Yes, because, those same people have no problem with, or express racism/biggotry/sexisms, usually

Very big claim about a very big group of users. People don’t like .Ml because their admins are pro-totalitarian shills who instance ban anyone who deviates from their chosen opinions- and that’s a broadly experienced phenomenon.

But, welcome to the fediverse. If that’s what you like then you can hang there all day and no one will stop you. Users that don’t like the culture block the instance and move on.

It really doesn’t have much to do with socialism or communism directly.

What is it you’re bitching about exactly? People not wanting to deal with .ml?

I believe incoming federation is working correctly at this time

This is pointless and will accomplish nothing

They also won’t let you say bad words

Anyone remember that time they had a bot that would auto-censor peoples comments?

Honestly the entire community there is made of wet tissue paper

Paid shills, the lot of em

See we tried that too. Problem is the Taliban soaks up all the aid then uses the resources imbalance to reinforce their authority, which is then also blamed on the US.

Muslim women aren't cattle

Can’t speak in public

Can’t be seen in public

Can’t drive

Can’t read

Can’t receive an education

Can’t divorce their ~~husband~~ owner.

This shows an inherent misunderstanding of why the repressive rules were created

The same reason Christians cook up asinine bullshit, because religious is deeply poisonous to a society. Fuck your reasons.

I’m convinced at least one of the .Ml admins are literally just paid shills for totalitarian regimes (Davel). Yogthos has the same link spam with no substance argumentation.

What’s interesting and telling is these guys’ rhetoric isn’t actually focused on particular issues, but exclusively the actions of states and how Russia, China, and North Korea are all pinnacles of morality and success, while US bad.

The more of their shit you read the more obvious it becomes

And they run the instance

Idk. Doesn’t bode well for Lemmy long term, they make the entire software stink

Never update on a Friday

Honestly yes but it’s reality. Republicans led states-I live in one-need to hurt. And they need to know it’s their own fucking fault.

Is “Balkanizing” a better term?

Like, honestly. What a joke of an admin.

This comment was in response to someone expressing regret about joining .ml if I recall correctly

Edit: I'm convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.

Update: so, the responses this far are almost universally that these bots have been blocked by users of the community. There is also a general disinterest in defederating, which is on brand.

You guys wanna do a poll or something or?

I’d like to lead my thoughts with a quote from the admins regarding bots within lemm.ee:

“Bots must not be responsible for the majority of content in any community”

There are two entire instances that immediately spring to mind, zerobytes.monster’s b0t user, and lemmit.online. Their content is quite literally 90% bot content with 0 engagement, and they spam constantly.

Now here at lemm.ee we generally don’t defend from stuff, that’s actually why I prefer this instance. Yes, you can block the bot users and that solves the problem, but hear me out:

These bots ruin the experience on Lemmy for new users. They spam so many posts, attempting to block them from a mobile app will usually crash the app. If you’re a new user coming to Lemm.ee sorting by all, you see tons and tons of empty posts.

Zerobytes is particularly egregious because it doesn’t even repost actual content, just thousands and thousands of links to Reddit posts. It’s a spam instance, period, and I feel strongly about this.

Lemmit.online isn’t quite as bad, but it’s an entire instance dedicated to spam reposting everything from Reddit. All the posts have zero engagement, and the comment value is gone so everything decent gets buried.

Yes there are ways around this on an individual user level, but then you’re creating a context where there’s even less engagement in the vast majority of “new” posts.

Anyway, thems my thoughts. Repost bots are stupid, one that drive traffic to Reddit are even worse. Thoughts?

For whatever reason when I attempt to login on firefox or chrome from my iPhone 11, I get the infinite spinning circle. Anyone else experienced this?

Are we just stuck with browsers for the time being? I mean it works but fuck I miss Apollo already.
