Ok Moira_Mayhem.

@[email protected] you can post the chat here.

Offense usernames, namecalling or harassing volunteers who tried to help you could be an immediate ban also but here you are.

Do you agree with @[email protected] posting the conversation you had with him in this thread so people know what it is about?

Correct

The admin you had a talk with posted the conversation and he was VERY fair towards you.

Congrats mate 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for everything you do with your instance and with fediseer.

If you call this thread a success you are delusional. You’re condescending to everyone that doesn’t agree with your viewpoints. Which isn’t really new to me

Didn’t you ask us to make an exception for your bots when we defederated with alien.top almost two months ago? Special treatment AKA a favor, yes.

Anyway you are always arguing in bad faith, just like when you were trying to spread the message that Lemmy World is too big and bad for the fediverse. It wasn’t for the fediverse, it was to push people to your (failing) hosting company. And you are still pushing that same narrative and play dumb when confronted.

Be transparent he says.

How about no?

Or went with the “just go to lemmy.world” approach, got burned because it was struggling to deal with the influx of people and thought “Aw, Lemmy sucks”.

How many times have I personally explained to you that it was the ddos not the influx of people. Every time you find some way to bash on LW and then you come ask for favors?

Yeah, understandable. On Lemmy World we defederate with those kind of instances because we know most of our users don’t want that stuff.

Luckily the next version of Lemmy is around the corner and then you should be able to block those instances yourself.

You can disable bot accounts in your settings so at least those don’t show up in your feed.

Ok just want to make it clear that we never suspected Hexbear to be involved. This started before we defederated with them.

He is not simping, it’s his instance so ofcourse he is giving his POV

It’s one of the reasons why we set the default to ‘all’ instead of ‘local’ on LW

Which we did at LW. They started spamming some communities with this and we defederated.

Lemmy World defederated as soon as we became aware of this instance.

It is created by @[email protected] who said this was something requested by many but we really didn’t see the advantage of it.

We do not make up for 50% of the active users. Also we have plenty of moderators and admins, reports get handled pretty fast. It’s up to the community moderators first but if it takes too long one of the admins will step in.

And we will never close registrations.
