I am SO FUCKING ANGRY at the flood of propaganda and forum slider accounts on Lemmy
(self.i_am_angry)
A place for angry people to come and be angry about things without discrimination.
Also, a place for non-angry people to come and read and comment on angry people's posts. Don't be dismissive to ragers because I am notoriously generous with the banhammer.
Note: I say Angry People, not bigoted people. Being angry at people for how they are born will get you blocked with an astounding quickness.
Lastly: NO MEMES! USE YOUR WORDS! (Some exemptions may apply)
I got banned for 30 days from c/[email protected] for calling out a Chinese bot account. Looked over the mods. One active in the last week. Spouts CCP propaganda on a regular basis.
Just block ml, they're actively anti user. They exist solely to push Chinese and Russian talking points. There are plenty of regular users that joined that instance because it's run well from an uptime perspective, but I'm willing to lose them to their own complacency/ignorance.
Is there a way to kind of defederate yourself from certain instances, like the whole of .ml? Or do you just have to play whack-a-mole?
On a web browser, login to your account, and you can defederate yourself from an entire instance. They can see what you post, but all their accounts and posts will never be shown to you.
Yep, Lemmy has a lot of empty space and the bots are racing to fill it.
And the admins don't care, as usual.
I got banned from c/worldnews on lemmy.world for making the tired "how do you know someone uses arch" joke but about tankies. It's kinda wild how bad these early days of community moderation are going.
