      He’s the piefed dev.

      Piefed is a 1 to 1 replacement for lemmy, compatible with other fediverse things.

      I joined a piefed instance specifically to move away from the lemmy devs.

      Now it turns out the piefed dev is a petulant fief lord.

        It’s not like Rimu is helping his situation by making a complete ass of himself as of late.

        I figured it was the Piefed or similar creator given the context. Just wasn’t sure. Part of the reason I switched from lemmy world to Piefed social

          I switched specifically because tankies are pissy about piefed.

          I literally wouldn’t have had any interest if not for the one two punch of the above, plus the cunty moderation antics of Dessalines et. al. on .ml.

            Piefed literally has social credit score lol. The dude in charge is a nanny who thinks the users aren’t wise enough to do their own blocking. There’s been a shit ton of drama surrounding that dork in recent weeks, and all he’s done is dig in.

              Well, the Lemmy devs have stated that their goal isn’t to design a system that scales well and it shows. Part of it is that there may be a future where there are too many new users for a mod team to handle, especially if the barrier for signing up is extremely low.

              I would engage with you on your instance, but i appear to have been banned on .ml

              I highly suspect that you will have a long leash here, and will be allowed to say just about whatever you want.

              Consider that the source of your consternation is that you do not appreciate piefed’s Tit, for .ml’s Tat.

                Uhhh, yeah you were making threats on people’s lives lol

                I highly suspect that you will have a long leash here, and will be allowed to say just about whatever you want.

                Bruh, you yourself just had your leash yanked on .world

                What are you even talking about? Rimu is an authoritarian is the point.

                  I stand by every syllable.

                  But just for funzies, I will take you to task, and get you to explain with precision how “I” would be the source of the death threat, if the Russian Military sent an underperforming troll to the front line?

                  Are you suggesting that I have the power to get the Russian Military to press a troll into service?

                  If a Russian troll gets sent to fight in Ukraine, they would get a personalized drone visit.

                  Those are just facts.

                  Bruh, you yourself just had your leash yanked on .world

                  Yes. And?

                  Here are other “Threats” and “racist” and “hateful” facts that get deleted on .ml:

                  Stalin was actually a very bad man who executed a lot of Russians.

                  The net immigration/defection trend during the Cold War, was people fleeing from the Warsaw Pact, and not to the Warsaw Pact.

                  Your comments here will likely stay up here, while .ml moderation demands that Stalin be venerated, and that Putin’s Cold War revivalist bullshit is just peachy keen.

                  The designation of .ml feels inaccurate. It should be .mS for marxist Stalinist. Capital S for Stalin, and just a little m for Karl, based on the reality of how .ml actually is.

          You’d think a bunch of self proclaimed communists would support someone cloning software for free. Hexbear is such a joke.

            Hexbear was a fork of Lemmy that was merged back into the main build, which sh.it.just.works runs on. You are using their cloned software for free right now. That’s obviously not their issue.

          I love the way sometimes it’s “fuck him and everything he stands for!” and other times “damn straight, I stand with him for the things he stands for!”

            Sometimes the Tankies claim they stand with X because X opposes Y, but then if anybody mentions all the times X stood with Y and all the times X said things they clearly don’t stand for, then they have no response but “you’ve been brainwashed by the media”.
