Content jacking and top posting other people’s content is really bad for Lemmy. It’s also just being a dick to other people making content on the platform.

  • feed is spammy
  • divides conversation
  • chills engagement
  • makes Lemmy less friendly to posters

This pattern is very common on lemmy, and needs to stop.

This is often used to attack or force migrate conversations from a instance someone doesn’t like to another instance they do like. It’s offensive by its very nature.

If you want to make a better community, great, do it but not at the expense of other Lemmy posters.

        I don’t target random individuals, this is about the problem with the admins of .ml. I cross-post to reduce the influence of .ml comms to make it an easier decision for instances admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate, is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms

        Some highlights from the link:

        "Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

        “See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

        .ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558

        CW: Original transphobic Comment from Nutomic

        And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.

            Well it’s had a noticeable effect, .ml traffic is way down since when I started 5 months ago, .ml memes has gone from ranking 14th to near 30th

            .world does not have a censorship issue, I can confidently say after being heavily in the modlog for months now. I don’t see .world admins in the modlog micromanaging everything to push harmful propaganda.

            I encourage everyone who sees this go-to lemmy.world/modlog and put dessalines or davel in the “mod” box (one of the only instance that doesn’t have this disabled btw) and see for yourself.

                Prove it. I can, and have proved it to the point I have an entire megathread and there’s a thriving comm on it at !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

                “Stalker behavior” implies stalking specific people, I’m not stalking anyone.

                  As a victim of yours, i can say it feels a lot like stalking. Not to mention your avatar, which is directly aimed at me because i dared to complain about you reposting everything i post to !crows@lemmy.ml, within minutes, with the goal to reduce any interaction i might be getting.

                    @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world gave me this stock photo.

                    And you seem to have a habit of taking things way too personally, like everyone is out to get you. You’ve even accused jet, who was somewhat on your side as “attacking you”

                    I don’t track individual users, I just use the freely available .ml RSS feed, I forget about you until the next time you pop in my notifications like just now lol

                  Prove you’re stalking the instance to pull content or that world is pushing propaganda?

                  At least make a bot account to do it so you aren’t as obviously stalking for content.
