This is just a partial list of this POS’s ban and block evasion tactics. Every two to three days, this asshole forces an instance to federate out, wasting their resources, and doesn’t give a shit who has banned or tried to block them. Then a large number from every one of these account is very heavily upvoted. Oh, that isn’t suspicious at all, especially when over 90% of what this fuckwad posts is the laziest kind of repost (just blatantly ripped from .ml in a likely automated way similar to the the account creation likely is since they will make accounts on instances less than a day old).
I am fucking tired of this shitty, bad faith action and this is proof that it is high time that an instance needs the ability to straight up perma ban a username from any instance. I am aware that PieFed has this feature and right now it seems like something so incredibly basic. One person has the power to make all of Lemmy effectively useless, and it needs to stop being that way immediately.
Literally the entire purpose of this community.
It’s been fun to see a lot of the major Lemmy posters show up in this thread. It’s been really eye-opening.
For someone who keeps running around this thread and saying that it’s exactly appropriate for this community, you clearly did read the second rule. It’s almost like lying about someone flinging false accusations and making shit up might violate the rule saying respect other users. Even then, my issue isn’t the rant. My issue is that this is someone who I respect and have seen on Lemmy a lot, who I’ve talked to a lot, who is making shit up, throwing a tantrum and inventing shit about someone else. I don’t care about the actions of this post. I care of the actions of this post when @[email protected] is better than this. This is just fucking disappointing.
Ironically, they’re the biggest hindrance to lemmy growing
How so? Wouldn’t more posts/comments be a good thing for Lemmy?
They’re extremely abusive towards each other. Instead of just blocking users they set up harassment and thought policing communities to screenshot and drama post about each other in a way that makes any normal person delete their account and go back to reddit.
This guy cm0002 for example, what they are doing is totally unhinged, it is really off putting and reeks of desperation. I’m not a tankie, I have differing opinions. Do I need to thought police tankies? No. I get along with everyone because we’re just shit posting online. Then I go and hang out with my family and do things like hiking. But these people literally freak out and spend hundreds of waking hours tracking people, screen shotting them, gathering evidence and in cm0002s case emulates a bot manually reposting. It is fucking crazy. Dude, tankies aren’t even a real thing most people who aren’t terminally online ever heard of.
Not inherently. Activity is certainly important, and some people might just leave if a place seems too slow compared to what they’re used to. But the quality of activity is also important. (If it didn’t, we’d be firing up repost bots and AI tools to generate junk.) In fact, one think many people have said they like about Lemmy instances is that it seems like replies actually mean something here and don’t just get lost in the mix. There’s more of a community.
