When you have a network with centralized moderation / censorship like Lemmy or Bluesky, you don’t have a network, you have another fucking Facebook.
yea this is weird actually, even this post is on lemmy.ml
https://lemmy.ml/post/28866410
seems like a bug to me
edit: nvm, this post is being “boosted” by lemmy.world, but comments and upvotes from lemmy.ml will be blocked by infosec, because this is a one-way block not mutual
This only applies to old posts. New post will not be send to lemmy.ml anymore.
they won’t be sent by infosec.pub directly, but other instances may send activities referencing content from infosec.pub, which will lead lemmy.ml to pull it from the source as well.
this includes for example posts and comments in lemmy.world communities, because lemmy.world will announce those to lemmy.ml.
oh yea actually this makes sense, because lemmy.ml does not block infosec
Um… no, this is a new account. The defederation happened a while ago, which is the reason why I chose infosec.pub
https://lemmy.ml/u/error_100_000_100@infosec.pub
I just check https://infosec.pub/instances it says lemmy.ml is defeded
Bug? 🤔
You can still manually query accounts, yes. But that is not what I said.
Why did it get defederated?
I’m not sure and I don’t really care. But I’m assuming its just the admin’s personal dislike of lemmy.ml. Regardless, I chose this instance because of it. I’m sure there are still small number of users acting in good faith on lemmy.ml, but I just don’t wanna deal with their admins’ tankie influence and the higher ratio of trolls on that instance.
Never had a bad interaction with them.
Oh shit, Jerry legit blocked it: https://fedia.io/m/fedia/t/1468012/Fedia-reporting-issues-with-specific-servers-e-g-lemmy-ml-lemmy-one-startrek-website/comment/8379246#entry-comment-8379246
It’s unfortunate IMO. I thought it was just some kind of weird mbin problems causing lemmy.ml not to federate, then I mostly forgot about it. Although that server is not without problems I’m sure, it’s a huge piece of the lemmy world to be missing and it’s a pretty small world to begin with.
Good
I mean, I don’t care if people accidentally waste their time making mean comments that I can’t see, but the problem is if .ml can still the see posts, they can downvote and I wouldn’t be see those downvotes to be able to know if there’s brigading.
accidentally waste their time making mean comments that I can’t see
making comments people don’t see or acknowledge is one of my favorite pastimes
Why do you care about votes?
What makes you think that a defederated instance votes are still captured?
Why do you care about what happens on another instance?
