Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

One solution, perhaps, is if Lemmy users were better able to overcome the inertia of moving Communities, Instances, accounts, etc. Essentially to be a moving target for anyone who might want to cause harm. DDoSing lemmy.world? Okay, but we're all on lemmy2.world now. Spamming a Community? Oh, you mean that one we all left?
I'm not criticizing others, because I'm as guilty of it any anyone, but it might be better if we realized that our usernames are meaningless, there's no Karma, our comment histories are full of ephemeral observations with only a very specific relevance. It wouldn't really matter if - worst case scenario - everything was deleted. I realise this wouldn't sound acceptable to new users, but since many of us on instances run by one person as a hobby, that might happen anyway.
(As I was typing this, someone just replied to a 17 days old comment I made, so maybe this is all rubbish)
Hey, good to see you as usual.
The issue here is more than illegal content gets propagated to every instance, so moving around doesn't help that much in that regard, the issue would remain.
You too, of course.
But, no, it does nothing for after something like this that has already happened. It was just more of a pie-in-the-sky solution to it ever happening in the first place.
Indeed
