Thank you for this!
I didn’t know you could get shadowbanned on Lemmy.
I've def had the feeling that I've been shadowbanned from some places, but I don't know if it's something that's done on Lemmy or not.
I never really cared enough to look into it too deeply though.
The problem is that it only takes one person on Lemmy to say something is associated with Russia, and all of Lemmy pounces on it and will just keep saying it over and over. So now that this site has been associated with Russia, you're never going to win your argument--even if you're right. Lemmy's will just make shit up about it from now on.
I know, because someone decided to make up something and said I'm Russian, and that I get paid in "russian bitcoinz," (because I didn't vote for Harris or Trump) and to this day, people still say it. (I'm born, raised, live in USA by the way).
Thank you! (EDIT: No thank you)
EDIT:
Nevermind. MediaBiasFactCheck bot and website aren't scientific at all.
You guys rock. Like always.
Let's doooo it!
Yeah, I grew up on those days, and missed most of the computer revolution simply because my family couldn't afford any of it. I did have a rich friend that dabbled, so I got so see the edges of it, but I didn't get to dive in deep like a lot of people did in those days. I'm making up for it now, though!
Here is an ad for the school in a newspaper from the time period:
Sacrilege! May your data streams be corrupted and your access to shared knowledge be denied!
I'm bound by honor to copy your statement and use it as my own, whenever and wherever I please! :)
Here's what the beauty looked like:
I may have to finally make the switch. I've been using photoshop/illustrator for over 25 years now though...
It's gonna be damn hard to make the switch...
