For all your boycotting needs. I'm sure there's some mods caught in lemmy.ml's top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire.

!memes@lemmy.world and !memes@sopuli.xyz. Or of course communities that rule.
!asklemmy@lemmy.world
!linux@programming.dev. Quite small, plenty of more specific ones available. Also linux is inescapable on lemmy anyway :)
!programmer_humor@programming.dev
!world@lemmy.world
!privacy@lemmy.world and maybe !privacyguides@lemmy.one, lemmy.one itself seems to be up in the air. !fedigrow@lemm.ee says !privacy@lemmy.ca. They really seem to be hiding even from another, those tinfoil hats :)
!technology@lemmy.world
Seems like !comicstrips@lemmy.world and !comicbooks@lemmy.world, various smaller comic-specifc communities as well as !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
!opensource@programming.dev
!fuckcars@lemmy.world

(Out of the loop? Here's a thread on lemmy.ml mods and their questionable behaviour)

We getting one of these a day now?

If you don't like it, petition your admins (via posts on your own instance) to defed.

If they don't want to, find a new instance that does, or stay and block their instance so you don't see their subs.

If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they're more active.

I just don't see the point of these posts when most Lemmy users have been around for a while and know what lemmy.ml is like by now.

Be the change you want to see, post in those communities yourself instead of these daily announcements threads on an instance that's already defederating apparently

Lemm.ee will not defederate over tankie mods, there's a specific policy. As to the change I want to see: Guess what I did just before I posted the list, go through all my subscription and clean it of lemmy.ml.

I very much doubt there's going to be one a day, these kinds of things tend to ebb and flow. Also it would've been much faster to ignore this thread than to reply.

Ok?

So if you disagree with their policy enough, you can change instances.

Or you can stay, and build up those alternative communities instead of asking people to do it for you.

Like, the logic behind this isn't difficult, and I thought you'd be able to grasp it.

That's why I bothered to reply, instead of just blocking you. Same chance I gave some of the lemmy.ml subs before blocking their instance.

You're handling it about as well

So if you disagree with their policy enough, you can change instances.

You can move your home instance where you log in? Explain how. That was going to be one of things I suggest you could do in future updates.

Not that I would move right now. I'm happy on Lemmy.World but I'd like the option.

You can move your home instance where you log in? Explain how.

I mean. Since you asked so politely...

You can export your settings in a .json file, then create a new account on a new instance an import your settings.

But like, you need to try and be better when you're asking people for help.

I just don’t see the point of these posts when most Lemmy users have been around for a while and know what lemmy.ml is like by now.

I got here about a month ago. I only found out what lemmy.ml was like BECAUSE of these kinds of posts.

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

You should read the sidebar's at least, they're heavily biased, but upfront about it.

It's been their safe space longer than most other instances have been around. It's also a good idea to look at modlogs when coming across a new sub/instance.

Not everything shows up there though. Like if someone is banned and has all their content removed, it won't all show up in the log. But when individual comments are removed, it'll show you what was said.

Don't just assume everyone online will be upfront about their biases

these daily announcements threads on an instance that’s already defederating apparently

Where has LW announced that they would be defederating?

If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.

Which is what they are trying to achieve by promoting those communities in this post?

People kept saying it one of the recent daily threads people have been making.

Which is what they are trying to achieve by promoting those communities in this post?

You think posting repetitively here is the same as:

If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.

How does that make sense?

But if you want to move discussion off their communities make posts in those alternatives. That would actually do something.

These posts are Susan G Kommen levels of difference making...
