Lemmy.ml is still focused on FOSS and Privacy, Lemmygrad.ml is focused on Marxism-Leninism. As such, there are plenty of non-MLs on Lemmy.ml, including Anarchist communities, while this is banned on Lemmygrad.ml.
Very different instances, I wouldn’t call Lemmygrad.ml “mask off” Lemmy.ml.
Except lemmygrad users are realizing we all blocked their instance and are becoming more active in lemmy.ml to try and evade this, and so yeah, .ml is getting more and more like Lemmygrad
Can’t wait for this to become a systemic issue with Lemmy. Why does everything have to be ruined by tankies and conservatives? They know that nobody wants to talk to them, but they will evade and disrespect the rules just to make other people miserable.
What a sad hobby.
It’s not a hobby, they’re paid by the CCP/Kremlin.
No they do it for free. These aren’t paid assets they’re angsty disaffected teens.
Some are useful idiots, the core is paid shills. I’d be surprised if they’re not also starting to use LLMs.
If they don’t get talking points directly from a trollfarm, someone influential over there watches a lot of Russian propaganda.
On the other hand, they do love yelling at libs to stop supporting the Gaza genocide, so I like them until they also start bitching about fighting a fascist invasion.
Pick your goddamn lane
They want to amplify the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza because it increases the probability Trump gets elected, which would be a huge win for the Kremlin.
I’d guess there’s backroom deal making with Iran as well given the political dynamics there.
I’ve not been on here long enough to know what this is about, anyone care to explain?
The ml stands for Marxist Leninist. Basically, it means the admins of an instance ending in ml has been some revolting politics.
I still can’t stop associating ml with machine learning first 😅
