This unfolded on “United States | News & Politics@midwest.social”. Owner ‘seahorse’ showing the kind of person they are.
This is not how you run a server.
Edit: link to comment:
Confirmed its real, and now I am blocking that instance. Thanks for the info. There is enough content on lemmy, a few instances can be excluded.
I personally think that’s a bit much to block an entire instance over when just one admin is being mildly annoying. Their comment is basically nothing imo lol. Compare that to the OP of this post whose profile picture is a cartoon pony from a children’s show having an orgasm.
It’s almost like a community made of opinionated nerds loves making fake drama and being whiny bitches in general.
Oh I’ll still see those users on different communities, because blocking the instance only stops their threads and communities from showing on my All sorted list
Added a link to the comment in my post. Thanks for reminding me!
All that link does is try to send an email. You have to put a “!” in front of it: !Politics@midwest.social
Is it possible to fedilink directly to specific threads or even comments, or just communities?
You need something like https://lemmyverse.link/

The server returned a “500 Internal Server Error”.
Great. lol
Interesting, I guess the maintainer didn’t update for 19.5
Yeah it’s definitely real, I came across it in my feed before seeing this post. Guy seems like a real arsehole.
So server admins are how we get the Reddit mod experience

Yep, he is a power-tripping person.
Ironic
I love seeing the conversations where you get your ass handed to you by an account that’s banned in your community. Just chef’s kiss
My ass was neither handed to me nor is the account banned.
You don’t even know which conversations I’m talking about. You know your post history is public right?
Apparently winning an argument against you is a Rule 1 violation.
I don’t know or care since it’s irrelevant to the conversation.
Lmao wait, the conversation about unrestricted ego & abuse of power?
Am I reading the right conversation?
Oh yeah. This guy LOVES his Rule 2 but has his own opinion about what exactly “pro-conservative” and “anti-liberal” really mean. Posts about conservative laws getting passed will get deleted because they’re asshole laws like Florida now bans cities and counties from having their own regulations about heat protections for workers but you won’t see any posts about it there. Somehow a successful Republican agenda is against rule 2. It’s fascism. It’s bad faith. It’s morally repugnant. It’s this guy’s MO.
He’s the only active, human mod at !conservative@lemm.ee and he’s making it an echo chamber.
Stick your head further into the ground, then. I’m here to talk about power tripping mods. We can have this conversation without you.
You literally just locked a thread after getting Your. Ass. Handed. To. You. By bobafuttbucker, AGAIN. It’s there for all of us to see. He dances circles around you old man.
I’m sorry who are you and why do I care?
Welp, just in case I just made !theonion@sh.itjust.works
o7
Sorry to hear, I love the Lotr memes community
Never too late to make your own. Especially if enough people decide this is worth blocking the instance entirely.
Thank god we’re doing things on more than world
Yep, that’s mainly why I hopped to it so fast.
Tell me about it
Indeed, but I have enough communities under my belt to be honest 😅
Fair enough. The Onion community had pretty little traffic to begin with so I think I’ll be fine.
“Can’t even downvote in Ohio”
For those who don’t know what this means, but want to, you can read https://www.distractify.com/p/what-does-ohio-mean-slang and https://www.distractify.com/p/only-in-ohio-tiktok-meme.
TLDR it’s a phrase that people use now similar to “Florida man”.
yeah i have my problems with midwest. i think a succinct way to put it is that instance does not appreciate the federation process.
I’ve never blocked an instance.
If I block an instance, that blocks all users too, right?
Nope
…so was this about his take on the Gaza war? That he thought support for Palestine would lead to a loss of democracy?
No they’re saying that’s what people criticizing the protestors are arguing. I think their take is perfectly acceptable but the power tripping is pretty rough
Yeah, I’d have to look into the context but their edit kinda sours it no matter what.
Yeah, exactly. He’s saying that if you vote for Kamala in order to end the genocide in Gaza and prevent Trump from bombing the West Bank, then you’re letting the fascists win and democracy is dead. He thinks we should all be apathetic towards Palestine and do nothing as a show of “symbolic” support for Gazans.
What does “spits their dummy out” man in this context? Is it just “says dumb shit”?
It’s like a baby throwing a little tantrum, essentially.
So how do i block an instance?
Settings, last tab iirc
Damn it. Don’t wanna lose our !theonion@midwest.social community
Well, if we do…
