The guy who started this whole thing by asking lemmy.world admins to defederate with lemmy.dbzer0.com is a lemm.ee account and he has asked lemm.ee to take similar action

Doesn't matter who started it, all that matters is how the admins handle it. If all it takes is a new user asking for a community or instance to be blocked/de-federated and it just happens no questions asked, the admin in charge are to blame, not the person for asking.

[–] Sentau@lemmy.one 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That was not my point. My point was that the guy who planted the idea in the heads of the lemmy.world admins has planted the idea in the heads of the lemm.ee admins. They may or may not respond similarly as the lemmy.world admins

[–] Whirlybird@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Again - doesn't matter. The admins are the ones making the decisions. The admins are the ones that made this dumb one.

Good on them if they don't fall to the bait

If I can just put things in the heads of the admins by making a post, then there's something wrong with those admins.

Why don't I just make a post suggesting they defederate from everyone and become a whitelist only server. Obviously they won't do that because it would be the end of the instance so they do actually think about things. They just used this random person posting as an excuse. Hell, for all we know it's one of the admins using an alt, and they just want an "excuse".

I'm pretty certain the lemm.ee dev won't block it. Time will tell.

You can find the guy's account in this post's thread.

[–] garam@lemmy.my.id 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

please mention the username. I tried to search, but none found, bunch of lemm.ee...

[–] Sentau@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Question is why are you so eager in wanting the username. The guy's username is of little consequence

It is @Bungiefan_ak@lemm.ee

I only hope you don't use this to harass the guy or something

[–] SineNomineAnonymous@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Since it's a throwaway troll account, it wouldn't be a massive deal anyway.

[–] garam@lemmy.my.id 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. Just curious 🤪

But he is not the Admin right? Why he can push the Admin to defederate. I'm curious 😂

[–] Sentau@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any user can message an admin on lemmy with any sort of recommendation.

[–] garam@lemmy.my.id 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I think. Well now I can see his post, seems his approach quite hostile. It's free entertainment to see people talk to each other in internet. Thanks
