It just keeps working 😱😱😱

Accounts are cheap!

Same and I’d migrate if I knew a way to transfer my subbed communities

(There’s a way to do this… right?)

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 15 points 3 months ago

Yes you can export/import those as a JSON somewhere in the settings I think

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

exporting your settings does it

Dared create an account on an instance administered by controversial people, to say the least.

Personally, I couldn't care less about the user names. Ad hominems are worthless, even if certain servers have certain tendencies. At the end of the day, only the substance of the argument, and whether it passes critical thought, matters. Information isn't truth. Information is worthless.

While I think the meme’s a bit far, if I see a .ml talking about how great China is, I’m going to just glaze over whatever they’re saying.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Someone had too much Honey.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What were they supposed to have, maple instead? Yeah, I see you over there with your .ca instance. *squints suspiciously*

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 months ago

I’m drunk on maple right now don’t trust me..hiccup.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

While that is a valid point, you will be on the back foot as far as making a point goes due to the actions of other people on your instance.

I dug this account out just to comment. It was one of the biggest instances during the migration, and I am a leftist. Not a tankie though, I made a new account pretty quickly.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The tankies talk all about how they’re against imperialism when the US and Israel do it but apparently it is okay for Russia to invade to Ukraine and for China to invade Taiwan.

[–] RIPandTERROR@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Perhaps it's not okay for US & Israel, Russia, or China to invade other countries and they should all just chill the fuck out for a bit so we can fix our shit.

Takes a hit

[–] nimble@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You've now been banned from .ml

[–] ohellidk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

you have now been freed from .ml!

[–] PagingDoctorLove@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I'm out of the loop, can someone explain the joke?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lemmy.ml has a reputation for really bad takes, and the mods and admins ban people for not supporting the admins' favorite genocides.

[–] PagingDoctorLove@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I see, that makes more sense. Thanks for the explanation!

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] PagingDoctorLove@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I assumed so, since this meme format usually is.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 months ago

I know it should but no idea what. Seems more like just op mad

[–] fuckingkangaroos@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I just skip comments if I see they're from Lemmy.ml.

I hate that instance.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That instance got blocked on my end and unfortunately Vegantheoryclub.org has similar issues.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I haven't actually seen any comments from that instance, I wonder if ee federates with them?

Given how that instance got started, it doesn't surprise me they have some extreme views.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They’re one of the smaller ones at 77 users and they’re federated with lemm.ee.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm guessing they also don't interact all that much outside their instance, too.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

They tend to hang around vegan spaces.

[–] Ascend910@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 3 months ago

oh i'm sure the comments on this post will be real civil

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago
[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago

On the virtue that the username's instance doesn't matter? Sure.

I doubt that is the aim of the meme's take though.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 months ago

I wish you could block out all the ml users from commenting or replying to your stuff when you block the instance.

I also wish more instances defederated from them but maybe the admins are scared it would discourage the developers from continuing the project.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social -2 points 3 months ago

You can block the instance because their mods are dick heads and their users sometimes say things you disagree with, or you can keep trying to splinter Lemmy, one is more productive than the other.
