Rules

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Advocating piracy is one thing, but now banning people for believing in copyright? That's like banning people for following the law. That is banning people for following the law. What gives? And to think a while ago I declared I wouldn't have any reason to not take their bans (or the motives behind them) seriously.

Are we trying to get world governments to ban Lemmy (or, worse, the fediverse)? Love the administrative decisions or hate them, such decisions will drag down the whole fediverse. Typically sites are defederated to protect the sites defederating them from liability. Will this be an example, or does this, out of convenience, not apply? Are we forgetting a large portion of the fediverse's demographics consist of artists trying to make a damn living?

A - That was a mod, not an admin. We didn't do shit.

B - What the hell are you even trying to do, anymore? like genuinely, i have no idea what you're trying to aim for.

edit: Also fuck copyright.

Yeah, I thought I recognised OP from somewhere, and not in a good way.

[–] CraigOhMyEggoAlt@lemmy.wtf -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've never had any of the names described above.

[–] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

I never said you did.

That being said: yes, you did.

A mod banned the individual from a dozen communities?

What the hell are you even trying to do, anymore? like genuinely, i have no idea what you’re trying to aim for.

It's just everyday commentary. I don't see where the confusion is. Everything I've said reflects something that concerns me.

edit: Also fuck copyright.

Using someone's work without their permission is exploitation. People have to spend time out of their day to make something creative, so coattail riding off of them takes away the incentive to make the art, which interferes with the artistic process. The ancient Romans even knew enough to have a concept of copyright. In the very least, people should be giving credit to the artists, as you would when you are gifted something.

It's literally two.

You're going to a drama community to stir up shit. There was nothing to be angry at, here.

We could blabber about this all day; this is the average leftist stance, and i'm not here to convert you. That is our instance's stance, and it will never change.

"Anti-AI troll" appears in more than just those two. That's shorthand for being concerned with copyright.

[–] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I double checked and you are still wrong. The only two communities are !stable_diffusion_witches@lemmy.dbzer0.com and !stable_diffusion_mycology@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

[–] CraigOhMyEggoAlt@lemmy.wtf -3 points 2 days ago

Oh. I read those all as different people. My bad.
