We should leave the federated on most instances as a honeypot for them. This way they don’t join other instances.
It’s like when you give a kid a video game controller without batteries.
I’m out of the loop, what’s going on?

Here is a nice community that keeps track of their bullshit
Can’t? I already personally blocked them months ago.
Join me
Unfortunately it doesn’t get rid of all their comments, like one’s instance defederating would.
yeah.
I’m waiting until there is a deferated instance from lemmy.ml with downvotes disabled, until then, this is the best I can do.
If you don’t mind downvotes enabled, try lemmy,cafe :)
My current instance doesn’t have downvotes, but it doesn’t matter to me either way.
Posting this to lemmy.world, lol
Why would you want to create an echo chamber? I genuinely don’t get it, it’s the internet, if you encounter an opinion you disagree with, literally just close the tab and it’s gone
Regardless of the criticism specifics, a visible mod/admin is a bad mod/admin. True leadership follows; the steering, imperceptible. The job is that of a janitor. People can appreciate a janitor. When a janitor tries to play president, hate follows.
I haven’t seen the specifics in this instance. I saw someone posting partial private messages in screen shots months ago without full context and making drama. I have not seen inexcusable behavior from .ml or a reason I feel motivated to stop posting there.
inexcusable behavior from .ml
Go post the most reasonable fact-based take that’s still anti-china or anti-russia you can over there and it’ll be clear real quick

I post criticisms of Russia and China quite frequently, the critical part of “critical support” doesn’t mean critical like “it’s a critical attack!”.
With Russia though, literally the only context where the guys who destroyed the USSR and caused the greatest non-war-related drop in human life expectancy, increase in suicide, increase in child mortality, increase in alcoholism, etc in the 20th century are a better alternative is in the context of opposing western hegemony.
Like you’re not going to see a ml say anything nice about Russia, only that it’s less evil than the west.

That’s just the more prominent example, what others would you like?
How about the .ml admin who told a user to kill themselves and is still an admin? Or how about the general toxicity of their users towards Lemmy newcomers? Or the BlueMaGA crap? Or how about likening Harris to fascism when there was a literal textbook fascist, Trump, on the ticket
Do you have the source for the first one?
Lemmy.ml ist BSW als Instanz. Faschisten die die Farbe Rot mögen.
Ja. Ich brauche aber gute Begründungen für eine potenzielle deföderation. Wenn es stimmt, was der Nutzer gesagt hat, wäre es ein Gutes.
The irony of a community promoting socialism while also instabanning anyone for the slightest wiff of criticism is just chef’s kiss peak representation of why their system is doomed.
If you can’t withstand the slightest nudge of criticism how are you even going to attempt to provide a governance system based on any kind of economic directive? If Marx could see what you guys have become he’d personally wipe his ass with your lame ml instance
Free speechers on .world can’t handle interacting with any dissenting opinions to the left of the Bush Administration.
- posted on *.world
How I interact with lemmy.ml:
- If I see a post I want to comment on, I comment on it. I don’t give a fuck what instance it’s on.
- If I want to post, I select the relevant community with the most subscribers. I don’t give a fuck what instance it’s on.
- If I can’t comment or post there, because I was banned for criticizing a dictatorship, I select the next biggest community.
(This happens about 50% of the time, cause I’m now banned on most .ml communities, simply for posting common sense opinions.)
If anyone wants to go further and actually block the instance, it’s really quite difficult to impossible from base Lemmy but it can be accomplished, as described further in this post.
I don’t think the meme makes sense. The ml users don’t seem to care how much other content is out there. They still participate as much as they’d like.
I like the idea of growing non-ml community, however, I wish larger instances do not block ML. Otherwise, they would just move to lemmy.ee or lemmy.one, just like how they moved from hexbear and grad to ml.
It is great tankies got their own place where they can be happy, and I really don’t want to interact with them. I am emotional about issues they engage in, and emotional me usually is not a nice person.
Social media is one of the few ways I can relax for couple hours per week outside of my job, and I really don’t want my social media experience to go full investigative journalism.
