I joined ml because the creators of Lemmy made it and I’m too lazy to switch ¯_(ツ)_/¯

DarkThoughts,

They also made Lemmygrad.

I don’t think they did but feel free to prove me wrong.

DarkThoughts,

It's not really my job to take care of your media competency and I don't really care whether you believe it or not but it is pretty well known that the Lemmy devs are Tankies, which you can easily see on the Lemmy Github page when you look at the main contributors like Dessalines or Nutomic.

ArcaneSlime,

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy_(social_network)

In particular:

Lemmy was created by the user Dessalines…

…Lemmy’s co-creator Dessalines…

en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Lemmygrad

In particular:

Founder : Dessalines

Key people: Dessalines, Farmer Heck, CriticalResist, Forte and others

Of note:

Lemmygrad was created by dessalines and Farmer Heck.

Lemmygrad was the second Lemmy instance created, after lemmy.ml.

Hope that helped!

Ty it does

habitualcynic,

Same, I didn’t know lemmy.ml had a reputation when I was new

It doesn’t have a reputation aside from people calling everyone tankies getting banned and somehow blaming it on ml.

DarkThoughts,

I'm not banned anywhere at this point.

PhlubbaDubba,

Yeah if I had one gripe with fediverse it’s that you can’t migrate what instance you’re attached to, I’m fine with .ee at the moment but if it ever went sideways I wouldn’t want to lose all my user history just to switch instances.

mlg,
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

so called lemmy.world freethinkers when lemmy.ml users criticize their chosen “progressive” party for being shills

DarkThoughts,

I'm not even on Lemmy but I guess that's hard to grasp for US third party voters.

spujb,

woah that’s a lot of straw you put into that man

… holy shit i just checked there’s actually no flesh at all in him? FUCK FUCK now he’s on fire. this is a fucking atrocity he’s literally being consumed by the flames of investigation who could have guessed this would happen. 😰😰😰

Called it at the time. Once world defederated from grad, I said that the same people would find a new instance to designate as the “tankie instance” to whine about until it got removed for not being neoliberal enough.

Here we are. Wonder what the next instance is gonna be.

archomrade,

I will single handedly pull midwest.social down with me.

Pan_Ziemniak,

Is this only bc i have repeatedly called you out for discouraging voting and both-sidesing?

I dont see enough midwest.social content anywhere to justifying calling it out as anything in larticular in the first place.

archomrade,

It’s because I get accused of being a tankie a lot, that’s all

spujb,

sorry about that i misunderstood the point you were making to a degree. still don’t agree per se but the debate on this is beyond me. deleted my comments, u have my apologies 👍

Ensign_Crab,

u have my apologies 👍

Considering you went on to start badmouthing me to others, apology not accepted.

spujb,

u bet lol :)

DarkThoughts,

I really don't know what made you think I'm a lemmy.world user? Lemmy.ml and Lemmygrad are literally owned by the same Tankies that also made Lemmy and a short glimpse into their worldnews community could've really told you how infested it is with Tankies and their agenda.

Ensign_Crab,

I just had a look at the eeeevil taaaankie worldnews community.

I can see why centrists hate it so much. There’s so much opposition to Netanyahu’s genocide.

    Ensign_Crab,

    .ml is already the third “tankie instance” that neoliberals can’t stand because they hate everything to their left and only their left. They will find a fourth.

    Ensign_Crab,

    Thank you for policing my tone instead of addressing my point. I expected nothing better.

    GBU_28,

    Woah, I’m super interested in leftist theory. I think the only viable future for america is to shift to the left.

    I’m not interested in gargling Russia’s balls

    YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH,

    But Putin, Assad, and Xi are all leftist comrades. Let me go get some links for you…

    Oh no. Oh no. Holy shit. I regret to inform you they are all right wing authoritarians. Maybe gargling the balls of the rivals of the US because they were not the US was a bad idea.

    spujb,

    no lol ensign_crab decided you were a neoliberal so you have to do that now /s

    Ensign_Crab,

    I didn’t respond to them at all.

    spujb,

    you were making blanket statements that users not interested in participating in ml instances are all neoliberal/hate leftist thought.

    they defended themselves.

    i backed up their defense with sarcasm.

    Ensign_Crab,

    Considering they could just block instances they don’t want to see instead of karening about it until world defederates from another instance, yeah.

    I see way more whining about tankies than actual tankie content.

    spujb,

    i don’t have a horse in this race since my admin has blocked ml et al from the start.

    so yeah i agree? but don’t brigading and harrassment exist?. that’s what i often see complaints about. i, like you, wouldn’t mind just tankie content. it’s the stuff that comes along with it that gets into the gritty and annoying, by my understanding.

    e: fucked up the formatting sorry

    Ensign_Crab,

    so yeah i agree? but don’t brigading and harrassment exist?

    Haven’t seen any brigading, and the only harassment I’ve encountered has been from centrists who don’t like my opposition to genocide.

    spujb,

    kk, truce bc i don’t have enough information to call either you or those who’ve said they’d experienced these things a liar.

    rbesfe,

    ml is nowhere near as bad as grad.

    ptz,
    @ptz@dubvee.org avatar

    True, but Lemmygrad-lite is still more than I wanna deal with.

    Flax_vert,

    More grad than you want to deal with

    TheFrirish, (edited )

    I’m seeing more and more bullshit from the users in that instance these last few days. It’s a shame some good communities are there and some good users are also there. I’m just blocking on a per community and user basis I don’t think they’re worth a total block just yet

    PhlubbaDubba,

    grad is literally the mask off edition of ml, that’s what it was created to be

    spujb,

    shockingly deep and original analysis, this

    muse,
    @muse@fedia.io avatar

    And accurate!

    spujb,

    me when the product created by Actor has extreme similarities to other product created by Actor: 😮😧😦
