I am proud of Lemmy.ml for defederating. The second I find out if kbin social or lemmy world defederate or not I will just move to the other one since I use both. (Edit turns out Lemmy.ml is run by Tankies and also allows federation with lemmygrad.)

As a paid up lemmy.ml annual subscriber, I support this and am very happy with my choice. Good job guys.

Exactly. This is why federation is cool. The individual can choose where to go. Oh, kbin and lemmy.world, you didn't defederate from the corporate shills? OK then, I shall defederate myself from you. Plenty of instances.

The admins/devs are communists, they hate anything corporate related, so it's no surprise.

Tankies is a word that better suits them imo. I consider myself a socialist, but those guy are fucking defending the CCP (chinese comunist party) and are very trigger happy with the banning switch. So yeah, i dont think this is a win but more like bussines as usual.

You've obviously never spent any time in lemmygrad.ml.

y not a lil bit of commie, lil bit of demo, demo-commie

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That works for me as well... and most of lemmygrad.ml, but no one ever visits that place, people just talk smack about it based on a few users and posts 🤷.

He paid for a server upgrade, he's gonna get his money's worth.

I mean this is probably a joke, but it's not really their fault, their client is likely malfunctioning.

Lemm.ee is another big-ish general purpose instance that looks to be in favour of preemptively defederating after some polling and discussion there today, in case Kbin.social and lemmy.world continue to stay silent.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I will have to check that out. I tried lemmy.ml but found out it is run by tankies. So I deleted my account there. Lemmy.world are trying a wait and see approach which I think is a bit naive giving metas reputation. But at least they are against Tankies. As for kbin.social I have given the dev the benifit of a doubt since it is one person who works hard on kbin and most likely has not had time to comment on meta. I have faith that he will do the right thing and defederate from meta.
