Playing the world’s smallest violin in lieu of the admin listing of my least favorite lemmy instance. I probably didn’t have anything to do with it, but lying smearing dipshits have a way of garnering hostility towards themselves. Party time!

This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

Any social networks that have non-censored participants are. Usually, China's presence in social networks outside of its borders are for propaganda purposes.

Interesting. This and other actions seem to hint that they got themselves into the crosshairs of legal law enforcement. You reap what you sow. I suggest that people don't ignore potential issues with an instance, because it does spill over in unexpected ways. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FFdbbcj4Ao

Yeah, no, wouldn't touch that from a longstick, specially from the political slant it's coming from. Wikipedia itself already has enough problems, Ibis is just asking to be a misinformation hub.

The biggest problem with "federation" is the control given to bullshit admins in some of the biggest and how big into hiding their problems they are. One of the biggest instances has shoved two of their admins under the rug, without openly acknowledging why they did it or the drama there clearly is behind it, giving the impression that the problems those admins were creating have been addressed on one side and on the other just trying to dismiss it as "no big deal, they are just taking time off".

So keep in mind joining some of those instances is just joining a good paint job. Sometimes, the rust breaks through, sometimes the rusted pieces get removed, but the people painting over the rust are still there.

It matters because when communities crowd around large instances, those admins have ultimate control over participation within them. And while easy to bypass, it will still affect the reputation your comment history would have represented.

To fight disinformation, you first have to know what disinformation is, and the people being activists don't really care about how much of a hypocrite they are acting as or on what vague presumptions they are or aren't acting on. My suggestion, do what Cambridge Analytica did and has continued to exist under Emerdata and competitors, but make the data collected and the inferred relations visible to all so that people can see their surrounding and other people's surroundings and get a notion of how and why they might be getting affected by them. Instead, we have people arguing that keeping functionality already visible to admins, and easily subject to manipulation, but hidden to the rest of the users, like upvotes and downvotes, should be kept hidden in social networks supposedly intended to be more transparent. Not even going to bring up some of the people leading those networks. I have little hope.

Israeli neozionist troll factory attempts have never really shied away from the public, with the most notable example being Act.IL, but that doesn't make them harmless. Giving your identity away like this is the same as giving away your identity to Scientologists, expect a serious degree of gaslighting and bullshit to be headed the way of your personal and professional life.

And I do mean serious, because with extremists and radicals getting the reigns of government thanks to Netanyahu, foreign intervention having been normalized to such an excessive degree, and countries letting them get away with it so freely, expect the requirements to get labeled as part of a "problem group" to become significantly easier to achieve. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mossad#Europe
