Guess who wrote Lemmy? https://github.com/dessalines

Are you trying to do Triforce again?

TIL this is an asterism, but I’m moreso enjoying the word dinkus right now.

1. By thread deletion do you mean post deletion or comment deletion or both?
2. By deletion, do you mean user deletion or mod/admin removal or both?

👆 Not everything needs to be appified.

So, how many years until you pay the devs’ salaries?

Mr. Dessalines and Principal Nutomic were in the closet making 19.4 and I used one of the pre-releases and the pre-release gave me Havana Syndrome and made me into a Manchurian Candidate!

Two things can be true at the same time: that Twitter & Nostr have become Nazi bars and that the large US corporate social media platforms (Meta, X, Alphabet, Reddit, etc.) have become constituent parts of the US military-intelligence-industrial complex.

Twitter is merely a Nazi bar when what Jack wanted was a Turbo-Nazi bar.

jwz: Blockchain Rasputin over here is mad that moderation exists

It has been obvious to anyone paying attention that the reason Dorsey founded and funded Bluesky was with the end goal of enabling Twitter to go [Spider-Man Pointing dot GIF] any time an actual Nazi showed up, because moderation was not their problem, they just outsourced it to a series of nested shell companies (that they fund) who act as reputation laundries and liability crumple zones.

Now he pouts and says the quiet part out loud.

Looks like someone’s been squatting on @[email protected] & @[email protected] since last year.

I’m not going to take the time to dispel your presumptions nor explain myself, my motivations, or this Lemmy instance. I’ll just say that I’m not convening a grand jury trial and constitutional convention because one new user (who on first impression is giving Western chauvinism vibes) had one negative interaction with one Global South socialist who has been here over four times longer than me.

Edit to add: Again, please note that this is not an explicitly socialist instance. I won’t elaborate as to why, but it’s no more by accident than the explicitly socialist ones. What is lemmy.ml?

Okay, let me know how this passive-aggressive pressure tactic works out, person who just just got here. I’ve given you my answer.

There is a spectre haunting Lemmy

He’s gotten some temporary bans as well as post/comment removals. Omega_haxor is right about hexbear: it’s explicitly socialist, unlike lemmy.ml, and it’s even more explicitly supportive / aggressively protective of the trans community. Several of the largest instances have defederated from hexbear, so for better or worse, access is more limited.

We aggressively remove transphobic/transmisic posts/comments on lemmy.ml. Please report any that you see. But understand that we don’t control the content of other Lemmy instances, so when you select “All” instead of “Subscribed” or “Local,” it’s the wild west.

😱

I’m almost disappointed that Xinjiang or secret police stations haven’t been trotted out yet.
