https://mastodon.social/@omegahaxors My mastodon account has been permanently suspended. I have my data exported so I can start my account up again, if I ever do that I will update my account link here, but with bad of a taste the platform has put in my mouth, I probably won't migrate.

  • What's changed in lemmy and the fediverse in the past 3 months?

  • Reddit has the worst most awful userbase (it was literally created to be a hangout for pedo-nazis) but has the benefit of normal people diluting the toxic shitheads, so as long as the moderators aren't actively suppressing a community they tend to be pretty normal on average.

    Only problem is that it's nearly impossible to find a subreddit that isn't suppressed to shit by both the mods and astroturf bots.

  • If you want to see an example of how the federation fails smaller communities look no further than almost every comment section in c/vegan is full of people who are vocally and vehemently against it. There's just nothing to stop dominant culture from flushing out the others.

    The algorithm is great for serendipity but absolutely useless at protecting the more niche subjects from the most annoying comments.

  • There's concerted efforts by actual nazis to shit this place up because they see it as a genuine threat.

  • Let me guess, pitbulls? Racists have been using them as a dogwhistle for awhile now.

  • Places that advertise themselves as being free speech

    • Expectation: You are free to say whatever you please
    • Reality: Oops! All CSAM/racism and they ban on a hair

  • How did you meet the love of your life?

    Jump

  • The closest I ever found to love was a result of me being unapologetically myself. I was a terrible person but it turns out that someone was into that. By the end I was involved with someone else's life by no effort of my own; exemplified by the fact that my first memory of them is a few years after their first memory of me. Sadly as I grew as a person we fell off and this time i'm finding it a lot harder to find someone who likes me.

  • Vibe check: What are your impressions and experiences of Lemmy, Kbin, Mbin, and Beehaw?

    Jump

  • You can make all the vague guesses you want, I've lived the experience and can say flat out the instance uses respectability politics to shut out criticism. Like it's clear as day to anyone on the receiving end of that what they're about.

  • Will the American Oligarchy Accept Limits or Choose World War Three?

    Jump

  • WW3. History makes this clear.

  • All i'm trying to say is them defederating from lemmygrad tells you everything about that instance that you need to know. Hexbear I get, but grad holds themselves up to a way higher standard of comment quality and there was zero reason to defederate outside political. They literally only blocked the instance because they were communists who aren't afraid to calmly debunk fascist propaganda with sources, and that's an experience corroborated by literally anyone who has had the displeasure of interacting with their polite-fascist administration.

    EDIT: the example you provided is not only completely useless as it guts the original intent of the message but is STILL too offensive for them, as bringing up fascism is already "killing the mood" more than enough for them to remove. Not only that they would accuse you of calling the OP a Nazi which is another way they can shut you down. Believe me I've dealt with liberal fascists my whole life i've heard it all.

  • How do you respectfully say "this is nazi propaganda?" You can't. That's the point. That's why they do it.

  • Why is it that we get nervous around our crushes?

    Jump

  • Because you're seeing them as an idealized object of desire, not as a person.

    How to break out of this: think of a bunch of flaws they could have that would be challenging but not deal-breakers.

  • Mobilizon v/s Nextcloud (v/s other?) for a network of people event calendar

    Jump

  • Kind of shares the same problem I had with Mobilizon in that none of the current instances are in my region, or my language for that matter.

  • There's a phrase for that: Counterjerking too hard. Judging by the reactions you're getting from this, seems you've done it twice in a row.

    Remember, counterjerking is not a principled stance; those who stand for nothing will fall for everything.

  • What's the best advice you've ever received?

  • I quote it nearly every day

    There is no problem that can't be solved by getting off Twitter

  • Hmm wonder why people would quit a circlejerk platform that bans people who call out when someone posts literal fascist propaganda.

  • It's because beehaw mandates its positivity. I once called out one of their posts as being fascist and they banned me for being rude about it.

    I feel like any place that forces people to be positive in a world where there's so much injustice is always going to passively side with evil.
