Rip, got banned for brigading. I guess it's my fault for ~~casting a few downvotes on some pretty terrible takes~~ engaging with a post.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Add one to the pile of words the mods over there don't know the definition of, I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's pretty funny they're banning people for "brigading" even after their own instance admin told them there was no evidence of that happening.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

I do think my behaviour fits some sense of the word, but I didn't mindlessly downvote every single comment either. I hadn't thought they'd be so petty but oh well.

Did blahaj.zone defederate from lemm.ee?

Something is going on, idk with who tho

Honestly I don’t understand enough of the backend to tell what’s going on, but from what I understand some instances can have trouble with backlog from especially large instances (like lemmy.world) that can make federation slower, it might be related to that? I don’t think Blahaj is particularly large comparatively, but having to spend more time federating with huge instances might still affect how quickly things federate.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

I don't either. My main is on lemm.ee and blahaj.zone has just been gone for a week. But this is why I have accounts on any instance I actually care about, there's so much that can and does go wrong.

Sorry to distract from your post.

NCD is a disgusting community anyway. You're not missing much

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

I never really got the appeal. I get joking about disturbing situations you have to deal with, but not what other people suffer through.

Joking about the impending World War that would affect English speaking countries = based

Joking about what is currently a proxy conflict for English speaking countries = cringe

Honestly I’m not even sure if I ever posted there before this, I only saw it scrolling /c/all when it caught my eye for obvious reasons. If this is how the mods react to some polite but doubtful questions it doesn’t sound like I’m missing much!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't browse all much but when I do I see "jokes" about how killing people is cool and good if the government that claims dominion over you says that the government that claims dominion over them is the enemy.

See 4Chan, the_donald, gamersriseup etc. If pretending to be fash is the joke you can't remove actual fash.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

Gamersriseup was particularly impressive, as it was so obviously a joke in the beginning. Shit's scary!

The funniest thing is that the NCD mod suggested in one of the replies in that dumpster fire of a post that it's the Blahaj mods that are the ones who deserve to be posted there. The lack of self awareness genuinely is staggering..

I would repost the comments here to show I didn’t say anything objectionable (I wrote a decently long comment about how I was checking mod logs and didn’t see removed posts and agreeing with the request for more details) but it looks like they got totally nuked ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, it looks like this meltdown is over some prolific shitposter getting banned from blahaj 6 months ago and I guess OP just now noticed. And also doesn’t understand that not federating posts from banned users is not “removing posts.”

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Once again, Ada just does the right thing and someone got mad about being called out. Glad we've blocked NCD now

And now there's a german claiming there's no genocide in Gaza.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

But I was assured the memes were totally ironic?? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Man, they are BIG fuckin mad about it too, they came back over 20 minutes after deleting my comments to reply to the deleted comment (is that something only mods can do?) to call me a troll and tell me to fuck off.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Jesus, what is going on in that thread...

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah idk what the fuss is about. It seems like half the people in that thread fundamentally misunderstand how this protocol works. Really not something worth a "PSA"
