Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I made two posts on [email protected], neither are visible on both instances lemmy.ml are recommending.

beehaw.org has already become a much bigger instance and they ban lemmygrad, we're already invisible to half the people using lemmy.

It will keep getting worse, at some point you'll need to maintain two separate instance accounts and you'll consider dropping one of them.

It didn't used to be so liberal though right? It seems to me with the flood of people from reddit it flipped overnight into almost the exact same liberal groupthink as reddit had.

why didn't lemmy staff try to control the liberalification of lemmy? to get more people to use lemmy?

My conjecture based on disagreements I've had with them, their goal is to draw in libs so that the marxists actually have people to educate. Without them it kinda became an echo chamber.

lmao how are marxists going to educate them if they're people are gonna block marxist instances and ban (or outright block) marxist users for being "tankies"?

most already go "LALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" if you as much as try to debunk them on lies about the russo-ukrainian war, about china, about dprk anyway; and find marxist solutions to be "too radical".

The ones who block or ban us probably aren't reachable. We can concentrate on constructive discussions with the ones who are interested in evidence.

We have some REAL putin puppets in here, especially on GenZDong.

I mean, actual putin puppets, people who would defend him no matter what he did.

I figure there's only so much that can be done when you have a massive flood of users joining at the same time. Between dev work and administrating lemmy.ml, dessalines and nutomic must be swamped.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

dessalines and nutomic aren't the only admins of lemmy.ml though?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Still I’d assume the sheer amount of new users is too overwhelming

I'm kinda doubtful about them. Agreeable says he's ML, but World News where he is also a mod is notorious for not banning even outright fake NATO propaganda and shills and not just now but even before. Wazowski is inactive and seems to be radlib. K_o_t seems to be some kind of vague green supporting Ukraine, no idea who Maya even is, Arthur Besse idk but posted some ukronazi prop before.
