Welcome to lemmy.ml , where we've rejected reality and substituted our own!

[-] A_Chilean_Cyborg@feddit.cl 5 points 17 hours ago

Don't mix Adam Savage with such a stupid community!

[-] LostWanderer@fedia.io 24 points 1 day ago

Oof, it's a shame that this cretin has created Lemmy; I can only hope that other instances block lemmy.ml so they can stay in their own delusional little space without bothering the rest of us.

Dessalines makes a relatively good piece of software for completely the wrong reasons, but he won't stop us from using it for our own purposes and we don't have to acknowledge him as the "leader" of the community just because he runs the software project. That said, I'm also glad we have alternatives like Piefed, in case he tries to enshittify us out, we have alternatives.

[-] LostWanderer@fedia.io 3 points 22 hours ago

That's what I appreciate about open source software...People are free to make our own alternatives and connect with others using that software and infrastructure! We aren't trapped by any means and can migrate to the growing alternatives. I've latched on to fedia.io and Mbin which is actually a stable version of Kbin (the original creator was going through it and need to take time off). I can connect with Piefed users from here, so there's no reason to make an account there (Fediverse rocks for this reason).

However, my reference to Dessalines was more about tarnishing the creation known as Lemmy with his mad ranting about falsehoods and other tankie nonsense. He's just a flawed person that is still sleeping, desperate to avoid the truth and glaze countries that are the worst to their people and others in the world. Likely knows that if he pushes it further, by limiting the use of Lemmy it will come crashing down. Somewhere in the fever dream that traps him, sense still exists.

Loving Piefed on desktop, looking forward to switching to it on mobile at some point too.

[-] Klear@quokk.au 2 points 17 hours ago

Installed Boost beta and switched this morning. So far so good!

Piefed gang!

Interstellar does work with PieFed (and Lemmy and Mbin), if you're using Android. It's getting a fair bit of development activity relative to the app that I mostly use on Android for Lemmy, Eternity, but it's also younger and still rougher around the edges, IMHO. I would keep an eye on it, though, if you're interested in a PieFed app.

They're also adding iOS and MacOS support, though neither appears to be complete as of this writing.

I believe that it currently has the widest OS and instance support among native Threadiverse apps.

This is why I switched to piefed. It even has support from apps like Voyager and Boost.

I also just got banned by dessalines from asklemmy on lemmy.ml for saying lemmygrad and hexbear has tankies which apparently violates Rule 1 - No Bigotry.

[-] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 4 points 15 hours ago

Same here, with a bonus Rule 4 "ads/spam", plus dessalines got so mad he banned me from all the communities I interacted with, and the entire instance for 3 months

[-] lmdnw@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Supporters of authoritarianism deserve the same fate as the authoritarians.

Welcome to MoG!


Meanwhile On Grad


Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!


What is a Tankie?


Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)


Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia(Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.

You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
