I’m calling for https://lemmy.ml/u/[email protected], the most prolific user of the transgender comm here on lemmy.ml, to be immediately unbanned and nutomic to be removed as admin. It is good and correct to leak the DMs of transphobes.

edit: you can find more info from kristinas post here and beavers post here
edit 2: proof, also beaver was banned from the whole instance modlong
edit 3: For trans people looking for a safer instance, I suggest Hexbear. They have a very active trans user base and are extremely supportive.
Not that I disagree with anything in this post but I would like to point out that Nutomic is, IIRC, the literal creator and dev of Lemmy itself.
afaik dessalines is the creator, nutomic is a co-creator and second largest contributor
Though to be fair, there’s a good chance that your pleas are not heeded here and that the admins do close ranks (I’m hoping some form of correction occurs, becuase it’s pretty obviously a petty and personal ban). Point being, you and this community may want to (if you/they aren’t already) think about what you want to do should they ignore you here.
Also, in the proof you provided … it’s important to note that they banned beaver from the whole instance. You’ll see bans from a whole bunch of communities as well as a general in the modlog: https://lemmy.ml/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=9782557
yeah, i’ll edit that in
It seems a strange distinction to say one person is a creator and another is the co-creator. Kind of by definition, that makes both people co-creators.
I think its in the direction of who owns the github repo, which defines a bit more of a strict hierarchy
Sounds like one person is the creator, and the other is a prominent contributor. I’m just pointing out the oddness of the use of co- on only one side.
They’re a core dev, yes, but not the creator AFAIU, that’s dessalines who started the project. Nutomic joined pretty early though and is a major contributor to the project yes. I think they’ve been happy to counter each other’s behaviour whenever it made sense in the past.
I thought it was Dessalines
He can be the president dude. If you’re a Transphobe little bitch, you deserve what’s coming to you.
edit: assumed this was a different word, gah. Leaving for context.
I’m guessing what you said here, but you should think about if using such words as insults might hurt bystanders.
example of ablest language
like could you see how calling someone a pathetic cripple might make physically handicapped people upset? Kinda similar with insulting someone’s intelligence. Just something to think about.
Nothing is removed for me. I’m guessing your instance bans the word “b1tc h”? Because that’s the only swear. Also fuck censorship
Suppose it does.
You probably shouldn’t evade the filter though, at least not with a spoiler.
We don’t need their software.
https://demo.sublinks.org/
Im all but convinced sublinks is a grift trying to capitalize on the failures of reddit and wants to poach as much of the users from lemmy (especially lemmy.world) as possible. Their reasoning for creating this clone is extremely flimsy, “not enough mod tools” and before submitting any patches or attempts to improve lemmy they want to reinvent the whole system from scratch. Their stated reason for that “they don’t want to learn rust” also is very weird considering that it would be less effort to learn rust (especially if you already have a professional coding background) and submit patches to lemmy.
Instead they reinvent the wheel with the notable difference being that they are using a license that would allow a corporation to monetize the content whereas the lemmy license disallows this for it and any derivatives of it. Which is what I think is the real reason for the rewrite.
Also they have stated that while they will have lemmy compatibility in the beginning they will move away from it later which just sounds like a classic embrace, extend and extinguish move.
Edit: not poach users from lemmy.world but rather move the lemmy.world userbase to its platform where they can monetize it. It’s funny that you already have to basically submit a job application there (complete with resume of you past jobs lol) if you want to be a mod, although probably unrelated.
Yeah, every time I see it come up it just makes me ask “but why yet another platform” I always assumed it was because they didn’t have anyone who could meaningfully contribute in rust - that explanation seems plausible though
That and it seems they’re using the languages and tech stack they use in their day jobs, which also makes sense. Whether that was accurately weighed against the benefits and costs of rewriting from scratch is another question though.
Of course, the elephant in the room is that they likely couldn’t remotely stand to collaborate with hard leftists.
As to the grift take from @[email protected] , I once saw them post about new mod features along with a survey, and having heard that this was a major selling point looked into it all … and as I recall I saw little in the way of any new ideas or promises. Doesn’t mean that they won’t do well on that front. Piefed seem to have done some good things there. But there certainly seems to have been hype there.
I hope Sublinks will come out soon, but it’s not there yet.
https://joinmbin.org/ and https://piefed.social/ are more complete alternatives
