You don’t need to “jack rabbit” out, but you shouldn’t be moving like a sloth either, every second of delay delays all other cars behind you and reduces overall traffic flow

Yea, I truly believe that’s one of the biggest blockers.

We can fix a lot of things ourselves or just with time like, lack of content, engagement etc. but without a hard-line against the tankies like wide defederation of .ml (or at least just the big ones like .ml) fixing the outside reputation is going to be a tall order. Even with PieFed

Thanks for your concern, but I’m perfectly relaxed, this is part of my documentation efforts.

People that see the world in black and white are dangerous. The bad, moms basement kind of dangerous.

Yup, that’s tankies for ya

Unfortunately, PieFed just rolled out app API support, so there’s not that many apps yet. It’s mostly just been the web UI

But off the top of my head I believe Voyager is rolling out PieFed support, but iirc it’s still in beta

I don’t think it was on the support comm, but they did respond on a thread about it once on why they don’t defed from them like they did the other 2.

It boiled down to 3 things: big comms, official Lemmy support comms and the fact the devs rolled out instance blocking tools

The 1st one, I’m hopefully solving with my cross-posting and calls for boycotting, the third one is by calling attention to the fact that it doesn’t work as one would think. Pretty sure everyone thought block meant block when it was being discussed.

I’m hoping that !meshtastic@mander.xyz will need to a rebirth of that sort lol

.world has not defederated from Lemmy.ml, I really wish they would, being the largest it would be of huge boost to the health of the Threadiverse

But the others are Hexbear and Lemmygrad (if you wanna see some of the things they say, check this thread out (viewed as a local post outside your client) https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/48132283)

They’re definitely not Tankies, but I don’t know of their politics beyond that…as it should be IMO for any project intended to be widely used

Lemmy.cafe is a wonderful little instance that defeds from the whole Triad while federating with most of the rest of the network

That’s just what the .ml admins do, check out the megathread

Any criticism of them, their instance, the triad, their stances, preferred sources or their favored authoritarian regimes are generally removed.

And, as a cherry on top, they’ll turn around and criticize other instances like .world or SJW as the ones who censor “wrong think” or censor criticism of the instance lol

That doesn’t sound unusual, it’s probably the heat they wanted

is like ‘burning the Library of Congress’

Don’t fucking give them any ideas

You’re right, but also taking together their comment history, we can reasonably assume that they chose their username with the intent to slur rather than as a more benign meaning.

Yea, for the most part, but it’s still fully federated so you’ll still be part of the Threadiverse and will be able to fully see and interact with all of Lemmy’s content and users without issues

But, on PieFed, at least block means block, blocking lemmy.ml or any other instance on PieFed blocks comms and users alike and blocking an individual user on PieFed means they won’t be seeing any of your comments or posts. So none of this mute BS on Lemmy where problematic users can still brigade your content and comment “behind your back” on your posts/comments without your knowledge

Just as the prophecy foretold!

It’s not, the needles or whatever are way to consistent, even in the darker areas. AI would have fucked all that up

Also, it’s a basement well window, I have one of these as well. So OP would be standing on the side of the window in his house and the pinecone is on the other side in the fire escape well

Think of it like looking into a really big terrarium

Lol yea, because constantly spreading Russian propaganda like Ukraine being a Nazi regime or NK actually being really good and definitely not a brutal dictatorship is totally healthy for the Fediverse LMAO

While bozos on Nextdoor and elsewhere continually screech that they must be “up to something,” and “where are the parents?” and other NIMBY horseshit.

One of the main reasons I maintain a ND account, to tell these NIMBY types to STFU and let kids be kids LMAO

In my area though, ND is fairly balanced, so once I start commenting that in a post, others usually join in lol

This has… Meme potential hmmm

It’s the age of the gig economy, I gotta have multiple side hustles going! Lmao
