As stated in the title, I went to some posts and comments that I had bookmarked for some media that I was trying to download. This was on my lemmy.world account. Turns out they’re gone. Doing some digging and found out this community was still up but wasn’t visible on lemmy.world. what happend?
Lemmy world is the worst. Anytime I see a trash post that’s where it comes from 9/10.
kbin usually is worse.
So much spam.
They are both bad for different reasons.
Kbin has uncontrolled spam because the administrator, Ernest, likes to go AWOL for months on end and wants to do everything completely by himself. Currently, Kbin.social has been unreachable for 4-5 days - whether that’s because something legitimately broke or Ernest pulled the plug on things we don’t know because he actually hates communicating with people. He could gain so much more goodwill from the community if he just left a one sentence post saying “I am still alive, I am still updating things, be patient.”
Lemmy World sucks because the admins suck, the moderators suck, and the majority of the userbase don’t seem to be interested in creating quality content. Most of the people there are only there because their Reddit app doesn’t work anymore.
I’m here because r/piracy lead me here :)
My first account was actually made on lemmy.world until I saw mentions of this instance. Very grateful to db0!
Let’s agree that it’s the “Both? Both!” meme.
I originally joined up to .world and offered to mod a few communities, cause whatevs I got free time. I saw a fellow mod outright nazi-ing about ( not “saying things I disagree with” but actual nazi fanboy-ing) so asked instance admin if he could be removed as a mod from said community we shared. It was a polite message, and I wasn’t gonna harp or bitch about it either way but I figured if he wasn’t removed I’d just leave (no way that’s not coming to a head sooner or later, yknow?) I was immediately banned from the entire instance without even a message or anything about it. Just outright immediately banned.
Sure, if that’s how hard you’re going to bat for nazis I don’t want to be here anyway. Shrug
A claim like this typically requires evidence.
Wow, that’s a very ruud instance owner.
