lemmy.ml and dbzer0 are silenced on piefed.social, which makes their communities hard to find.

But if you go to their url directly you can join them like normal:

https://piefed.social/c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

There is no hardcoded instance block list. There are some instances that are defederated from initially when an instance is first created but the instance admin is told about this when it happens and they can change it by clicking around in the admin area.

Very interesting and lots of detail on the 5 year plans. Thanks!

FYI every post you make is tagged as NSFW

This must have been going on for decades. Ridiculous, humans.

Yup. If there’s anywhere that can absorb the umm influx of 5000 stir-crazy men all at once, it’s Pattaya. Plus every bar girl from Bangkok will be there to lend a hand - it’s only a couple of hours drive away.

War is not rational. Do not expect it to make sense.

Too slow, already fixed ;-)

There’s a lot of differences to get used to, for sure.

“People’s Democracy” is one - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People’s_democracy_(Marxism–Leninism)

Thanks, I’ll see what can be done about that!

Yes, good goal.

However if Lemmy is flooded with posts made by a small handful of people it just looks like another bot farm. Try to post like a human - space things out a bit. If your Lemmy client app doesn’t support post scheduling, consider using a different app.

efficient!

Definitely not.

It varies depending on the instance but generally bots get banned.

PieFed includes RSS posting functionality out of the box, btw.

Mine posted a hangman’s noose on Facebook with reference to my old place of work. Basically calling for the lynching of everyone inside and all people like us.

There was a lot of other stuff besides but that was when I knew for sure the person I used to know was gone.

The Asian Trump is in a prison cell in The Hague. Hopefully they manage to convict him before USA Trump finishes his rugpull of the ICC.

I did not, it seemed complicated and rabbit-hole-y.

In the end I just added an Anubis-like feature into PieFed. It works great.

I used fail2ban as an anti-scraper strategy for a few months. It helped with the really basic scrapers that only use one or a few IP addresses.

But then they adapted and started using hundreds or thousands of different IP addresses, each one only making a couple of requests. fail2ban became counter-productive as it slowed my server down - the log files it was monitoring became massive under high load and it needs to scan the log files often to check if an IP has been seen before.

I’m not saying don’t try it, I’m saying it’s only effective in some situations.
