this is my favorite post there, deeply unserious person CW: cognitohazard
When was he caught directly manipulating the database?
Thats what they call the purge comment and delete comment option that mods have
If somebody posts something illegal (like CSAM), you don’t want to simply deactivate it and leave it available for ‘review’ in the mod log. You need the ability to ensure it is not only hidden, but completely and totally deleted in memory, on the disk, in the database, on any caches / CDNs, etc.
I honestly figured they had some actual evidence not just 0 understanding of the software
I love how they get huffy about getting chain-banned from 20 communities (that have similar mod staffs) when they’re caught either being chauvinist, racist, or genocidal. Like, a mod’s not allowed to watch you transgress then think “yeah I don’t want you in any community I have purview over”? That shit used to be POINT OF COURSE for larger bbforums that had multiple mods for different parts of the forum.
Also im sure that chain-bans are just lemmy.ml version of a site ban and they are never permanent bans at max i seen 1 month. They are just complaining about losing their treats for a month really
Mods have an option to “remove user content” when community or site banning which removes all the posts of comments but doesn’t create a modlog entry. It is a bug that is being fixed (I think in 0.19.4) ironically a lemmy.world/c/politics mod did it for someone who posted too many Biden bad stories and no one is claiming lemmy.world mods are editing the database
I’m contemplating writing an effort post about the casus bellum for the Feddit user to wage war against .ml, which is a removed comment that was just a link to an Imgur album posted by a repost bot scraped from allthatsinteresting.com, a BuzzFeed clone. But they’re not federated with Hexbear and liberals can’t read, so…
Hint: one of the first paragraphs of the Imgur album claims 10,000 people died in Tianmen square, higher than even the US government’s official figures by 9,100. The entire connotated album is unsourced.
Ah yes the good old “join a social media site created by socialists and then get mad that it has socialists on it” move. Classic.
This is funny. I am subbed to a bunch of .ml comms and frequently see weird anticommunist shit. Just like a week ago or something I saw this thread on linux@lemmy.ml. I don’t remember the specifics but the comments were complaining about how the devs are tankies and support mass murderers like lenin. And went on to equate the devs to some gross people. I did comment but deleted later cause I didn’t want to argue with these annoying people. Shit there was some dumb meme post about tiananmen square and how heckin brave freedumb to post it.
The users on .ml do whine about tankies and whatever. And these other instances want to do the same thing but pretend that .ml is filled with tankies not similar crybabies. Like jesus do they have anything else going on than bravely proclaiming to avoid tankies.
Uncritical support for comrade Dessalines in this most Holy of Holy Wars, against these insufferable, -ass libs.
Send all these motherfuckers back to
