Rimu published yet another hit piece against the /0 instance and this time posted it in his own instance comms as well. One of his mods jumped in, admitted they don’t know anything about anything, but nevertheless felt confident enough to state their opinion as fact and in the process insult all of us collectively, then stickied his opinion for good measure.
So I decided to reply sarcastically, at which point that mod insulted me and locked the thread, which is apparently a feature in piefed which simply hides/deletes further replies in that thread, but since it’s not a feature in lemmy, it appears to function like a shadow delete.
This is what my last reply would have been.
(Yes I’m being snarky, but that “I’m so mature” bullshit just rubs me the wrong way.)
In my opinion, using mod powers to get the last insult in, is just bastard behaviour.
to be clear i don’t think rikudou is the same person; they were just the admin of lemmings.world who also quit rather ignominiously after talking a big game in that screenshot
This is the only person who stepped up to make a frontend for the fediseer and has seemingly given up on the threadiverse which left the fediseer gui unmaintained :(
And while I can stomach some uses of “degenerates” as it’s moved into generate parlance, this specific use-case by rikudou is particularly problematic to me as it harkens to its original usage.
I really need to find a new fediseer GUI developer. One who’s actually active…
