Not a fan of it by any means, but it shit down ~11 days ago and no one mentioned it.

Every link to something on the instance redirects to this: https://imgur.com/XpxDJTg

Since lemmy posts are links, every image post is now that image.

The admin (local account on lemm.ee https://lemm.ee/u/[email protected] ) said it was because of the harassment culture on lemmy (https://lemm.ee/post/64686772 ), and blamed sunshine and beaver for doing something? (https://lemm.ee/post/63664605/20610349 – the post this is in reply to is gone, but the comment is in the local copy of the person’s profile.)

Anyone know what happened?

I mean it’s a pretty influential instance since that’s where the lead developers reside. It would be pretty normal for everyone using lemmy to have them “live rent free in their heads”

“live rent free in their heads” doesn’t mean to be aware of someone, it’s talking about obsession. 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.

Like just look at https://lemmy.world/post/30613970/17403019, a content creator is asking them to stop reposting their work to a certain community and telling them how it’s harmful, and cm0002 is just using that as an excuse to handwave it and soapbox. This is unhealthy antisocial behaviour.

Lol

  1. I don’t do it out of “no where” I generally stick to relevant threads

  2. 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)

  3. 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

Please, do explain how the fluff lemmy.ml was relevant to this thread? All I can come up with is “I dislike this instance” and “they are leftists” (or so-called leftists).

It’s really quite simple, [email protected] 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

I’m not stupid, I know that .m(arxist)l(eninist) is a tankie instance. But what the other user stated, that you’ve made it your entire personality to bring it up whenever possible, also rings true ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

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⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I dunno bestie, I have a +36 in Voyager for you, I clearly upvote your stuff often, but the way you acted in that thread was mean-spirited.

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)

Rules

  1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
  2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
  3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.


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
