  • I agree the time will come eventually, but right now I would guess a significant majority of our users would prefer to stay federated with LW for the content. Once all the dust has settled, and if LW does decide to stay federated, I think that's the best time to consider having a vote on it. But to be honest, I'm very doubtful a defed vote would succeed in that scenario. And if it goes the other way, then the decision is made for us.

  • We are not escalating, and are only proposing the blockade in the event LW defederates us again based on the whim of one of the admins again. I agree it is a massive waste of energy, but we didn't pick this fight.

  • Please remember that this whole proposal is only for if they decide to defederate from us first. In that case, it would trigger the "blockade" which is (hopefully) a group of instances defederating from lemmy world in protest, en masse, until such time as the issues are resolved. All it is about really, is asking for mutual aid from other instances to ensure Lemmy World can't act with impunity with regard to defederations. It's purely a defensive measure. Does that make more sense?

    Kaplan basically threatened us all with defederation after a "review", because they felt it would be "pointless" to only ban one of our instances (AN). All we want from LW is for them to put it to a community vote, instead of hiding their discussions in Discord servers etc, and leaving it solely in the hands of the current leadership team. Can anyone imagine Mr Kaplan and Jordan Lund doing any amount of self reflection, or coming back with a more moderate and reasonable take?

    As things currently stand, LW is run top-down, with no accountability or transparency around policy decisions, poor (and slow) decision making on important issues, and an almost complete lack of community involvement in the running of the instance. It's basically run like Reddit, but with federation. They also consistently double down on bad admin decisions instead of doing some reflection, and so naturally, we are concerned that after a week or two of seemingly doing nothing, they will announce the end of their "review", decide they did nothing wrong (again), and proceed with the threatened defederation.

  • We are not voting for a preemptive defederation. This whole proposal is only for if they decide to defederate from us first, which they are currently considering.

  • I think you misread the proposal. The proposal is to pledge to boycott (aka defederate from) Lemmy World if (and only if) they decide to defederate one or all of our instances. We aren't planning to defederate from them pre-emptively.

    It's basically a call for unity amongst the middle and smaller sized instances, to ensure there are negative consequences for LW if they go through with it.

  • Until the LW admins do something much more stupid, I strongly vote Nay. If they do, I’m happy to respond accordingly.

  • That's exactly what is proposed. We are not voting for a preemptive defederation. This whole proposal is only for if they decide to defederate from us first. We would love some other instances to commit to the boycott as well, in the event that happens

  • This mod has been the subject of vile, transphobic and otherwise hateful and bigoted ongoing targeted harassment for many months, simply for the sin of moderating communities dedicated to FOSS AI image generation on a few topic. It's descended at this point into bullying and harassment. Just because you've decided to jump on the "fuck AI" bandwagon doesn't give you license to harass others. Fuck off.

    No, he didn't.

  • Ironically the Swastika coming from a second person besides Luminous helps to illustrate that point, where it was not just a single person, even an admin.

    Not really, because they were from another instance.

    Jump

  • Because Luminous both called the admin team Zionists and also placed a Swastika onto an icon of the FHF. It’s like calling someone a “traitor” - it doesn’t have to be true, it can just be a pretext to murder them regardless.

    Just noticed nobody had corrected you on this. It was Deceptichum who placed a Swastika onto an icon of the FHF, not Luminous.

    it’s not merely the death threats levied against the admin team that are problematic, but rather the constant calls for murder shared from both AN and db0 users (as well as ML)

    Constant, really?
