    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.

    Megathread on the issue

    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

    "Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

    “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, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

    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.

    I 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

    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
