Ah I think I know what’s going, try https://rammy.site and if that doesn’t work try accessing it through Tor (or brave browser in a Tor connection incognito tab).
Site is up for me, hasn’t gone down even once in the past few weeks.
I’ll try to help as much as I can but I’m in the process of finding a new instance, preferably one that doesn’t federate with rammy or exploding-heads because I know I’ll get plenty of DM harassment otherwise if I don’t due to my defederation campaign.
Trying to do it soon because rammy is unmoderated and I don’t want to be here when anyone worse comes and starts going to war on the instance with any amount of unspeakably horrible abusive material, there are some really disgusting and illegal lemmy instances out there and rammy has none of them blocked.
Though there is hope in the future, since rammy is abandoned eventually its hosting or domain-registration (whichever comes first) will run out and when it does the site will go down and their fun will be over.
In the meantime I’ll focus on spreading the word about rammy.site and making sure people know about this so they’ll never leave their instances abandoned, at least not without turning off registration first.
It’s not drastic considering the circumstances, the instance is unmoderated their admin isn’t available, that’s as good a reason as any to defederate them. The instance also doesn’t have a blocklist, it doesn’t block any instances it’s also on outdated software and being unmoderated that is a recipe for disaster.
I just looked at the instance list and they’re literally federated with burggit.moe so yeah I would definately describe this instance as a timebomb very much worth defederating, there actually aren’t any instances blocked on here on rammy which seems nice until you realize just how many known awful ones there are that are connected and accessible to rammy.
This shouldn’t even be something being debated, the instance is abandoned, people are posting hateful content, and it’s federated to the worst of the worst instances on the fediverse.
This is why I’m encouraging people to defederate from rammy, assholes like this are going to use it as a point to post shit to the rest of the instances. If it’s defederated they’re no better off than they were on exploding-heads and it’ll be harder for them to spread their hatred.
Have not been defederated, they’re not in the blocked section on the instances page.
Alright, will do that instead in the future. In hindsight I probably should’ve because they just came after me when they saw the posts.
Go look at what they’re posting and then come back here.
Lemmy.world defederated EH a while back and now the same people from EH are posting wild on rammy.site, seems like a pretty cut and dry argument for defederation to me, if the admin were here and cleaning these posts and communities up that would be different but he’s not and they’re still here so best to treat is the same as EH because for all intents and purposes it is the same as EH.
Defederation is not censorship. It is refusing to listen to or platform things that you don’t agree with i.e. bigots or nazis. Lemmy.world has defederated exploding heads so it stands to reason that they wouldn’t want to listen to the same assholes spewing the same crap on rammy.site
I’m on the Desktop site.
Still seems like it’s federated to me, I got your reply notification.
They’ll just create more communities, have you seen the community spam on here lately? If they did that fighting against each other do you really think they wouldn’t evade community bans on lemmy.world? Defederation is the only way unless the admin comes back and does a sweeping IP ban of everyone posting shit on here, followed by defederating exploding-heads. I don’t foresee that happening though, admin has been MIA for over a month with no sign of returning and there’s almost no activity here besides me and the assholes from EH.
Oh I’m not threatening you sweetie, I’m just saying that if you continue it’s very likely the admins will ban you for being associated with these people, they may see you as a liability due to the fact that you’re also a participant over on exploding-heads
Can’t deny it, you said it yourself. Also I’m not sharing anything that wasn’t already public knowledge, Federated DMs on Lemmy aren’t secure any instance admins can see them, meaning any one with a PC capable of running docker can view your federated DMs.
More like they’re deliberately and intentionally trying to cause harm to people, they literally have a community dedicated to transphobia calling transgender people groomers.
It’s one thing to disagree with someone, it’s another to make disgusting accusations based on a person’s orientation/identity. They’re literally trying to say that all LGBT people are pedophiles because they disagree. How do you think that is okay?
You won’t if the admins ban you for being associated with these bigots
I don’t know I’m not on lemmy.ml I just noticed this shit in my feed earlier and I made the post to [email protected] warning them to defederate because of the invasion of toxic bigots from exploding-heads
I made this post to spread the warning to the largest instances in hopes of stopping the spread of this plague.
No the aim is to keep Bigots and Nazis out of Lemmy.world by cutting off the instance they’re using to propagate their toxic shit to the rest of the Fediverse. Honestly you sound just as toxic as them, maybe you should go hang out on their instance and not spread your toxicity here.
I don’t know what’s going on with it, I doubt it’ll be around too much longer though, admin abandoned it and it’s probably due to run out of hosting or domain any time now.
