Yup it’s a proxy to circumvent defederation, they’re just posting shit there because at least when they started it was federated with many others. They’ll probably just flee elsewhere but this is why it’s very important to make sure you have people to manage the instance in case you aren’t able to anymore.
make sure to block burggit.moe as well they’re known for CSAM material, also lemmy.comfysnug.place for the same reasons.
I’ll try to help as much as I can but I’m in the process of finding a new instance, preferably one that doesn’t federate with rammy or exploding-heads because I know I’ll get plenty of DM harassment otherwise if I don’t due to my defederation campaign.
Trying to do it soon because rammy is unmoderated and I don’t want to be here when anyone worse comes and starts going to war on the instance with any amount of unspeakably horrible abusive material, there are some really disgusting and illegal lemmy instances out there and rammy has none of them blocked.
Though there is hope in the future, since rammy is abandoned eventually its hosting or domain-registration (whichever comes first) will run out and when it does the site will go down and their fun will be over.
In the meantime I’ll focus on spreading the word about rammy.site and making sure people know about this so they’ll never leave their instances abandoned, at least not without turning off registration first.
This is why I’m encouraging people to defederate from rammy, assholes like this are going to use it as a point to post shit to the rest of the instances. If it’s defederated they’re no better off than they were on exploding-heads and it’ll be harder for them to spread their hatred.
Lemmy.world defederated EH a while back and now the same people from EH are posting wild on rammy.site, seems like a pretty cut and dry argument for defederation to me, if the admin were here and cleaning these posts and communities up that would be different but he’s not and they’re still here so best to treat is the same as EH because for all intents and purposes it is the same as EH.
Defederation is not censorship. It is refusing to listen to or platform things that you don’t agree with i.e. bigots or nazis. Lemmy.world has defederated exploding heads so it stands to reason that they wouldn’t want to listen to the same assholes spewing the same crap on rammy.site
I’m on the Desktop site.
Still seems like it’s federated to me, I got your reply notification.
They’ll just create more communities, have you seen the community spam on here lately? If they did that fighting against each other do you really think they wouldn’t evade community bans on lemmy.world? Defederation is the only way unless the admin comes back and does a sweeping IP ban of everyone posting shit on here, followed by defederating exploding-heads. I don’t foresee that happening though, admin has been MIA for over a month with no sign of returning and there’s almost no activity here besides me and the assholes from EH.
Oh I’m not threatening you sweetie, I’m just saying that if you continue it’s very likely the admins will ban you for being associated with these people, they may see you as a liability due to the fact that you’re also a participant over on exploding-heads
Can’t deny it, you said it yourself.
Also I’m not sharing anything that wasn’t already public knowledge, Federated DMs on Lemmy aren’t secure any instance admins can see them, meaning any one with a PC capable of running docker can view your federated DMs.
More like they’re deliberately and intentionally trying to cause harm to people, they literally have a community dedicated to transphobia calling transgender people groomers.
It’s one thing to disagree with someone, it’s another to make disgusting accusations based on a person’s orientation/identity. They’re literally trying to say that all LGBT people are pedophiles because they disagree. How do you think that is okay?
You won’t if the admins ban you for being associated with these bigots
I don’t know I’m not on lemmy.ml I just noticed this shit in my feed earlier and I made the post to !main@lemmy.blahaj.zone warning them to defederate because of the invasion of toxic bigots from exploding-heads
I made this post to spread the warning to the largest instances in hopes of stopping the spread of this plague.
No the aim is to keep Bigots and Nazis out of Lemmy.world by cutting off the instance they’re using to propagate their toxic shit to the rest of the Fediverse. Honestly you sound just as toxic as them, maybe you should go hang out on their instance and not spread your toxicity here.
Yeah I hope he can salvage the instance whenever he gets back, if he ever gets back. He’ll probably have to wipe it clean and get a new domain honestly. This is why if setting up a Lemmy instance it’s important that you always get a team of people to work together as admins, that way there’s always someone there to take care of the problem and you don’t end up in situations like this.
Tell me about it, I just logged on the other day expecting to go post in !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone and I’m greeted with transphobic and climate denial posts on the front page. Really didn’t know what the hell was going on.
It’s not his instance though, he’s not an admin he can’t do anything about it.
You’ll no longer be able to retrieve content from the de-federated instance and they’ll no longer be able to communicate with yours.
Glad I could help
Having a team of admins is another good solution to this problem since if one disappears the others can still do the work while they are gone.
