Yea I kno lol, some .ml users are none to happy about my cross-posting in protest of their admin's behavior
I left it because changing the link would break crosspost detection and if that happens they'll ride in here complaining about "Why did you just reupload and not use the crosspost functionnnn"
They should get more creative tho, this is like the third time they've done this "poison pill" tactic LMFAO
That is wild man. You have a +350 from me on Voyager. I've seen you around interacting constantly, with well thought out a soften insightful comments. I've never seen anything truly hateful from you either. Why on earth do they think you're a genocidal racist?
And if you're not, which is likely, why try and bully off someone with so much use to the platform? If you left people would notice the loss quickly.

Lol that's just what they do when they've come to the conclusion that the "debate" isnt going in their favor, you call them out on their crap or become of a particular thorn in their side. I've been called everything from a paid CIA shill to a Nazi to even right-wing/conservative (they think they're the only true leftists and everyone else are fake leftists that are actually right-wing if you don't support Russia or the CCP)

They don't care, they'd rather see Lemmy growth with users of tankie ideology or no growth at all. They're generally often the ones telling other users who theyve deemed to be non-Tankies to "Go back to Reddit"
I consider them to be an ongoing threat to the overall healthy of the Lemmy-verse at large
[email protected] is always a good stop if you want to see more
like especially with the context of the other guy's comment. you're a super user, growing their website for them. but you hate them, and are still fully enabling their objective by your actions. but you hate them.

I'm growing other instances, this is the Lemmy-verse, there is no "one website" to grow. And as far as growing instances go, I don't contribute anything to their instance. By contributing to other instances, it will hopefully drown out the toxicity of what they want to use their instance for and maybe someday make it an easier decision for admins to defederate.
if you're so unhappy with the creators of this entire platform, why are you here at all? i joined a short while ago and started posting about dota in the largest dota group i could find, only to find out later that you've been reposting my stuff?
you can read my comment history and decide if i'm a tankie i guess, but i doubt you're willing to do that since you clearly started reposting my threads without doing that.

Lemmy is an open source link aggregator type social media server software, there is nothing political about it or its code. Individual instances of it and how they are run are what can be politically good/bad/neutral. You don't see me with a .ml account. Nor will I ever give them money directly, I'll just donate money to individual instances to their running costs.

First, cross-posting is a built-in core feature of Lemmy, second I don't cross-post on a user basis, as a small part of my boycotting efforts of the .ml instance admins behavior, I cross post from a .ml comm to the closest relevant non-.ml comm. I get a notification of a new post on a .ml comm and I cross-post it away, I don't do user profile scrubs before doing so, I already know who the "major players" are.
you're explicitly not crossposting, as you literally wrote above.
lemmy is still their baby. you are still completely and entirely playing the game on their terms. why would you not prefer to use a whole other social media platform at this point?
if i can find stuff on different lemmy using the same account and comment there as well, for many purposes it's the same website.
ALL you're doing is growing the crowd for the people you hate, mr superuser. no matter how you paint it.
your energy is so much better used on another platform at this point dude and keep letting lemmy shit itself and be ran into the ground by the tankies. just tell me where you go because there's not much conversation on this website at all.
lemmy is still their baby.
And they openly choose to give it away so anyone could use it how they see fit. And indeed, if they kept lemmy.ml truly unbiased as the "Flagship" they position it to be and ran a separate instance that didnt use that status to push harmful propaganda and misinformation, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Instances would have defeded from it like the rest of the triad and moved on. It's the fact that they use this position to basically bully other instances to staying federated with them, so that they can continue spreading their crap, that drives what I do.

You do not have an understanding of how the Lemmy-verse or even Fediverse at large operates, what you said is fundamentally untrue and is the opposite of the entire point of the underlying ActivityPub protocol.
There is no "one platform" or "one website" the entire reason ActivityPub came to be was so that social media would be decentralized for once. I could jump to another platform as you say, there are a few Lemmy alternatives like PieFed. However, because everything is federated, the Tankie problem is still there, still causing damage and still threatening the overall health.
Besides, it's not 2021 anymore, the number of instances on the Lemmy-verse far outweigh the tankie-aligned instances (in fact, I can't think of a single one outside the Tankie Triad), they're just a very loud minority. Unfortunately, the very loud part is what's the most damaging.
