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

  • I would say db0 has had a few red flags here and there, but they're still far from being the 4th Tankie instance

    Keep in mind tankies have been known to create accounts on non-tankie instances to create this sort of division and generally troll

  • It's .ml, if you don't simp for authoritarians they ban you too, join the .ml boycott today and just don't participate on anything .ml

    Also, just don't post the reddit link back, fuck reddit don't give them any traffic back

  • Not a bot, all my crossposts are done by my 2 hands lmao

    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:

    .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.

    But if you want you can check the bio of this profile that links to a list of all accounts used for this purpose

  • Because things, unfortunately, cost money to run. Digital crowdsourcing isn't magic, it requires adequate infrastructure to run and facilitate said crowdsourcing data.

    Static maps are easy, load em up on a server and people just download one way. Sure it might get a little slow when busy but eh.

    Live things however require constant near-real-time communication to be useful. And that requires servers and bandwidth and other infrastructure.

    And that's not even going into how the premium fee goes back into further development and refinement of other features and maintenance.

    And before you say "Well, federation!" I say well look at the Threadiverse, each is comprised of individual instances that's true. But each instance, has a bill they have to pay to keep running.

  • Tbf, that's dirt cheap and getting used to "free" products like Google Maps with live traffic is kinda how we got in this mess on the first place LMAO

    I don't think having a paywall in of itself is bad, so long as it's a good affordable and reasonable price and isnt going to some giant corpo
