replace lemmy.world with whatever else you think is a better choice for it

Clarification: reposting here refers to reposting done by another person who was not the original poster

Why though?

We can just subscribe to the community on lemmy.ml, there's no point reposting when it's already there ready to federate.

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 7 points 1 week ago

Because cm0002 is reposting content without prior permission, it made me think about it, people got a real hate boner for lemmy.ml but maybe they have differing opinions for reposting?

"Reposting content without prior permission"?

Do you think that people generally need to ask permission before reposting something (non-OC, anyhow) that was shared on a public forum?

Lulz. I just stole your comment. It's mine now.

NOOOOO I'M GOING TO SUE YOU IN LEMMY COURT

[-] ExtraMedicated@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Lemmy Court sounds like a fun community idea.

[-] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 days ago

Ha yeah. Like a Fedidrama comm but funnier.

Could sue people with silly opinions, drag their butts to Lemmy Court (and probably get dragged yourself too)

I reckon that this topic is - at least partly - about my desire to not have my OC insta reposted by them. So it is about OC.

I don't mind the normal cross post, but this half automated reposting, with the stated goal to reduce the already measly interaction i get posting niche stuff, that i don't like. But apparently, at least according to @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world , I need to see a mental health expert for taking issue with that.

I don't mind the normal cross post, but this half automated reposting

FYI, it's not automated, the most automation I use is notifications. Everything else is done completely manually. And crossposting is easy, a notification comes in and I can take care of it in most cases right away wherever I'm at because, ya know, smartphones LOL it just takes me a few minutes lmao

Also, you're slinging insults at or about mods, comms, admins and whole instances that have nothing to do with it so maybe that's where they're coming from on that lol

[-] bonjour@mander.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

I said half automated. I am slinging insults at you, and the mod, not instances wtf, that is your life's mission. I sling insults at you because you ignored my polite requests to not please repost my content there.

Wait what did they do? I'm new

[-] untakenusername@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

the mods who run it (and also created the lemmy software which makes this whole thing more complex) love stalin and mao (theres a reason why its Lemmy.ml and not .com, the ml stands for marxist-leninist) and putin and often silence opinions they disagree with on their platform. They use their instance to spread their propaganda about authoritarism and communism and while their aren't the only instance to do that, the other ones weren't run by the Lemmy devs, so other instances defederated from them - I'm talking about places like hexbear and lemmygrad

theres people who've been on Lemmy longer than me and have spent time documenting some of the more insane mod actions and views of the .ml admins and Im gunna go find that right now

edit: ok I found it, here's a list of stuff the admins there have done: https://lemmy.world/post/29072279 and here's the community about documenting stuff I got the post from https://lemmy.world/c/meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

posting these as .world links because .ml has blocked them (which of course they did) so I don't then you can sub to that comm from your account

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

They were to the left of netanyahu. centrists don't like that.

.ml is the third instance that centrists have a problem with. When their constant whining gets them what they want and .world defederates from .ml, they'll pick another instance and start whining about that.

[-] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'm sure the moment they defed from .ml after years of complaining about .ml after not doing the thing that would make them happy, dbzer0 will be the next on their chopping block of "Tankie Triad" or whatever the liberal echo chamber says.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

conservatives don't like being reminded that people to their left exist.

until they lose an election and need someone other than themselves to blame.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

They're all part of a conspiracy community where they think every nation or group the West doesn't like is good and, less plausibly, working together. They take issue with anything that goes against that narrative.

Honestly it seems goofy but harmless to me. But, many people take personal offence. And they did make Lemmy.

[-] untakenusername@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

I think it would be mostly harmless if they didnt they to use their unique position as the 'main' Lemmy instance to spread their crazy ideas beyond the confines of their space

like theres other far left echo chambers in the fediverse, but theyve been mostly defederated from, like hexbear

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

So what though? "We're the baddies" has the opposite of mass appeal, even in other cases where it's true and makes sense. They can shout at clouds all they want, along with the flat Earthers.

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yup, and check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works or my periodically updated recap post for why everyone!

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

I don't mind when people crosspost.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Sure, why not. And they can do the same over to their side. And stealing certian content from Reddit would also be good.

I assume crossposts are handled properly by Lemmy's feeds? I don't think I've noticed duplicates much. My answer would change if not, because there's going to be no way to predict people's replication preferences.

[-] tal@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago

I have, before, posted one item that I thought was interesting on !technology@beehaw.org to !technology@lemmy.world, as I know that beehaw.org has defederated from lemmy.world and the item was interesting and otherwise lemmy.world users wouldn't have seen it.

I don't think that I'd try to mirror the complete content of a community, though. I mean, different communities may have different interests.

[-] untakenusername@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

yeah for sure

the main reason i havent defederated is bc of how much stuff is from there
