      Yes my evil agenda to not restrict the posts I subscribe to on my home instance. To not have every leftist and non-American point of view removed from the largest lemmy instance and to not be subject to an American neoliberal consensus? I’m guilty. Sorry!

      I just don’t understand why everyone wants to defederate and was having a shitposty time collecting downvotes. Why? Because this literally doesn’t matter. There are plenty of tools on lemmy to deal with annoyances including creating your own instances, the subscribed tab, block lists, and lots of stuff that this beta software has in the works on the roadmap. All in all people are taking everything way too seriously for what this is, hobby software run by amateurs and individual people not corporations for sharing links on software that isn’t anywhere near being complete.

      Does moderation suck? Maybe, who cares? Tomorrow is a whole other day of more posts. If you really want to create a new comm on a new instance and do a better job than lemmy.ml, Do it! Ruud did it, you know who isn’t? The people grandstanding and downvoting.

      There is so much negativity surrounding Lemmy it is surreal and way out of bounds for what this actually is. This is why I joke around and post weed memes and sometimes poke a bear. Everyone needs to chill the fuck out. And if you think this is Russian propaganda or whatever that is fine.

        Omg you’re that hypocritical guy that was complaining about people complaining too much about Hexbear. You seriously put your take out there, got ratioed, and now you’re making a post about how people shouldn’t argue in favor of defederation? It’s one thing to say “I don’t think we should defederate from this particular instance” but to complain about people talking about it is far outside the bounds of reason.

        I think you’re a Hexbear person in masquerade because you’re using the weird faux first principles argument style that conservatives and tankies use along with the disengenuous reframing tactics of trolls. People are allowed to care about things that you don’t, and they can argue in favor of things you don’t like. I find it amazing how you accused me of being a child, and now I think you were projecting.

          Dude I really don’t care what you think or say. I caused such a shitstorm on Hexbear I got banned before federation was a thing. Look up vegan circlejerk.

          I am just bored and think this is fun. This is quite literally a shitpost. You want to ratio me? Go ahead I don’t care. I can post whatever I want where ever I want and say whatever I want. The downvotes do not matter to anyone but you and I think you are a loser. You are talking about conservatives and tankies? Mother fucker I just want some posts on my feed for kicks, post some meme bullshit and get high as balls. This is what you are taking so seriously, a man who literally doses with high strength thc and makes people mad on purpose because you neoliberal Americans are the most thin skinned pathetic dorks on the planet. Touch grass.

            Sure.

            I am just bored and think this is fun.

            Ok, so you admit it; you’re a disingenuous troll. Blocked.

        I get the sense that it’s really not about people having leftist or non American points of views removed, but that people are sick of the extreme shit they post and their attitudes. And it’s seemingly entire instances dedicated to being that extreme, not just some individual users.

        Personally though, since users have the tools now to block instances, I don’t think there’s really as much of a need to defederate unless the instance is specifically doing something more than just posting their views. So I agree with you there. Except that having to go out of your way to block stuff like that makes for an experience that isn’t always great. And for me it’s been something that doesn’t really make me want to participate or use the platform much.

          Every one of your comments in the past 2 months has been a complaint, If you don’t want to participate, don’t.

            Ouch, stalked my profile for your response here. And its not even true.

            But yea, calling me out for complaining when your whole post is a complaint. Good job. You are definitely part of the reason I dont participate much on lemmy.

              In a 2 second browse I saw you complaining about sync and literally saying the same thing about not wanting to participate. Good for you, do you want a cookie?
