I’m going to tag him in voyager to remind myself to reply to any comment of his that I see and have the word bro in there at least once.
Well 95% of all the people on the fediverse came from Reddit, so it’s bizarre when people pretend that it’s any different here. The only difference is in popularity.
People like that seem to be who piefed is made for.
I’ve upset a prominent mod on Lemmy.world so much by simply having a differing opinion that they banned me from their sub instantly and permanently (with no ban reason given) and then must have vine and asked their other mod buddies to ban me from their communities that I’d literally never so much as even visited lol. Within probably 15 mins of the initial ban I was banned from 3 other communities permanently, and that mod wasn’t a mod on them.
I messaged a few of the other mods on the main sub to let them know what he did, but didn’t hear so much as a peep from them.
Are you even a “progressive” if you’re not constantly actively looking for things to be offended/outraged about so you can try and censor someone who has a different opinion?
From what I’ve seen Piefed seems to be just Lemmy but packed full of every pro-censorship tool you could ever imagine to aid in creating a “safe space” echo chamber for pussies.
In theory sure, but not in reality. Most communities are already consolidated on here, so shitty mods have control just like they do on reddit. “Just make a new sub if you don’t like the mods” didn’t work in Reddit and it doesn’t work on the fediverse for the exact same reasons.
What we need is for mods to basically have no power over users or what they say. No bans, no deleting comments, no removing posts - just let people ignore/block who they want, and give them robust filtering options. It would be infinitely better for everyone who isn’t a big girls blouse who craves censorship of differing opinions.
Or even better - just let us moderate what we see ourselves. There’s no need for some wannabe dictators to get to decide what we can read or say. I don’t need or want an echo chamber of the mods preferred:allowed opinions and ideologies. As long as it doesn’t break the law just leave it and whoever said it alone, and let everyone else decide how they want to handle it.
Still not seeing how it can’t be used as a scratchpad?
Nothing in that link changes what I said.
How can’t it be used as a scratchpad anymore?
And let’s not pretend we don’t know exactly which extreme he is on. He’s probably crying about Kimmel being “cancelled for free speech” as we speak.
