For all your boycotting needs. I’m sure there’s some mods caught in lemmy.ml’s top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire.

  1. [email protected] and [email protected]. Or of course communities that rule.
  2. [email protected]
  3. [email protected]. Quite small, plenty of more specific ones available. Also linux is inescapable on lemmy anyway :)
  4. [email protected]
  5. [email protected]
  6. [email protected] and maybe [email protected], lemmy.one itself seems to be up in the air. [email protected] says [email protected]. They really seem to be hiding even from another, those tinfoil hats :)
  7. [email protected]
  8. Seems like [email protected] and [email protected], various smaller comic-specifc communities as well as [email protected]
  9. [email protected]
  10. [email protected]

(Out of the loop? Here’s a thread on lemmy.ml mods and their questionable behaviour)

    OpenMW’s official Lemmy community has been on lemmy.ml since 2021, way before lemmy.world existed (and most other instances, too), and way before there was any inter-instance drama. It’s becoming increasingly likely that it’s not going to be a suitable long-term home, but we’d be much happier if we could migrate the existing community rather than start from scratch with a new one. Is there any way to do that yet?

      We love to be the home of smaller communities, but for sure, any larger ones should look into running on their own setup. If you need help, drop us a line!

        [email protected] has less than 150 subscribers, so it’s definitely not large. We’re already swamped with infrastructure work for the stuff we already self-host, so I don’t think we’ll be running our own Lemmy instance any time soon.

      I think it’s good to have regular outreach. I just subscribed to the linux community from this one.

      The other post also has me considering moving my account to a different instance. There were some compelling arguments against centralizing on lemmy.world. (I don’t strongly disagree with the moderation here but I do somewhat disagree with centralizing admin power like on reddit.)

      I wouldn’t mind seeing these regularly. But maybe it would be nice to have someone make specific accounts for that purpose so you can easily block them out of your feed.

    We getting one of these a day now?

    If you don’t like it, petition your admins (via posts on your own instance) to defed.

    If they don’t want to, find a new instance that does, or stay and block their instance so you don’t see their subs.

    If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.

    I just don’t see the point of these posts when most Lemmy users have been around for a while and know what lemmy.ml is like by now.

    Be the change you want to see, post in those communities yourself instead of these daily announcements threads on an instance that’s already defederating apparently

      I got here about a month ago. I only found out what lemmy.ml was like BECAUSE of these kinds of posts.

        You should read the sidebar’s at least, they’re heavily biased, but upfront about it.

        It’s been their safe space longer than most other instances have been around. It’s also a good idea to look at modlogs when coming across a new sub/instance.

        Not everything shows up there though. Like if someone is banned and has all their content removed, it won’t all show up in the log. But when individual comments are removed, it’ll show you what was said.

        Don’t just assume everyone online will be upfront about their biases

      Lemm.ee will not defederate over tankie mods, there’s a specific policy. As to the change I want to see: Guess what I did just before I posted the list, go through all my subscription and clean it of lemmy.ml.

      I very much doubt there’s going to be one a day, these kinds of things tend to ebb and flow. Also it would’ve been much faster to ignore this thread than to reply.

        Ok?

        So if you disagree with their policy enough, you can change instances.

        Or you can stay, and build up those alternative communities instead of asking people to do it for you.

        Like, the logic behind this isn’t difficult, and I thought you’d be able to grasp it.

        That’s why I bothered to reply, instead of just blocking you. Same chance I gave some of the lemmy.ml subs before blocking their instance.

        You’re handling it about as well

          So if you disagree with their policy enough, you can change instances.

          You can move your home instance where you log in? Explain how. That was going to be one of things I suggest you could do in future updates.

          Not that I would move right now. I’m happy on Lemmy.World but I’d like the option.

            I mean. Since you asked so politely…

            You can export your settings in a .json file, then create a new account on a new instance an import your settings.

            But like, you need to try and be better when you’re asking people for help.

      these daily announcements threads on an instance that’s already defederating apparently

      Where has LW announced that they would be defederating?

      If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.

      Which is what they are trying to achieve by promoting those communities in this post?

        People kept saying it one of the recent daily threads people have been making.

        Which is what they are trying to achieve by promoting those communities in this post?

        You think posting repetitively here is the same as:

        If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.

        How does that make sense?

        But if you want to move discussion off their communities make posts in those alternatives. That would actually do something.

        These posts are Susan G Kommen levels of difference making…
