Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

If they end up with zero federation will they have the self awareness to realize they're the common denominator?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago

No.

It's the "snowflakes that can't handle the truth".

The community originally wasn't federated to begin with

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

though they forked Lemmy in the first place did they not? Not much to federate to back then

Weird that two troll instances would be defederating from each other. Out trolled?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 months ago

Hahahahahahaha. Imagine defederating from Lemmygrad over supposedly protecting trans people while continuing to shill for the CCP. Oh my god.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh no!

Anyway

What? An instance I don’t care about might defederate from another instance I don’t care about? WILL THE SUN EVEN RISE TOMORROW?!? WHAT’S THE POINT OF ANYTHING?!?

One of the reasons I moved from lemmy.ml to lemmy.ca was to avoid the Hexbear troublemakers. Absolutely not surprised to see they're still involved in drama.

Do I need to be canadian to join you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

No, but many of the local communities are Canada-focused.

Ooo! Ooo! Now do midwest.social!

With the Reddit and Twitter drama my secret suspicion was that our billionaire overlords decided we had too much collective power and that they had to fragment us.

Our response to their fragmenting was to fragment into tiny spaces and then communicate with one another.

And now that fragmentation is not enough so we must fragment more until our billionaire overlords are satisfied that each of our tiny collectives have no ability to communicate with one another or organize to prevent them from doing any evil thing that they want to do.

Congratulations we've all been played. Good game, see you on the next go round.

I don't think you understand what's happening: lemmygrad.ml and Hexbear are two awful Lemmy instances to which every other instance is pretty much defederated at this point. This doesn't affect anyone but the users of those instances. This is not some conspiracy against Lemmy, and I don't see any reason why Lemmy would be a victim of such a conspiracy, it's not big enough for social media companies to care

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

lemmygrad.ml is a real instance full of tankies. Lemmy.ml is the flagship lemmy instance run by the developers. It's a bit communist flavoured compared to Reddit, but because so many people use it, not really.

Oops- I said the wrong instamce
