Rules

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

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

Found this and thought it would be relevant. It's no more or less wordy than the other perspective. IMO it's no more or less justified. Many of the people rallying behind the one perspective lost full credibility to me when it began claiming who was who on the interwebs (and it's true people here are the only ones who think many of the things they think). To its credit, it makes sense, so I'm sharing.

I don't want to get involved in this drama, I haven't read the linked post, and I only perused the links in the other thread, but I have a couple points I'd like to add.

Firstly, it should be noted that the age of both your account, and the OP of the other post, is less than four days. That leads me into my second point.

lost full credibility to me when it began claiming who was who on the interwebs

Unearthing sock puppet accounts is a tale as old as the internet. Back on the bad site (Reddit) using a sock puppet for vote manipulation was one of the few things that would consistently get someone site-banned. Over on Wikipedia the same is true. Both those sites don't ban alt accounts, only using them to manipulate for personal gain. Which makes me really suspicious of you both, what your intentions are, and who's behind these accounts.

(and it's true people here are the only ones who think many of the things they think)

Thirdly, if you're talking about here on Lemmy, or here in c/fediverselore, that very clearly isn't true. For a start, this is some off platform drama that no one seems to super care about. But as well, the other OP linked to a bunch of posts on other platforms (namely reddit and deviantart IIRC) of people that very obviously thought these things. This quote from you genuinely sounds like something Cheeto Man would say.
