML instance pretty quickly on my account. Heavy handed but probably for the best
-
Honestly I prefer hexbear of lemmyml. I can't say I agree with the people on hexbear but they do seem to be decently civil as of late.
-
Too many people blocked hexbear so they made alt troll accts on .ml to continue being complete dickheads to everyone who doesn't want them around, since their existence is entirely centered around evangelical style proselytizing of their views, mainly to feed their persecution complex, and that requires an unwilling audience. They still have their Hexbear accts I'm sure, but they'll be maining the troll accts because they need their supply.

And yet, nothing of value was lost.

Why would you say that when anyone can check the modlog and see it isn’t the case? You were banned from one community for one month.
ETA: Oh, sorry: two communities for one month, which happened two weeks apart.
-
Which one were they banned from?
-
hilariously they took a temp ban from /c/Linux, but just scrolling a little further they also just got a perm ban from NCD for " you don't fit in here" because they mentioned the historical (and ongoing) American mistreatment of their indigenous population in a different thread
I guess just being russiophobic isn't enough to fit in with those types

Don't worry OP I self banned from there.

You are fre, now join us in calling Dessalines an edgy cringe lord!

lmao

What did you do, have an unapproved opinion? Did you refuse to bow down to the DEI masters? Are you not willing to treatfediverse people as delicate children? Did you prove someone's statement is false with references and verified documents?
-
I supported the banning of Russians on the Linux kernel. I also pointed out that Russia's invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked and unjustified.
Somehow I don't think they liked my opinion. I've had my fill of Lemmy.ml and I'm trying to move off of it completely. It appears I'm not totally banned from Lemmy.ml but that probably will change in a heartbeat.
-
Ah yeah I engaged in that discussion as well. Only got a comment deleted though. lemmy.ml gets wilder and wilder, they are openly tolerating support for Russias invasion of Ukraine at this point.
It's a good thing to get banned there I guess.
-
Yep got a ban from that thread too
-
I got a similar ban from that community after the moderator started spouting conspiracy theories at me and I didn't agree with them. I noticed they removed most of my comments in that thread, but not all of them... Not sure if it was accidental, but the ones with non-negative karma were the ones that got removed.
This is also how I discovered a moderator that bans you from their community effectively prevents you from deleting any of your posts in it, which makes me feel... Uncertain about the ML mods having such control over the stuff its users post.
-
By all means, support it. It will be good for the Russian government, as well as motivate awareness of geopolitical concerns among programmers. 🤠 Just like the sanctions, you NATOids are too arrogant to notice you're helping the Kremlin and pushing them to the east.
-
As I said, banned for unapproved opinion.
I do not support Ukraine because of being the most corrupt country, at the very least in Europe. I've also heard various people say they need to defend to protect the global banking system. Watch videos of citizens in Ukraine, nobody is getting a part of the $150 billion, it's goijg into people bank accounrs.
If possible, I want Russia to lose and Ukraine to lose. It is a tyrannical gangster at war with mass corruption. Evil vs evil.
