It's much better here! It’s nice and cozy, kinda like Reddit circa 15 years ago.

For your memes we have !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch, if you like sciency posts mander.xyz has some excellent communities (communities=subreddits) like !science@mander.xyz!biology@mander.xyzand !astronomy@mander.xyz and for a meme science combo there's always the fantastic !science_memes@mander.xyz

You can also drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or hang out at !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone (though you do have to post before you leave that one!)

If you want to explore the world of PC Gaming on Linux check !linux_gaming@lemmy.world or for more general Linux !linux@programming.dev and we even have a Linux meme comm at !linuxmemes@lemmy.world (we like Linux around here lmao)

For news !world@lemmy.world is excellent and for US focused news !news@lemmy.world and !usa@midwest.social

Want to ensure your privacy in this crazy world? Checkout !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

And of course, the best for last, the best comm on the Lemmy-verse, !bikinibottomtwitter@lemmy.world !!! Just make sure to buy a krabby patty!

We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies, but here they’re mostly on what's known as the Tankie Triad: lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. For the most part, grad and hex are widely defederated from (Users and content of those instances won't be "synced" and you won't see them) and you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you’d rather just not deal with them. .ml tends to be more subtle opting for censorship of dissent before things get crazy on their threads and allowing certain propaganda to flourish (If you wish to see documentation of it, checkout !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works ) Here on Lemmy all moderator actions are public and available for viewing on what's known as the "modlog"

Obligatory, fuck Spez

Saying it again to everyone in the back. The modlog is a great feature. Instance Mods and admins can't just disappear people and communities without a trace, and trolls can't make up stories of unfair moderation without bringing receipts and their old account name.

Couldn't an instance admin just disable modlogs or spoof them, though

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Yes, but the backlash would be undoubtedly intense, everyone here loves the modlog (well probably not the trolls/tankies LMFAO)

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 week ago

the tankies were who created the modlog. broken clocks etc

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

For their own instance, sure.

But it won't alter the modlogs of other Instances, which also have a copy if the community is federated to them.

I have arrived

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

It's funny because I bet a lot of us that came on the API wave had/have 15+ year old accounts.

Mines 18.

I had a post from /r/teenagers show up on my homepage and I realized that my account is older than most people there say they are.

[–] FourWaveforms@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Reddit has turned into a real fuck of a fuck over the last few weeks. It was a bad omen when they started charging for API access, but that was just a preview. They're in full-on enshittification mode now.

You get shadowbanned for unspecified reasons, without apparently breaking any rules. They do cute shit with vague error messages rather than tell you what's up. Zero actual communication.

They're also busting people for upvoting super mario kart jpegs for some reason, but when they do that they actually tell you.

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I up voted a Mario Bros Luigi jpg and a few days later my login doesn't work.

That's actually the outcome I wanted, this is a celebration not a rant 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[–] Mouette@jlai.lu 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lemmy.ml living rent free in this person mind lmao. If you spent half the time you spam post crying about them developing a fork of Lemmy you would have actually be free from them now. At this point I'm starting to think you're actually getting paid for spewing brain rot

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Apparently, it's the other way around, i seem to live in davel's head rent free since they went out of their way to un-siteban me to reissue the ban as individual comm bans instead so they could brigade/dogpile on my posts LMAO

In any event, I'm not just making memes either, I have documented their censorship:

And their Authoritarian support

https://lemmy.world/post/25280256

https://lemmy.world/post/25129246

And the propaganda they allow to proliferate

https://lemmy.world/post/27416097

https://lemmy.world/post/27012640

And even what they think of other non-Tankie instances

https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

And that's not only just a sampling of what I've posted, everything I've collected on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works the past couple weeks is a mere fraction of what they've been doing for years, if I actually did a deep dive into the modlog id probably find MUCH MUCH more

I do this because I consider Tankies to be an ongoing threat to the reputation of the Lemmy-verse and it's health, I've already seen expressions by others elsewhere like Reddit along the lines of "I tried Lemmy, but it seemed to be a bunch of tankies so I left".

[–] Mouette@jlai.lu 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes that what I said they live rent free in your head get a life please, and accept that people on the internet might have different opinions than yours. Do you realize their might be people of different nationalities on Lemmy that have grown with their national narrative which might be different than yours ? Can you let them discuss and interaction with others without harassing them and spamming your narrative, which we can already find everywhere on internet especially on reddit ? We understood China and Russia bad thanks for the memo I hadn't had it yet.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

"Why are you wasting your time fighting their left-flavored authoritarianism and toxicity‽ Just step aside and let them be to allow well known Russia/NK propaganda outlets to spread and proliferate and that "Russia is actually the good guys" already"

Thanks for the concern, however, I'll spend my free time how I see fit.

Most of my work is focused on documentation and the occasional meme, I find it funny and interesting that you hate that so much. But as we all know, authoritarians hate it when people expose them.

[–] Mouette@jlai.lu 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You are not fighting anything my guy you are actively harassing the very own people that develop the algorithm that let us interact together because, god forbid, they have different political opinion than you. Just go back to Reddit if you want an US echo chamber.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Please point me to this "harassment". Am I messaging them directly constantly? Am I following them on GitHub and posting on their comments?

Because documenting what they say and the actions they take is not "harassment", that sounds like a line straight out of the Drump administration or Muskrat TBH. In fact, I'm pretty sure Muskrat did use that line of narrative with that one person who was documenting his private jet flights.

Like I said, Authoritarians hate when people track what they do and will use all manner of words to discredit it, "harassment", "fake news" etc.

Just because you're doing good dev/open source work, does not mean you get a free pass to push and spread toxicity and harmful propaganda. Especially when using power and influence from that work to do it.

🙄 “Authoritarians” hate being tracked so much that they created the modlog.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago

A broken clock...and there are some rumblings they are screwing with it. I have not seen direct evidence myself of it, so I don't push it.

But there are some breadcrumbs, like how it used to actually list the mod or admin that took the action and now it just says "mod" or "admin"

Or how .ml's modlog has the ability to filter by mods disabled but other instances don't
