I know the “provocateur” you’re talking about, and I’ve never seen them go to troll others outside their own space. I also haven’t seen many similar profiles either.
Comment on The highlighted division and factions of Lemmy.
SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 days agoYeah ‘my honor has been slighted and so i must now escalate’ is quite common.
Character assassinations too.
But yesterday we had 2 fellow dbzer0 folks do this very trolling/ baiting. Which they also planned in the matrix channel. I think I instantly made clear I strongly disliked that. So did the community. And there was an apology luckily.
But we both know there’s one provocateur there. Who I personally always have had lovely chats with. But someone who likes to go looking for trouble.
And thats not an isolated case. Many similar profiles I’ve seen.

There’s a lot of .ml users that make accounts on db0 because so many instances blocked .ml and their users.
db0 also doesn’t do much to stop their instance from being abused like this.

You have repeatedly made this claim but still haven’t given any proof after a few weeks.
Please demonstrate the users you believe are alts of .ml and other instances. Any and all of them.

Any examples?

I don’t think we’ll get any, she’s been asked before as hasn’t given any evidence before.

They’ve previously claimed other users are alts of me, which is especially funny considering I only use accounts with the same name for the sake of transparency.

Libs claim tankies make sockpuppets in our instance, tankies claim libs make sockpuppets in our instance. It’s just inability to comprehend the anarchist perspectives

Ive never seen non anarchists capable of understanding the anarchist perspective. Its like theres some mental block preventing it.
And not just on Lemmy. Just generally, unimaginable idea for people

And then they never back it up.

I can say I have, used to see a lot of propaganda from my country being constantly crossposted from ml and hexbear, since dbzero (among others) tolerates them, it helps them bypass the faulty defederation/blocking system that lemmy has so it kept appearing in my feed and I had to see accounts dedicated to defend the propaganda.
Until I moved to Piefed and was able to actually block them (also this instance defederated them).
Tribalism isn't always bad, sometimes it's needed to help take care of others by cutting off bad instances or instances that enable them. It's not black and white.

What instances block .ml that I’d be upset to miss?
