So wait, a guy who sucks made a thing I don't use and if I complain about him he'll ban me from using it?

That's a long road to a big pile of "who gives a fuck?"

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

and these are the same people mad over rimu blocking and banning tankies from piefed. i look at all those posts why he was banning people.

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml -3 points 4 hours ago (8 children)

oh no a 24 hour ban!

idk how this is hypocrisy, you got plenty of responses for some of the lowest effort trolling i've seen

Its working guys. The decentralization is working. I for one think its amazing that we've created these little social medias to fight like Pokémon and nobody can stop us.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 21 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

A wild lemmygrad appears.
Which instance do you choose as counter?

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 7 hours ago

Uses ban move, protects from criticism.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 18 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I actually don't think the Lemmy Platform decentralization is working at all. This is evidenced by the fact that several times the tankie lemmy devs have pushed a top of the site banner to beg for donations to help run Lemmy ml, and most instance owners admit they're not equipped to audit the code and remove it.

I think Piefed is a superior solution for that reason.

Lemmy is a lot weirder of a place when you start to realize instances are like virtual nation-states and the admin teams are ALL despotic auth-rulers with the temperaments of toddlers.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 56 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

the astronaut meme but its 'wait that is how almost everything ever has worked this whole time?'

lemmy just fundamentally attempts to accept that that is basically how people work, when you boil things down and remove the rationalizations, and tries to provide mechanisms to manage this somewhat less insanely.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

For real. I can't even keep up with what db0's weird ass mod stances are. I just wanna look at memes and chat with people

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

db0 seems fixated on complex governance arrangements. We get it. You're an anarchist. Amazing.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

I'm not even an anarchist, I just wanted a somewhat populated instance with less down time than world. The political ideation of the more hardcore members of db0 certainly seems like a pipedream more than a realistic plan for government (or lack thereof). But hey, I'll take hate for consolidated political power over bootlicking any day.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

anarcho-pragmatism, lol

this shit seems to suck at least a little bit less than most other shit, therfore, join the anarchist instance

unironically i love this

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 4 points 9 hours ago

I agree, but thats not really what im getting at.

Theres this Fediverse Anarchist Flotilla which is supposed to be like an alliance of instances with shared rules and commitments and whatever. It just seems completely unnecessary to me.

Its like... 5 people catch up every week to drink beer and watch a movie. Its great and everyone enjoys it. Then one guy says you need a chairperson, and rules, and a secret handshake, and a versioning system for the rules, and a documented arrangement with some other guys who do the same thing at someone else's house, and your own crypto coin for donations, and all the things.

Its all unnecessary.

[–] Mora@pawb.social 7 points 17 hours ago

are like virtual nation-states and the admin teams are ALL despotic auth-rulers with the temperaments of toddlers

So just like the big ones minus the capitalistic machine...

Lmao. There's so many layers to this.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 20 hours ago (6 children)

The replies to my comment on that post are my favorite. Truly zero self awareness.

PPB is "Pig Pooping on Balls." One of hexbear's favorite reaction photos is a pig with testicles so large they stick out back, and the pig literally has some of its own poop resting on its gargantuan balls.

So I guess they have a list of users they see as helpless, ignorant pigs. Delightful bunch, those hexbears.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 7 points 15 hours ago

Heh, someone downvoted you as if they think you made that up. Can't blame them for that assumption.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

This is so on point for hexbear

They don't seem to realize how unhinged they are

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's mostly bots and a few psyops employees, imo.

Okay but this is actually funny.

Like it was a 24hr ban.

But are you like actually complaining about this and not posting it because it’s funny?

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, I'm not actually irritated about it, I just couldn't find a better place to post it lol. I got a good laugh about it and I figured posting it somewhere would lead to more laughs from the tankies
