Bluesky managed to go offline practically entirely. I count on you folks to spork the hell out of this.

Well, this user has posted on feddit.uk with a sh.itjust.works account. I would have been able to see it, but you wouldn't have.

To be honest, lemmy.world AND lemmy.ml could go offline I would barely notice it.

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 37 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I think I would mainly notice because my whole feed would be wholesome, supportive, and funny.

[–] gregor@gregtech.eu 1 points 13 hours ago

Lemmy.world is fine, as for lemmy.ml...

I have them both blocked, so yeah, they aren't that important at all.

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 5 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

i can understand blocking .ml, whats wrong with .world though?

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Purely anecdotal but… the 3 stupidest people I’ve ever met online were all from .world - and there seems to be a propensity for deleting comments that go against their world view. Only knowingly interacted with one .ml poster and they were perfectly decent.

Look at this social butterfly who’s interacted with 3 people

Well, I mean, they might’ve been bots I suppose. Perhaps I’m still an asocial caterpillar but don’t know it…

That's a Hell of a claim!

I know, seems wild… To clarify the statement I should have said “interacted with” as opposed to “met”. I’m not on many platforms though - no FB, insta, bebo, friends reunited, the old bird site etc. I used to interact on another site, forget what it was called, maybe Robbit or something like that. I’m on Mastodon but I have a different personality there and don’t use it for posting anyway.

I have a feeling that a few/many/lot of .world users have a very simplistic and binary view of the world where they can’t see that some issues are multifaceted and you can’t just throw out blanket statements. There also seems to be an issue with some people where they don’t/can’t differentiate between opinions versus facts. Opinions are personal whilst facts are (hopefully) empirical.

Rant over.

I guessed you weren't on Facebook or Xitter as they're full of idiots.

Wait until you try sarcasm!

They have "power users" that mod multiples of the largest communities and will delete comments of they disagree with your opinion, citing "civility" or other nonsense, even when you're repeating back exactly what was said to you. So, yeah, abusive moderation.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I'm actually a big fan of the misinformation moderating they're doing on world. It's very Lemmy.ml of them in trying to maintain their political correctness.

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 1 points 4 hours ago

I certainly want spreading misinformation, but I'm glad you're enjoying yourself on world.
