The original french post that motivated hexbear’s decision : https://jlai.lu/post/11504685
There is already various posts here giving us reasons to defederate them, one of them calling to violence against french :
On jlai.lu :
Dessalines, one of Lemmy main developper is taking part :
Some of hexbear supporter denying being part of an attack without any apologies :
Should we support Lemmy or migrate to another software as Mbin, piefed, sublinks ? Time will tell.
Mbin
- Mbin’s roadmap : https://github.com/orgs/MbinOrg/projects/5
- One instance running Mbin : https://kbin.earth/
Piefed
- Piefed’s roadmap : https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/projects/7800
- Flagship’s instance : https://piefed.social/
- Piefed news : [email protected]
Sublinks
- Sublinks’s roadmap : https://github.com/orgs/sublinks/projects/1/views/6
- Flagship’s instance : https://demo.sublinks.org/
- Sublinks news : [email protected]
What do they expect an admin to do with their user? It’s not our job to treat them like a school children.
Also what’s the progress of sublink? Didn’t heard from it for a while.
Unfortunately it looks like SubLinks is mostly dead. They haven’t made any changes to the code since August
I definitely wouldn’t hold my breath. Piefed is much more promising
I updated my post so you can check their progress :)
If not, then how come an admin can ban a user?
Because they breaching the common rule? Or being a spam account? Being reactionary is usually not a ban-able offence, and we admin isn’t here to control and fine tune how everyone act to a specific way.
I mean, if you or any other admin want to do that, feel free, but i ain’t got time for that, and i trust you adult for solving common conflict yourself.
Altought it is due to a lack of people, i think it also point out the lack of a moderation board with various role to fill.
Several role are missing so our job tend to overlap.
We could do something like this :
In our case, our (modo)admins would delete these as they oversee the whole server.
They called to violence and insulted our members several times in the first thread linked in the OP https://jlai.lu/post/11504685
If Jlailu members had done the same on another instance’s meta community we would have acted on it.
I see where you come from, we don’t monitor everything that our members do, but this was a large scale event with dozens of people taking part and 248 comments.
Then yes, it fall under the rule as brigading. I definitely would ban anyone calling for it.
Glad to see we agree
