Yeah, you’re black mold. Noxious and frankly embarrassing. What are you going to do about it?

What are you going to do about it?

Bully you so much you go crawling back to spez lmao

Lol sure, clown. Come at me bro your bullying game is weak. Meanwhile I get to enjoy watching you and yours get run out of town as the migration continues.

Run out of town as the migration continues? Do you... not understand how the fediverse works? Do you not understand you're posting on lemmy.ml right now, and lemmy.ml will never defederate from my instance, lemmygrad.ml?

You're not on Reddit anymore, and I would be happy to give you the crash course.

And yet you will be overrun until lemmy.ml stops accepting new sign-ons, and the new users are all going to continue calling out and outvoting you and yours. You'll be downvoted to oblivion. Because we're not going anywhere, and there's more of us than there are of you.

[-] CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Oh no, not the downvotes. Anything but the downvotes.

Are you 12? Do your parents know you're online without supervision? Maybe they should explain this federation thing to you.

Bullying game is weak, bro. Welcome to the Eternal September. Hilarious that you think Lemmy.ml is immune to defederation, too, just because a developer is a tankie and you rats have been enjoying your little cesspool corner of the fediverse. It's almost like you don't understand this whole federation thing. There are more decent instances than there are putin-apologists, get used to it.

Your best insult is to threaten me with downvotes (which don't do anything on Lemmy, maybe you would like to read the documentation, there are even pictures to make it easy for you, and we're working on a kids' version written in a nursery rhyme, maybe that one will be more your level!) and then do "no you" lmao

Yeah, I'm not worried about the "migration" if you're the best they got 😂

Lmfao you’re not worth my best insult. I’m just sitting back watching all the new users join and laughing at you and yours. But keep defending authoritarian dictatorships 🤡
