Not a fan of it by any means, but it shit down ~11 days ago and no one mentioned it.

Every link to something on the instance redirects to this: https://imgur.com/XpxDJTg

Since lemmy posts are links, every image post is now that image.

The admin (local account on lemm.ee https://lemm.ee/u/hamid@vegantheoryclub.org ) said it was because of the harassment culture on lemmy (https://lemm.ee/post/64686772 ), and blamed sunshine and beaver for doing something? (https://lemm.ee/post/63664605/20610349 -- the post this is in reply to is gone, but the comment is in the local copy of the person's profile.)

Anyone know what happened?

Admin always wanted it to be a small instance for friends, he was pushed into federating by sunshine

What the fuck are you talking about? When did this happen, do you have a link? This is bonkers.

sunshine, who is beaver and several others as well

What others?

I sort of hesitate to feed into made-up-from-whole-cloth Lemmy drama, which this definitely seems to be, but I'm giving you enough benefit of the doubt to at least ask for reasons for why you're saying this stuff.

I've talked to hamid outside of lemmy. I'm just sharing what happened as best as I can recall from a perspective that's not Sunshine's, since she's already all over this thread and she was a factor in him deciding to shut it down.

[-] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 6 points 6 days ago

Why do you think Sunshine and Beaver are the same person?

[-] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I didn't save them so I can't recall specifics, but I've seen receipts. Sorry my info is kinda spotty, since I did ECT my memory isn't the best.

What a perfectly normal and convincing answer lol

They’re not really engaging in good faith here…

[-] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 4 points 6 days ago

I feel silly even asking this, but you didn't by any chance "push" Hamid into federating when he just wanted it to be a non federated server, did you?

You know what, forget I asked. I feel like I already know the answer to that question and toomanypancakes is just riding their own little dialectical go-kart, for their own ineffable reasons.

I don't know what you want from me? Sorry I got treatment for depression? Believe me or don't, I don't really care, but that's why he closed the server if you're curious.

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 6 points 6 days ago

I was under the impression that he passed along the administration to the server to someone else, I guess he kept the keys to the server after all.

The admin I turned it over to ghosted and I still owned the domain.

In most of the world as it should be, the process is:

  • Someone makes accusations against another person
  • Someone else asks why, backing behind the accusations
  • There is a response indicating the "why" because that's a sensible thing to ask

In toomanypancakes-world, apparently, it is:

  • Someone makes accusations against another person
  • How dare you I know I saw receipts but I can't find them right now anyway I'm disabled so it's not fair for you to ask that kind of thing but I'm certain that these outlandish accusations I am making are accurate

I'm not asking you to apologize for seeking treatment. I'm asking you to back up the accusations you made. That's a fair thing to ask you to do, and sidestepping into whining about how I'm oppressing your issues because I am asking for it is bullshit.

Rules

  1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
  2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
  3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.


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
