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)_/¯
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
I don’t do it out of “no where” I generally stick to relevant threads
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)
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
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
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
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
It’s typically assigned, which if you compare to other .ml’ers like BrainInABox they are rather respectful. But as we can see, it’s only on the surface lol
I’d rather have a comm with poor moderators over ones moderating in a way to push a specific agenda.
But there’s also !world@quokk.au and !globalnews@lemmy.zip comms that could use support
Lol what’s even worse is they have a large Ukraine comm AND a large United States comm lololol
.ml admins and Tankies: “something something THATS JUST WESTERN LIES something NK is actually THE GOOD GUYS something something ITS JUST TO KEEP OUT WESTERN PROPAGANDAAAAA”
Nah, I’ll take a day off when lemmy.ml either gets shutdown, defederated from or an actual fair and unbiased admin team is put in place.
I didn’t even notice, lol good riddance they were on their way to making the Tankie Triad the Tankie Quartet lmao
Now, if only we could get .ml to shutdown
Lol that’s not even scratching the surface. Davel, dessalines and to a lesser extent, another admin, cypherpunks; comprise almost the entire modlog for .ml, with very little activity from actual comm mods
part of ongoing boycotting efforts"
and in any case, I don’t intentionally hide it, I go through a decent amount of effort to both ensure what ever is crossposted shows in the crosspost listing (I HATE that “crossposted from” autogenerated link regardless of whatever about .ml, because there’s already a dedicated system for showing where things are crossposted from) and OC is properly credited, just properly credited to the user themselves.
As far as organically goes, how is coming across a link/article on my own “in the wild” and posted to Lemmy when it wasn’t before, not “organic”? Lol
“Rampant drug use” but apparently no shrooms, can’t be opening his mind to not being a shit stain Nazi after all
You mean why .ml are the way that they are? See this recap post: https://lemmy.world/post/29072279
As far as why they shit on .world? Because it’s the biggest instance that generally won’t tolerate their crap as far as posting of their favored propaganda goes anyways (wish .world would just defed from them already like the rest of the triad)
Lol, like 40% (estimate pulled out of my ass) are xposts from .ml comms as part of ongoing boycotting efforts (recap)
Another 40 was the result of a massive increase in posting to organically counter “.ml heavy hitter comms”, basically found a home for every decent article I came across/read with a focus for comms like !linux_gaming@lemmy.world or !linux@programming.dev
The remaining 20 are things I would have posted naturally, OC memes etc.
All 9k posts were posted or xposted manually by my 2 hands
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)
