I just got a ban for “encouraging violence”. Someone asked “what will you do to celebrate when he dies?” Someone else started talking about how they have a fantasy about getting the death note and how they’d put that to use. I chimed in with my silly fantasy of using a seance to end politicians’ careers by getting them possessed by the ghost of GG Allin, and enjoying the mayhem that would ensue.
So, anyway, right after that, I found out that all the people who were so transgressive to have actually liked that comment of mine can, as of a couple days ago, expect punishment as well. How draconian.
And so that was that. No sense in being lorded over on the internet by the same people who run HOAs. It’ll be fun watching Reddit flush itself down the toilet from over here, I expect.
I just joined a little while ago, there are blocklists here?
Also if you dont mind me asking, can you switch instances without creating a new account?
I use Jerboa as my app and in its UI you select the 3 dots icon and select “Block”, it then prompts if you want to block the instance or user who made the post.
As for switching instances, not at this time. Its a feature thats been requested, but is complicated to implement (stay tuned). On that topic, as stated above, there is no vote total, so other than moving your saved posts there is no reason to be sentimental about your account. Just abandon it and make one on an instance with admins you agree with.
