Started using lemmy.dbzer0.com as my primary instance. Noticed on the right hand side they have their rules listed.

Is dbzer0 not aware that his instance is CHOCK FULL of tankie shit and porn?

    Did you like tell them? Have you been reporting it?

    I’m not going to dog pile on a specific instance so the rest of my comments are general.

    As of all things rules and intentions are different than reality and actions. You judge an organization and community based on their actions not their intentions.

      This is so important to know, because it matters if this is from willful negligence or simply because no one has brought it up and the instance admin(s) think it’s smooth sailing.

      In addition, I think the fediverse is early enough that it’s totally okay to shop around and jump instances if you don’t like the vibe.

        This,

        And you can delete your account too, that will remove your data from the instance, to not be associated with them.

        A lot of them have rules just for the apparences, but they don’t apply them.

        Its like green washing etc.

        Words =/= Acts

        I’m not talking about db0 though, its an general observation,

        Oh absolutely, I’m not on a crusade against mods or instance hosters, it’s just like, hey, your rules are being FLAGRANTLY broken.

      Hexbear is an extremely well known tankie community, I’m just surprised that dbzer0 federated them when they have a rule against Tankies.
