Don’t link to or participate on Lemmy.ml, join the boycott today!
Cross-posted as part of ongoing boycotting/protest efforts to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize and drive non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because of the behavior and attitudes of the .ml instance admins (see megathread link above)
Some highlights from the link:
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, main .ml admin, head dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415
“See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342
“NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!” ~dessalines, main .ml admin, head dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

I did because VOY is my fav lol, season 6 episode 15 where 7 and Tuvok get kidnapped and forced to compete in combat matches to the death (well Tuvok doesn’t because he was critically injured)
Iirc it was his first acting gig before his actual “breakthrough” acting gig

Didn’t they just release that B70 beast? Did it flop‽
Lol no no, they had just posted to both the .ml linux comm and !linux@programming.dev
I crosspost content from .ml as part of boycott/protest efforts:
Why am I cross-posting .ml content?
I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some active niche comms.
Some highlights from the link:
.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

General negative sentiment to other instances who haven’t “seen the way” yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510
And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.
I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda
On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like “Lemmy? Isn’t that the place with a bunch of tankies?” Or “Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left”. The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.
!linux@programming.dev is the primary one I contribute too as well as primary for my .ml crossposting
But, where possible, I have identified secondary comms to crosspost to. The sh.itjust.works one is the next largest off-world off-ml linux comm that isn’t programming.dev
I don’t really check for active mods, if it becomes an issue for a comm I usually just request to be made a mod at some point
I’ve never been able to quote and get spoiler to work fully, I think the 2 are just incompatible with each other, best I get is this partial working one where closed it’s quoted and when you open it it goes outside the quote
Yes, but you also sent it to a .ml comm, soo it came here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Some of the more recent crossposts here have been by the artist @SchickeSchickeSchweine@mastodon.gamedev.place, they are on the Fediverse at least so you can DM them on from Lemmy even though they’re on Mastodon
I hope you have lots of fun though on your journey! Hopefully we’ll see some of your work here :)
Haha yea, definitely not for taking stances against them, and they definitely don’t have established precedent for banning people who question them or the authoritarian regimes. Oh wait:

You: >They are banned from many instances
Me: >No I’m not, just the authoritarian instance of .ml
You: >Ah ha so you admit your banned rabble rabble rabble
Resorted to bad faith arguments in 1 reply LMAO
Yes I’m banned from .ml, that’s what tends to happen when you stand against authoritarians; bans, censorship, jail etc.
Ig you guys have just resorted to pure lying LMAO
None of my accounts have been widely banned and I haven’t made a new account in a long time, just cycling through the same ones on smaller instances lol
cm0002to Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Single-handedly making Lemmy more enjoyableEnglish211·3 months agoI just crosspost the post from 1 .ml comm to 1 relevant non-.ml comm maintaining the crosspost as best I can so that it collapses (for people with supporting clients at least)
Not really fitting the common definition of “spam”, Users like Chobeat are probably closer to an actual spammer since when they post to the technology -.ml comm I can’t crosspost it anywhere because they literally sent it to just about every “technology” comm on the Threadiverse LMAO
but even then I wouldnt consider it actual spam
I’m also not evading bans, my accounts are not banned anywhere to the best of my knowledge (well except for .ml, but that’s a given lol) and I just rotate through them over and over again. I haven’t made a new one in a long time.
In fact, I’ve recently added a listing of accounts used for this crossposting purpose to the bottom of my megathread here if you wish to block them and I’m updating the bios on each account as I use them to include a similar blurb for people
cm0002to Fediverse memes@feddit.uk•Single-handedly making Lemmy more enjoyableEnglish536·3 months agoAn… appreciation post…that’s a nice change of pace lmao
Thanks! I’ll keep doing what I can! 🫡
Yes, okay, so why include a social credit score in PieFed? One of the main things communist China is critized for. It seems to me like one of the main reasons lemmy was created was to get away from the social credit score/karma idealogy, so why include it in PieFed?
Can you seriously not see the difference between a government implementation of it on its citizens, tied to their real world semi-permanent identities and has the power to arrest, jail or otherwise “make silent” based on said scores…and a social media app tied to pseudo-anonymous user handles as a tool to ease the already thankless burden of volunteer moderation with 0 real-world consequence should you run afoul of it? Or are you just trolling?
Probably trolling considering you’re from the exploding heads-light instance lmao
Are you aware there are shit ton of metric ranking systems out there in the world? Are they all social credit scores? Man hope you don’t find out about how internet routing protocols like BGP decides on routes LMAO
You still can’t talk about the Hannibal Directive to me, huh? Another critique of mine about PieFed. Seems to be an Israel supremacist instance, where you can’t even discuss Israelis own Reichstag fire event that got Jews to support a genocide against a semite population.
Irrelevant to the conversation at hand, we’re talking about the server software at hand, not the namesake instance itself
I think I understand your comment for the most part, so if that’s the case, why do you contribute to .ml at all if you’re already against his authoritarian ideologies?
There’s lots of general meme comms you can contribute to that are off-world as well (I think a lot of us are also now avoiding posting to .world, I for one have completely cut myself off from posting there) besides this one there’s
!memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com
!memes@slrpnk.net
!memes@reddthat.com
And !memes@lemy.lol
