If you're wondering why I'm crossposting .ml content or for an account listing of accounts used for it, please see the bottom of this megathread

  • Do you block accounts that post with very high frequency?

    Jump

  • some kind of paranoia about always needing to register new accounts.

    I mean, you're not entirely wrong, the multiple accounts is for a few different reasons, but one of them is defense against impersonation accounts which has happened to me lol

    But the main reasons for the many instance accounts are kinda unrelated to the ml crossposting kinda are, they are

    1. Promoting smaller instances, because of the volume of my posting it helps makes smaller instances more recognizable
    2. Making comms on fitting smaller instances (e.g. a programming comm id make on programming.dev)
    3. Mitigating against the imposter problem
    4. Better interconnecting smaller instances

    Have you ever put the context thing in your copied posts?

    I've thought about it, but ultimately decided against it, I felt it would make the thread in whatever comm I'm posting it in too off-topic. So instead i just comment it whenever it's inquired about

  • Fair, but I can tell you that a lot of .ml comms only appear to be very large because they're one of the original instances so their comm subscriber counts are quite bloated with dead and deleted accounts (I don't think subscriber counts decrease for any reason other than you actually clicking the unsubscribe button on a comm)

    If you take a look by MAUs (a much better metric to go by) the non.ml Threadiverse is actually very healthy

  • I review each and every crosspost since it's all done manually, I only filter out propaganda (like the constant deluge of Russian propaganda on .ml) and spams/scams

    Obviously I'm human so I make mistakes, it happens, but the point is you can have the freedom to actually call out and/or discuss such things on another instance without needing to worry about getting censored and/or banned by the .ml admin for doing so

  • Context

    I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don't want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some active niche comms.

    Megathread on the issue

    Some highlights from the link:

    Dessalines, head .ml admin, lead Lemmy dev actively spreading genocide denialism https://sh.itjust.works/post/61371958

    .ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068

    "If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

    "Don't worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

    "See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn't count!!" ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

    "NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

    General negative sentiment to other instances who haven't "seen the way" yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510

    And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can't even put them all here because this comment would be really long.

    I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda

    On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like "Lemmy? Isn't that the place with a bunch of tankies?" Or "Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left". The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

    You could always just block .ml :)

  • It's absolutely having the desired effects, when I started I was needing to sift through 100-200 posts every morning when I start

    Now its down to 30-40 and select comms I monitor increase in MAUs

  • Or it tries to name func, vars and types too,

    It tries to do exactly that, it actually uses ghidra for the initial decompilation

  • Decompiling Binary Code with Large Language Models

  • From my understanding, it trys to tackle the hardest part, getting from Assembly back to something human readable and not necessarily compilable out the gate

    A large part of the tedious and intensive process of decompilation is just figuring out what chunks in ASM do what and working it out to named functions and variables
