We recently received a message from a concerned Rammy user regarding their instance not having an active admin team.
We have made attempts to contact the Rammy admins, which other instance admins have tried as well, to determine their current status. Due to their admins being absent and their unmoderated content growing in numbers, we will defederate from Rammy. If and when this situation changes, we will be happy to reevaluate our approach. It should be noted that any instances that have abandoned admin teams will be defederated.
It’s the same people from exploding heads that are in these threads. They circumvent the defederation by taking over another instance.
Who are those guys? They posted a thread on my instance trying to get people over to exploding heads… They don’t seem to have all their horses in the stable, if you know what I mean.
Nazis. And while bot the sharpest pencil in the box, they’ll keep coming.
And defederation is necessary to stop more recruitment/indoctrination of the lowest common denominator, who are very susceptible to appeals to emotional reasoning and propoganda techniques.
I’m fresh to lemmy so know very little in relation. But put that way makes more sense. Group of known trolls who move one to another to degrade and break the network.
Isn’t it possible to enable an automod feature for keywords or something across lemmy? I would image that would help.
Not across instances every instance has to define those themselves.
We have an automod bot that is being developed by @[email protected] that would take care of a lot of these issues though.
Hi there, what do the symbols before and after your username mean? I’m in Jerboa. I see silhouettes of orange and pink shields?
Moderator and Admin badges
I love how 2 people downvoted you for that answer! Haha what the hell?..
It’s like they see the admin badge and reactionary downvote.
Well I know at least one of them is downvoting almost everything I post. I PM’d if they wanted to talk about it :D
Probably a butthurt toxic user from a defederated instance…
