"If you're from this area" MFs when my Australian ass shows up:
Saw this and was struck by how close the outline looks to a contiguous US map.
Russia: Is imperialist settler-colonial regime that conquered and settled while genociding much of native siberian, kamchatka populations etc.
Dessalines: If you criticise Russia you are an imperial colonialist.
The devs should be invisible if they want their project to succeed like a California wildfire. This hurts Lemmy's donations.
Not necessarily a bad thing. There are multiple interoperable “threadiverse” platforms already. I like Lemmy currently but I’d happily switch to an alternative, and financially support them, if like the UX and the devs are less toxic.
i'm really eying piefed as the future of this communication strategy
The current Piefed instances unfortunately don't seem to show what they federate with. I personally would not join an instance which federates with lemmy .ml anymore, for example. But yeah there sure are a lot of options popping up which is great.
I've been looking at Piefed and Mbin long-term. Don't think I'm ready to make the change yet, but when Federation is more reliable, I'll probably make the move to one of them.
I'm a huge fan of piefed.
once it has app support and an instance as clearly aligned with my politics as slrpnk.net i'll probably move over
Interstellar is almost there but it still doesn't have notifications unfortunately. It's also limited to I'm pretty sure only one instance at the moment.
It looks to me like it supports multiple. In fact, it has a default to anonymous kbin.earth setting that I don't think that you can remove even if you add accounts on other instances.
You actually can remove the guest kbin.earth account, you just have to add a different account and switch to it first.
Ahh, you're right, thanks. I'd tried creating another account, and just assumed that deleting the active one would work and then switch me to another extant account. Doesn't display a message or anything, just doesn't let you do the deletion.
But if you switch first, it does work.
The irony that most tankies are in the bubble.
They what they are doing. I don't know or understand why but they can't be that delulu IMHO
Weird how they didn't ban that meme with the map showing Crimea as Ukrainian
lmao, okay goodbye mainstream LGBTQ political power.
The devs are the biggest problem with lemmy. Sure, there's hexbear and whatever else, but the devs need to be better than most. A sane person sees that kind of post, and they leave before they even give it a chance.
Sadly this is very true. And I literally said as much to nutomic directly last week. In the thread on world soliciting donations. Not even a reply. Not serious developers. Just kids with a few coding skills. Who are going to do what they want to do, because they want to. And if you have a problem with that then that's your problem. Not theirs.
As of this writing, I don't think that any of the viable Threadiverse Lemmy alternatives (mbin, piefed) support native mobile clients via the API.

Hmm. Apparently that's not correct. Interstellar can handle both mbin and piefed. It's not in F-Droid, though.
Interstellar shows up in fdroid when I search for it. So I'm not 100% I may have added another repository.
I say fdroid. I was mistaken. I'm currently using droidify with the Izzy on android repository enabled.
Yeah, I needed to do that to get it installed, trying it out right now.
It feels more-responsive then Eternity, and the dev appears to be more active, but I did notice that it doesn't appear to yet support monospaced blockquotes
just colorizes them differently at the moment. Probably some other stuff. Definitely usable, though.
EDIT: Note that I've only used it on a lemmy instance, not mbin or piefed, so I can't speak as to the support there.
Currently I'm using Voyager. No one client has everything I want yet but it's pretty close Interstellar looks wise would be a close second. It works pretty Snappy but it doesn't have user tagging and a few other things that I like.
I'm glad to be finally able to share Interstellar which supports Piefed as well as Lemmy and mbin. still work in progress though.
I'm from Japan. Does this mean I can say “Fuck colonists, fuck tankies!”?
Please do. And don’t forget that most “Tankie” regimes,
Russia, China etc. have large settler colonial histories, especially Russia.
[person from Poland, the Baltics, or Ukraine speaks up]
"No not you"
the Baltics
Funny you mention that...from the directors cut:
LMAO
Seriously. If they think the US people on Lemmy are anti-Russian (which, they are, in an abstract geopolitical-college-seminar type of way), they have literally never interacted with people of a certain generation from one of the former Soviet republics.
To them it is personal. They will punch you.
Pay up, Lemmy, adminning is hard work!
looks at map
Greenland and Canada's Arctic Archipelago are presumably going to have to be pulling some double shifts on commenting.

Welcome to MoG!

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!
What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
