Comment on I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.

As far as I can tell, they are providing a valuable, wanted, service. It’s unfortunate.that it is impacting you negatively somehow, but I think people would prefer that they keep it up.
Is what they are doing bothering you, or did you just misunderstand the point of their behaviour, and assumed something malicious was going on?
The “service” has negative value. All it accomplishes is spam, doubling or quadrupling posts, and making every single user of a large instance out to be a tankie. There is also no shot it isn’t just a script or bot being run unless they themselves spend an insane amount of time on ml making the while “boycott” thing horseshit to begin with.
And at this point, random instances are being starved of resources by the account spam (the federation takes disk space and bandwidth).
If people didn’t want it they wouldn’t upvote it. It’s that simple. You don’t get to speak for others.

I have not done this once, please provide receipts on this. I have very specifically been against the admins of .ml and select provable Tankie users of .ml

Well it isn’t, for one, the activity levels on .ml just isn’t that busy. For 2, I don’t personally watch .ml, I just have a hook into the RSS feed and just get a notification on my phone. Takes me <15 seconds to crosspost a post

Hijacking this comment. If you find their service valuable, you should consider using this social media site, it has a lot more content and behavior similar to what cm002 post and do!
