"I'll write a whiny multipage diatribe to rage quit and insert a script to DDOS the instance that hurt my feelings. That's the behaviour of a well adjusted adult that's doing the right thing."

[–] volore@scribe.disroot.org 101 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Definitely the actions of a person who should be unquestioningly trusted to be the sole arbiter of determining what is fine and dandy and what goes too far on Lemmy. Totally not indicative of every legitimate concern that every single person opposing this brought up being accurate, surely not!

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 72 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My favorite reply from him when I called him out in a different thread: "why can't you just let people use their own computers how they choose"

I'm guessing he has never heard the wisdom of not throwing stones in a glass house. The cognitive dissonance is hilarious, though.

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That dude is an unbearable cunt as a mod as well. I am absolutely not surprised for the fact that he is an unbearable cunt as a developer.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 19 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

IIRC he banned people in all communities he moderated if he found someone that you broke a rule in only 1 community, idk what rules though

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 20 hours ago

so he was basically crossbanning.

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 19 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Yes, he does. And he is very flexible in his own interpretation of the rules. He's the kind of power-tripper I hoped leaving behind on reddit.

[–] cavitationfetishist2@quokk.au 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You don't leave them behind here; you manage their reach.

The disturbing thing is that a LOT of people are like this. The older I get and the more I see of humanity the more it becomes clear most don't mentally age past early teens and many who have big parts of them that don't age past toddler behaviour.

[–] shweddy@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Dont forget locking the post so no one can comment and call you out

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Then coming back to argue on alts

Oh, egads! My Fediverse is ruined!

But what if... I were to censor it, and disguise it as a server error?

Ohoho, delightfully devilish, Patrick

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Honest question, has he tried to defend the DDOS attack? Can’t imagine how one would justify that

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 32 points 1 day ago

It was especially stupid when everyone already was scrutinizing his code. Like users found his secret block list that was better hidden than this, and didn't think anyone would find the ddos code? What a freakin' moron.

[–] ToastedCoconuts@piefed.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I haven't seen him acknowledge it yet

As a lemming, this whole drama is categorical censorial bullshit, but also peak comedy because the fuckwad got caught and publicly called on the carpet

As a software engineer, this is stupid implementation, because you can trivially make this a configurable blocklist of strings and regex. It never needed to even be an argument. Which of course means that it was never about the implementation.

As an open source enthusiast, take the software engineer response, but add: and he’s intentionally pushing his (visibly fucked up and warped) worldview and values onto users, and he tried to obfuscate it to be sneaky. That falls in the realm of malware imo - as in, intentionally mutating the functionality of a project with a specific intent of impact on users, and then attempting to hide the evidence. And then he got called out on it, and got super butthurt, and rage quit the whole goddamn platform.

TL;DR: Good fucking riddance.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 25 points 1 day ago (3 children)

He even tried to wash it off with "but there is a setting to disable it, just navigate 32 sub menus and click toxic mode" and never addressed the fact that his software would hide the shit behind a "technicall issue" excuse

Hello there, fellow Culture enjoyer.

The absolute cherry on top for me was the trigger: a good old-fashioned post upgrade debug session. Your TL;DR ++

I've got a user @XLE@piefed.social doing the same thing in one of the tesseract threads, defending the tesseract dev, trying to say I'm calling for doxxing...by saying we should expose the actions of bigots like the Tesseract dev. Take a look for yourselves, only a conservative could be so low iq and determined, my god.

oy vey-- I can be a real pill. but at least I can admit when I'm wrong. A lady/gentleman apologizes and exits stage left. One doesn't simply ragequit with a side of DDoS!

in all my years of slashdotting, Stumbling, Farking, Digging, redditry, and Lemming, I've never known anyone to go down this hard nor this bitter. WHAT A CUNT!

This beloved character's namesake deserved better

WHAT A STUPID ASSHOLE

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (4 children)

And to top it all off, startrek.website is going to defederate from db0 for TOTALLY REAL REASONS that aren't just being a salty little bitch. They just can't show you proof, cuz it's doxxing.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

is it really website about trek, or is it twisted version of trek? like how LOTR has been twisted by a certain individual who is obsessed with it.

hmmm, i wonder who left the one downvote

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Doesn't even need to be intentional. Voyager's mouse gestures make leaving an accidental downvote while scrolling way too easy for example.

Again, another post celebrating that I’m on the blocklist and Charlie Kirk isn’t.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago (6 children)

He's not saying anything about it though. 🤔

[–] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 34 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Really proud of him for toning down the rhetoric. Guy hasn't said a racist thing since he last went viral.

Get used to it.

Anyone with a Claude Code account can spew out a Lemmy (or any other service) client and make antisocial changes and dump it in the App Store. ✨

[–] Danarchy@lemmy.nz 23 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Everyone’s wrong sometimes that’s just the stale croutons in this human ceasar salad they call “life”. It takes a special kind of grit to be such a massive dog-rocket when your wrong tho

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

puts "dog-rocket" in purse for later use
