I’m all for debating the validity or not to consolidate communities, generally it’s a case-by-case discussion.

If you want to discuss any of those points, you can open a thread on !fedigrow@lemmy.zip .

Seems like that person blocked dbzer0 from the archive link, so that will probably be the end of it

[–] Blaze@lazysoci.al 1 points 9 hours ago

Yes, it will probably happen at some point down the line, but not now

Good luck with your community still!

I've discussed with @Zagorath@aussie.zone several times before, they've always been nice. Let's not forget that there was indeed a power tripping action that db0 corrected.

Things are more nuanced than "this person has a hate boner"

And that thread is now 10 days old and has not had any further comment from the db0 people.

The dbzer0 people commented on the other thread I linked in that comment.

The main dbzer0 admin:

This was unexpected but I’m glad goat came to their senses and realized we’ve never been tankies. Unfortunately all this caused a lot of bad blood which will take a while to heal, but I personally don’t hold grudges like that.

They might not be as bad as Lund is, but they’re at the very least of the same kind.

That whole episode was quite something, there's a detailed post about it if you want: https://aussie.zone/post/24299113?scrollToComments=true

My comment there was this one: https://aussie.zone/post/24299113/18642086

Basically, PugJesus was keeping using one comment from a dbzer0 admin, when that same admin made another comment just after that clarified their stance.

There was a lot of antagonism at the time, now things to have calmed down for a bit.

And if you want to see actual admin abuse, let me show you this comment, with a SJW admin calling me an "energy vampire": https://aussie.zone/post/17029239/14339689

I never reached out to the other SJW admins about that chain of comments, that admin doesn't seem that active anymore, but just to say that no admins are perfect, I try to not hold grudges to other instances if another admin stepped in and correct the wrongdoing of another one.

Edit: just had a look again, the SJW admin was defending the power trip of the !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone mods.

admittedly, a different admin seems to have stepped in to correct some of the abuse

Seems faster and more fair than what LW is doing due to rules overhead:

Edit: goat commented after reversing the dbzer0 bans on ! meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works , which was part of an escalation between PugJesus and goat on one side, and dbzer0 users and admins on the other

I want to start by saying that I know I played a part in letting this spiral out of control. For my part in escalating the situation, I apologise. I do not want this to keep escalating. I want to explain where I was coming from and why I made the choices I did. For starters, I was suffering, and still am, from a loss in my family. I try to keep my personal life separate, but anxiety still seeps through. I’ll try to keep that under control better.

Well, for alt detection you have https://lemmy.lvanrem.com/

I was going to ping MrKaplan for the other tools, but I guess he's busy enough with JL review

[–] Blaze@lazysoci.al 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Indeed, I kind of missed that when I read the comment the first time

[–] Blaze@lazysoci.al 1 points 2 days ago

Happy to help!

https://lemmy.zip/ (or https://piefed.zip/ if you want to give Piefed a try) are good generalist options

[–] Blaze@lazysoci.al 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The comment above is transparent enough for me: https://lemmy.world/comment/19613753

i’m hoping that we can finalize it this weekend, as weekends tend to be when people have more time available.

It's okay, I started posting to !world@quokk.au to keep myself busy in the meantime

Flairs have been implemented by Piefed before Lemmy. Crosspost comments consolidation as well. A built-in instance chooser when you try to register.

The list is here: https://join.piefed.social/features/

 

Archive link in the URL, in case it doesn't work: https://archive.is/EhGyF

The link should speak for itself, it felt already a bit on the limit of personal attack, but here's what made me remove it

I'm all for debating the validity or not to consolidate communities, generally it's a case-by-case discussion.

I gave more reasons in the thread, but basically it's to ensure that communities stay active enough rather than all fade and die each on their own.

I'm also open to unpin that pinned post if it's considered controversial.

If you want to discuss any of those points, you can open a thread on !fedigrow@lemmy.zip .

But arguing in bad faith when already targeting me with a meme, it's no.

Note that the meme was also reported by someone else as a personal attack, thank you to that person.

I just added an additional rule to the community sidebar

Memes should not be personal attacks towards other users

Sanctions:

  • removed the post
  • 7 days ban

Edit: copy pasting a comment I made there

Let's have a look at my regular activity

At the same time, I still regularly help new Lemmy.world users:

I will repeat, 95% of the active communities are currently on Lemmy.world: https://piefed.zip/communities?search=&home_select=any&subscribe_select=any&topic_id=0&feed_id=0&language_id=0&instance=&sort_by=active_weekly+desc

It feels ironic to be called out about "not wanting to spread out" when I'm actively trying to spread the communities
