  • Making the 2 smaller ones not touch each other or one of the small ones not touching with the big one would do it

  • It didn't register as a crosspost, so I didn't see it. Deleting

  • It was crossposted as part of .ml boycott efforts

    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 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 niche comms.

    Megathread on the issue

    Some highlights from the link:

    "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

    .ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068

    "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

    "If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

    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.

  • Yea, shouldn't be a problem, most of the other comms are smaller, niche and slow. On top of that, I WFH so I'm generally always online or at least available to respond to notifications when awake lmao

    Also, these 3 I regularly contribute to already

  • Lol what's a little thorough debunking to a conservatives arguments though LMAO

  • lemmyusa.com is engaging in vote manipulation, suggest defederating unless it is addressed.

    Jump
  • Oh we finally got an actual conservative instance

    HilariousChaos beat them to that, HC is basically a "Nicer Friendlier ExplodingHeads"

    Though at least HC is a real instance and not some sort of manipulation attempt

  • Nah, airlines have their planes in a complex web of routes all dependent on each other, that plane would fly regardless because after it gets (if it got there heh) to the next airport it would also prob have a route from that airport to another

  • far right communities being normalized.

    Weird, that's just the thing tankies label anyone and everything that calls them out or goes against them

    Can't imagine why they'd try to label a comm dedicated to the documentation of the authoritarianism ideology they push, the misinfo and propaganda they allow and the censorship they enforce though

  • .ml can get pretty vile you're right, but don't worry, the link goes to the megathread of the documentation of lemmy.mls extremist simping for authoritarian regimes like Russia and NK and the censorship it entails

  • Lemmy.ml is a lot of things, but blind religious nuts is not one of em

    I've had this user tagged as a religious nut for a long time, so I'm not surprised at all

  • Removed

    Too soon?

    Jump
  • Did you change accounts? My right-wing nut tag seems to have fallen off you

    Don't worry though, I've reattached it to its proper place

  • Guess they just don't want to relate the to beings

    Yea no, I don't want any association with Star Trek and Charlie Kirk, thanks

  • Freshly made for you!

  • Bet it was .ml lmao

    Anyone banned from Lemmy.ml get this achievement unlock:

  • Removed

    The World News community @ lemmy.ml is full of tankies that will censor anyone who goes against their narrative

    Jump
  • That's just what shows because the image host is lemmy․ml, this was part of the .ml boycott cross-posting. Some crossposts might also end up on a different image host but proxied by lemmy․ml, those will also show as lemmy․ml

  • I see your point, I have adjusted the post to the paper title and moved the original title to the body
