Yeah, not so nice for just downvoting a post of his though. Fediverse is better off without that kind of toxic behaviour.
Comment on so... dubvee and dubvee tesseract shut down.

Its a shame, it was one of the best clients. And admiral Patrick was very helpful to all admins, too ☹️

Why would you downvote that post though?
sorghum@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
The post was fine, the premise is wrong about the fediverse. That’s why I downvoted and didn’t intact further.
Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
Hm, I see. Fair, to be honest.

What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.

Yeah I remember that in the YPTB room yesterday. Normally I’d be harsh on this stuff but it’s the end of the instance anyway, we’d be wasting our breaths. Also, I was talking about how helpful he was to other admins, idk if he is a PTB in his own spaces :p

Yeah, that’s fair. I only see the interaction put in front of me, what’s been posted, and anything I might catch in certain matrix channels. The only known interaction I had with PTZ directly was a ban and him giving me the finger.

as a dev sure. as an admin he had a recent kerfuffle on news, etc, with bans and involvement in some drama around them.

Guy instance banned a bunch of people simply for speaking up in favor of Luigi, before it got clear how many supporters there were. Admin-wise, some questionable decisions. Still he did a lot of good for Lemmy. Shame to lose him.

oh did not know abt those bans. he got me when I posted intolerance of nazis because I was “dehumanizing” them. but yeah. as a dev good! administration was just too much for him.

Was he not aware of the paradox of tolerance and the Nazi bar parable?

If you’re advocating violence against people you arbitrarily deem nazis it doesn’t make you a good guy and you’re likely breaking plenty of laws regardless of jurisdiction.

Specifically I was talking about how helpful he was to other admins, he made out lives a lot easier. Can’t comment on dubvee moderation
