Holy shit, thank you! I use Forkgram on my phone and it has a setting to disable it, but on desktop I couldn’t find a way to do it until I saw your comment. Thanks!

This is so stupid I love that it has a Wikipedia segment about it.

2014 thread refuting user’s murder and manslaughter accusations

Excuse me. What.

This. I’ve seen a lot of obnoxious and/or argumentative comments from them, but one that stuck with me was when my first Lemmy instance had to close when Trump was inaugurated due to safety fears.

The first comment to the announcement post was a hexbear user saying something like “Yeah this is why capitalism doesn’t work, America sucks and it needs to go down” – which I do not disagree with, but the post was the admin sharing genuine fears and talking about the logistics of having to move to another state. The user didn’t even say a “I’m sorry you have to close your instance because of this…”, just straight up getting into politics when it wasn’t the main point of the post.

(I will always miss you, possumpat.io; I hope the admin is safe and thriving!)

Holy shit, the mods made a poll of whether members want the chatbot to be in its own channel or everywhere in the server, they voted “please just keep it in its own channel”, and this guy said, and I quote: “the mob doesn’t get to rule.” Wow.

Also, as usual with these guys, there isn’t a “no integration” option, just “limited” or “free roam”… Not that it matters bc he’d disregard the results of the poll anyway lmao.
