Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Names blurred to protect the innocent / crazy. Not trying to call anyone out, just thought the response was hilarious and highly disproportionate. Like, they distinguished that comment (green border/background).

For reference, the comment I presume that was downvoted that apparently triggered that response was to the tune of "BoTH SiDEz!!!!" with some hyper generalizing / stereotyping on the side.

If they don't like it they should defederate. Make it into a proper hugbox

Stop asking for defederations people.

That function is for wildly inappropriate or illegal content, not a random community you are not the target group of. Block communities you dont care for yourself, or even the whole instance. That way you can still interact with their users / read posts and comments outside the instance.

The fediverse should not be fractured needlessly.

I'm saying if the instance doesn't want outsiders coming in then that instance should remove itself from others

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You haven’t seen how those outsiders act

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I mean clearly they are unhappy with how they act so defederating just makes sense to me

[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah in my experience vegans are pretty happy in their spaces it’s usually the meat eaters who try to dampen the mood like how they were doing on that post

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's... what I've been saying lol. That the vegans aren't happy how the outsiders are acting in their instance. So to stop outsides from coming there they could defederate.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nah, Lemmy doesn’t need to be fragmented more because some people are too close-minded against veganism which has existed since 1944.

The outsiders will still somehow find themselves there and then complain that we vegans are mean. I have seen it countless times in other vegan spaces.

Would have a lot less of them if it was defederated

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Seems like victim blaming.

"Oh, you guys get harassed? Just cut yourselves out of the rest of the instances, completely killing your community in the process"

If bigots were to systematically downvote content on LGBT instances, would you also suggest those instances to defederate?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 months ago

It'd probably make the places nicer for the people their so could be a good idea

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Looks like someone is scared of veganism.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 months ago

I don't get what you mean
