Rules

  1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
  2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
  3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Its a shame because they're prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don't understand the point of targeting a person you don't like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don't like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)

Blahaj is probably blocked in your country, mine and another friend has the same issue. Feddit blocks large swathes of Asia and maybe some other parts of the world sadly, but the admin told me they'll fix it... Soon.

That's not it. The people who banned me are instance admins.

I meant the fact about media being broken, that would only happen if those instances are blocked/blocking you, banning cant do that at all. Otherwise I have no clue.

Bruh. The users are from feddit instance but the community they're posting on is world instance.

And I can see the media when I open it in a browser without logging in.

Bruh. The users are from feddit instance but the community they're posting on is world instance.

It doesn't work like that, even if the post is on another instance the media itself is hosted on the users' instance. For example if a feddit.org user posted to a dbzer0 community I wouldn't be able to see it, since the image itself is hosted on feddit.org.

There's a fix for this called image proxying, which a few instances like Lemmy.zip for example enable, but Lemmy.world doesn't do this.

And I can see the media when I open it in a browser without logging in.

Then I have no idea what's going on, sorry.

Damn this fediverse thing is complicated.

Then I have no idea what's going on, sorry.

Yeah it's thumbnail getting cached to world instance. Silly me.

And none of this matters yet because I'm still permanently banned from multiple communities without those mods telling me which comments or posts of mine are responsible for those bans. 🤷‍♂️
