Why am I cross-posting .ml content?
I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some active niche comms.
Some highlights from the link:
.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: lemmy.world/post/18236068
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev lemmy.world/post/27352415
"Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev lemmy.world/post/30580167
“See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin lemmy.world/post/30673342
“NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev lemmy.world/post/31595035
General negative sentiment to other instances who haven’t “seen the way” yet ~davel, .ml admin lemmy.world/post/27426510
And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.
I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda
On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like “Lemmy? Isn’t that the place with a bunch of tankies?” Or “Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left”. The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

I learned from 02 that .ml and lemmy developers are shitbag authoritarians who cheer russia and nk! now seein bunches of straight rt propaganda let stay on .ml news subreddits cinched it and im about to block the whole instance my self so im glad there cross posting good posts out of there. ive also seen you twice now claim this user downvotes without a word but twice now ive seen them reply to you

Well, as I said in another comment below, I didn’t start with just blocking them. They don’t just do it to me, they do it to anyone who disagrees with their behavior. I’ve seen them be snarky to others, I’ve seen them just downvote and not say anything. They do both.
My problem isn’t reposts from ML, that’s their go-to response but they repost everything from everywhere. My problem is their dozens of accounts. Why can’t they just use one account so other users like me can just block them? Their evading people’s blocks under the guise of “promoting instances”, even though I guarantee the vast majority of users don’t even know the post is from cm0002, let alone pay enough attention to read what instance the cm0002 account is on.

I dont know about all that Ill have to see one of there responses about it for myself but you should check there last comment to you, theyre givin you a list of there accounts
CorrectAlias@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
You can find their list of accounts by searching. They didn’t need to provide it, and last time they did something like that, they ended up using more accounts than they claimed.
