Why does it need to be centralized? We are on the fediverse after all. Everyone gets their little slice of hell!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Technically, there's nine instances of hell and one instance of limbo.

At least that's what my friend Dante told me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

i thought there were two canon limbos.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And they are federated with each other, and defederated with all other instances.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I thought traitors.hell was still federated with the real world? Or did misunderstand the documentation that Dante wrote up?

Can i block other hell instances?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

Piefed allows you to actually block other instances rather than hide them like Lemmy does

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, but they can still see your content and comment on it within their own pits/burning lakes/etc., so they spend all day long mocking you and talking about you behind your back where you can't see but you still know they're doing it.

That's part of what makes them hell.

Ah, so this is where the mystery downvotes come from on posts which have nothing in them to downvote at all!

You get those, too? I guess it's nice to know sometimes that whatever you're doing has pissed off the gibbering hordes of the damned; it means you are annoying the right people.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I've always assumes they were just accidents, I know I've accidentally downvoted things scrolling on my phone, I usually go back and undo it but I imagine I sometimes don't notice

We are doing God’s work, how poetic
