Editing to delete all of this. I am getting real threats again, and I am not willing to have a complete mental collapse over fucking Lemmy for a 2nd time. Fuck this place. And especially fuck all of the transpose assholes bent on making my life hell. I am deleting my accounts permanently, but will leave the content up. Don’t worry, you won’t need to kill or doxx me, I intend to take care of the former myself.

    The community isn’t configured to screen it out, pretty much by design.

    There’s not a great technical solution for screening out this kind of malicious conduct

      by design

      fair point but it’s not mainly a software problem. there’s no reason that e.g. an article on vpn use in response to the UK online safety act shouldn’t be posted/reposted to technology@instance.uk, privacy@instance.ml, worldnews@instance.elsewhere etc

      what is disappointing about this cm0002 stuff is what i’ve seen of the general community response to the high effort attempt to flood the timeline with low effort posts. the supportive comments and upvotes suggest that people like it, and that is baffling to me

        There’s a naked skepticism towards any kind of moderation. And after a string of sites full of ugly administrators and sadistic moderators, who can blame them?
