Same. I have a few accounts everywhere. Not on beehaw tho cuz too many defederations. I wanna read what my buddies are doing on Lemmy world and s.j.w and I couldn't from here.

Not only that but anyone can join too. It's open registration. However, do note it's so new and small it's gone virtually unnoticed until now.

He didn't lol. Got booted out by the majority already. You can check out the thread. I think maybe like one person voted for him?

[–] truckkun@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Noted. Thanks for clarifying. I think he just wants to give his little pet project Agora a test run to start things up since he just set it up lol. I bet if it were a month into it he wouldn't do that.

That's the thing. You can't do anything but block it. Even banning is just blocking. It's not like you're going over where they live with a rifle and pumping a few rounds into them and their children. Defederation is blocking an entire server. Sh.itjust.works has like 6000 people. Defederating the entire server over one dude with 2 accounts shitposting for attention is a bit extreme in my opinion. However! This is not my instance, and beehaw is the most ban-happy instance I've seen, so I guess you do you lol.

It is possible. Yes. This was confirmed in the sh.itjust.works thread on the same topic by an instance host. He said that you just have to mark the community as "removed" and then no one in your instance can see it. Except admins, probably.

Just wanted to let you know that you can mark the community as "removed" on your backend and it'll disappear from beehaw even if you federate to the the s.j.w instance.

I also wanted to let you know that The Dude created a "Greek Democracy" style system called The Agora. That's probably what he means by "review". He said a few days ago that anything important would be thrown there for the crowd to decide.

I have little doubt that by the end of the week the 1 or 2 users running TD won't have a home there anymore.

They mean that they think that humans in general are very bad because war and theft and hunger and greed and all of that. I mean there's a shitton more than that in life but yeah I think that was their point.

In a sense you're right. But it doesn't necessarily mean it's the "same". If you have r/videos and c/videos, it's be ridiculous to think that the one on reddit is official and then one on Lemmy is a temporary copy waiting for immigrants. Sure, if you have no activity and people refuse to use it and it's a very specific niche thing, maybe you could argue that. But I'd say that most of the time, the communities here on Lemmy and on kbin are just as valid, just as true, and are their own entities independently of whether the users from the "originals" migrate en masse to them.

For example. I mod a music genre community. I just post music I like. If anyone joins that's great. I don't care.

I hadn't even seen that! 😭

I just put on an audiobook, almost sure it was this one. And it may have been hard to understand at first but I didn't care, I was just talking a long walk and decided to leave it on, and by the end I was understanding everything and it was a pretty cool experience.

I have not tried to actually read his books. I actually just got started with reading Alan Moore's "Providence", graphic novel series. What I have is a collection of all of his graphic novels in that universe I think, it's a huge, very heavy book. My copy is in Spanish (link), not sure if this exact collection exists in English but as an English author all his graphic novels are obviously available.

Anyway, I wish I had more time to try and read his works. I just found a download link for 13 of his books for free on Project Gutenberg.

I am trained in nonstop content generation for steemit.com and Hive.io where being a spammer was the key to success. I would post 100 comments a day and 1 post a day because that was the maximum amount of posts per day. Now on Lemmy it seems my spammy instinct came out and I comment and post dozens of times a day on multiple accounts. 🤐
