    lmao really all are equal on awful. ban in three replies for ai boosterism, but not for weird harassment or murder-suicide encouragement, which happened to that user after muchhh longer time elsewhere

      post or DM links if I’m missing something. there’s lots of questionable shit in dragonfucker’s post history, but the fedidrama bits are impossible to follow if you don’t read Lemmy (why in fuck would I, all the good posts are local)

        well for one it looks like that wasn’t one off and more of a pattern. i remember this one https://lemmy.world/post/25606000/15124978 and i’ve heard of this one https://lemmy.cafe/post/13433291/9941167 also in modlog you can see that that account was mass-banned from ml subs just five days ago so it’s not some ancient incident

        awful is great and i’m glad that it’s a thing, but there’s entire world beyond it, and to go there, i curate a shitlist (now less intensely than previously). this can tell you to avoid things like any pleroma instance, for example (and if it was up to me, i’d defederate by default from them)

          right right, but we only see these bozos when they show up locally

          mind you there’s been more than one illustrious poster I’ve banned preemptively

          but frankly life is too short in most cases
