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

I'm tired of having to screen the same shit every time a new instance spins up with morons like this.

I'm glad they're defederated because they were by far the most screened communities I had in my list prior to learning that Connect just has it's own internal server blacklist and I was able to put their instances on that list globally instead of playing whack-a-mole.

That's something I kind of hate about the fediverse is that every time somebody spins up a new instance I have to go play whack-a-mole again with the usual suspects: sports and politics.

Personally, I'm against defederation for political reasons. This feels like a mistake that will serve only to reinforce echo chambers online.

They weren't "defederated for political reasons". What they were doing wasn't good faith political speech. They were trolls who's only purpose was creating chaos. If you're really dedicated to their actions this is the fediverse, you can create an account there and read and participate as much as you want. Every user can decide for themselves if there is anything of any value there. I don't think so so I'll be staying right here.

There's a certain irony to celebrating the admins building a wall between two communities as "freedom".

If a community exists only to cause issues and inflame culture warrior issues (such as anti-woke,) they don't deserve to be given an honest chance.

Honest chances exist for honest people. If they refuse to abide by the common rules of decency, and instead want to treat the place like /b/, we have no obligations to let them be heard.
