https://defed.xyz No real surprises, but the list pales compared to Lemmygrad’s still, they have 3x as many defeds.
Lmao its good to see the worst instances leave.
Does anyone else find it really, really funny that the only nationality instance to defed from us so far is Canada? I mean, I get why, but I honestly expected the UK one to leave us first.
Which is honestly really surprising to me, given the sorry state of housing in Canada.
It seems like all Canadian online forums/subreddits/whatever are like 90% people who are landlords and/or landlord sympathizers.
It’s really fucking weird when you consider what percentage of the actual population are landlords (especially among the main internet using demographics)
I’m not really surprised, sadly. A lot of their userbase is from /r/onguardforthee, which is small-L and capital-L liberal central. Their only real beef with Reddit is that the Reddit admins are making Reddit increasingly uncivil. They have no ideological problem with mainstream Reddit thought, especially when it comes to their kneejerk defence of capitalism.
That and the large amounts of err, “Ukrainian Patriots” having an influence in Canada. When your deputy prime minister is the granddaughter of a Nazi propagandist it tends to influence things. And her uncle also was a big proponent of the double genocide republishing said nazi propaganda as ‘research’.
Surprised they lasted as long as they did before defederating given that.
Not to dox myself but in my area of Canada seeing Ukrainian flags already was on par with Canadian ones before the war and since its started they probably outnumber them 4 to 1.
Not that I care about the lack of Canadian flags but it is pretty weird when you think about it. Like it’s not like I expect a diaspora to not display any national symbols but this particular diaspora from my experience is largely like 3+ generations in Canada, so youd think lots of the connection is lost.
When your deputy prime minister is the granddaughter of a Nazi propagandist it tends to influence things.
For anyone who might be wondering, it definitely doesn’t end with her grandfather. She has denied that her grandfather was a Nazi and said claims that he was are Russian disinformation (lol). This isn’t even a her being stubborn and refusing to see the facts thing, because it has been proven that she has known this to be true going back at the very least back to the 90s.
Also uh holding this banner
Wrong link, but surprisingly useful, I’ll have to pass it on.
Amazing comment, especially about defederation being the last resort.
Edit: jerboa and infinity are just being broken. I got some DIY HRT thread, saved it, but jerboa decided to not actually save it. Opened up the link in a browser and it’s showing the correct thread.
The weak should fear the strong
Not really the strong should unite with the weak but it doesnt work for this joke
The more I learn about nature the more I realize that concepts like ‘strong’ and ‘weak’ are truly subjective to the environment.
When today’s strong becomes tomorrow’s weak, today’s weak will be tomorrow’s strong, and protect yesterday’s strong, and vice versa. This is the best tool of a social species.
Wow that was a bad way of explaining it but I hope that made sense
Lib LGBT is the community that probably does the whole “LGBT is western decadence” stuff in reverse. If you’re gay and live in the third world, you don’t matter, unless you can be used as tool to make fun of the “backwards savages” in the third world that don’t give LGBT people rights. Despite my country legalising LGBT rights a decade before any of these western countries
No real surprises, but the list pales compared to Lemmygrad’s still, they have 3x as many defeds.
A lot of that is because they use a block list while we use an allow list, so a lot of instances haven’t defederated with us bc we haven’t federated with them in the first place.
Users can nominate them. If it’s controversial, it goes up for discussion
I think thats still a bit undecided. Thought we trust our admins judgement and they do at least ask us first.
“Admins you can trust”, a concept of something like “politicians you can trust”. A concept completely and utterly inconcievable for a westerner.
I love we have admins who we can trust.
I’m new from blahaj lemmy, wanted to ask is there usually any community discussion/voting prior to defederation?
Team fuck lemmy.world
USA propaganda flooding makes me want to block the 20k people that keep spewing hateful bullshit.
As a former Lemmur/Liftoff user: This is why I am now using Connect for lemmy app… It has “blocking” (hiding) of instances. The whole reddification and US centered brainwashing from lemny.“world” just got too invasive.
Kyiv Post and Euiromaidanpress sure sound like impartial sources that do not have any interest in supporting one side of the war to the point where outright lying becomes acceptable, surely.
