Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

no one's arguing that they can't make up their own rules.

i don't want power tripping mods/admins or suppressive policies to make that decision for me; that's why so many people and I left reddit; i'm an adult who can make up my own mind and the lemmyverse already has the tools to empower me to do so.
this isn't reddit or a walled garden; in the fediverse it's the vegetables section of a community garden that was designed to maximize cross pollination and defederation episodes like this are like trying to install a permeable gate that don't stop that cross pollination.
The concept of defederation is literally the single most important core feature differentiating the Fediverse from centralized social media. I find it interesting that you feel employing it to be antithetical to the concept of federated networks.
Yes it was and its misapplication in targeting the same group repeatedly is laying bare its flaws and that's why it doesn't work
If it doesn't work then why are you still posting?
