Blocking instances for having open registration is some of the weirder shit I have heard recently.
Edit: now that we have a bot problem I'm now against open registration and federating with instances with open registration lol
Instances have different purposes and for beehaw, maintaining community standards is more important to them then wider federation, they also explicitly said it was a bandwidth issue for their mod team, that as things settle and tools get better for modding within Lemmy itself theyโll reassess. I donโt find that particulary unusual but Iโm also a Mastadon user and thatโs very common over there
You won't like this then https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/post/59078 (I don't either)
2 questions.
-
Fmhy.ml is an entirely separate instance from Lemmy.ml right? Lil confused cuz those are the only ones I've seen ending in ml
-
What instance do we have blocked?
Eta: lemmygrad is the one blocked instance here, personally not gonna miss em.
- Yes.
- Yeah, Lemmygrad is the only one right now for obvious reasons.
Not anymore, apparently
I find this hard to navigate and use, but this should be able to show which instances block fmhy: https://lemmymap.feddit.de/
You can see what instances FMHY blocks by clickling the "instances" link at the bottom of the page (or just here: https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/instances)
Hmm, I wonder what lemmygrad did to deserve the ban here? I see they are a pretty hardcore Marxist instance, but curious if it's just an ideology thingy with the admins here or if they did something to piss them off? It doesn't appear to be mutual lemmygrad shares this instance, and they have a TON of others banned lol
If you check posts and comments here you will understand why they were blocked
it's not that they're hardcore marxists but that they are tankies, you can find a lot of discussions about this out there
Ideologically consistent Marxists, even tankies, wouldn't support the capitalist imperialism of modern Russia.
are they Marxist-Leninists (MLs)? like flagging Stalin etc and Communist Party stuff?
i'm a Marxist anarchist and i'm just wondering if fmhy is a good server for my social circle. banning Marxists is not a good look (upon first reaction)
I mean, you can go look at lemmygrad. I did when deciding which server to make an account on and found a bunch of people posting in support of current day not communist at all Russia. That goes beyond Marxism-Leninism into just supporting a neoliberal imperialist regime because it's not the American neoliberal imperialist regime.
oo dam CCP propaganda etc. ya that's not commie shit. FMHY is fine for me.
