Yup and ironically piefed's greatest fans were claiming the exact opposite. That Lemmy's devs were going to do that and that piefed is saving us from it. What a joke.

I am so tired of these losers like Rimu who can't accept the politics of average people have evolved past them and so they claw at these truly pathetic methods of attempting to silence and manipulate people.

It is disgusting and it underlines how toxic and extreme self proclaimed "moderates" or "centrists" can be.

I am a "radical leftist" but I will never resort to these kinds of underhanded and sad tactics undertaken by someone who is clearly lashing out from a perceived loss of power and status.

I aim to convince people of my points, not blatantingly manipulate and micromanage what people can see so they adopt my world views based on faulty premises.

Shame on you Rimu, you sad, toxic troll living under a bridge.

hmmm

That is only partially true. The Lemmy codebase is largely ideological by omission. A lot of very useful moderation tools are not implemented in Lemmy because the devs disagree with them ideologically. This has been a struggle with them basically from day one and it has enabled a toxic culture to fester on many instances.

Please be specific.

Look up all the discussions the Beehaw admins had with the Lemmy devs.

You gotta point me somewhere here. What comm? Some old thread? The github issues?

It is super easy to find on the lemmy github. Don't be lazy.

You're calling me lazy when you don't post your own sources? You're getting offended by me simple asking "and where did you here this?"

I am not your secretary. Either do your own research or don't 🤷

I'm out of the loop, what this criticisms is about?
