Fun fact, Rimu takes after George Orwell and keeps lists of "undesirables:"

List of people on Rimu's hit list

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 53 points 5 days ago (13 children)

There are zero hexbear admins on there. I feel ashamed. We have failed. One of the legs of the stankie triad has been broken.

Hexbear is fall.

Millions must post hog

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 38 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Pretty sure that's more because Piefed.social is defederated from Hexbear.net, there are some powerful posters beyond the defed wall Rimu would probably happily add.

The great defed-firewall isn't designed to keep the bears in the cage. It's designed to keep us out of your cage. hexbear-shining

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 33 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Pre-emptively as a last resort

Although to be fair, defederation has been used by Hexbear to protect marginalized comrades from more dangerous instances, so this is both justified and still keeping bigots out.

We call those mosquito net firewalls. Those nasty little things carry nasty diseases we don't want to get transmitted among the community, and also even if they were clean of infectious matter, their nips itch and they annoyingly divebomb our ears all the time at night.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 24 points 5 days ago

Yep, agreed, some instances would just raise the moderator workload incredible levels to stay federated.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 31 points 5 days ago

@rimu@piefed.social add us to your list or your a lib catgirl-hiss

Two years I've been posting communist propaganda straight from Bezos's mouth, what have I been doing wrong that I'm not on the list 😔

I'm not upset, just would've been nice to be recognized

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 29 points 5 days ago

We'll all get into the hall of fame eventually, comrade 🫡

Haha wow, I can't believe I made the list for calling him an asshole that time. I was wondering why there was so much less crap on my feed lately.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 days ago

To be fair, being banned does not mean you do not see it, just that they do not see you.

[–] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml 35 points 5 days ago (1 children)

i feel disappointed in myself, what am i doing im not on the list...

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 33 points 5 days ago (3 children)

It's okay comrade, we'll all get there eventually lol.

In honesty, I think Rimu just scans certain threads and adds up everyone that doesn't support them. If Rimu actually spent time checking everyone's account, way more people would be banned as even comrade @Edie@lemmy.ml is on the list despite being one of the least confrontational people I've seen on the fediverse.

[–] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml 29 points 5 days ago (8 children)

im upping the ante to get there comrade -.-7

Omfg piefed. When you are logged in you can see banned people, when you are not you get a blank page with "not found."

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 30 points 5 days ago

Amazing web design.

[–] iByteABit@lemmy.ml 25 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Doesn't even have a proper 404 view, but yeah "Lemmy's development is too slow"

[–] Goferking0@ttrpg.network 23 points 5 days ago (2 children)

It's easy to go fast when you don't care about anything but new features.

Rimu's secretly just a massive Orwell fan, that's why they are implementing social credit scores, erasing people, etc. it's all one big reference /s

Does anyone have the list of extremely cool and sexy posters?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 30 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I think it's the same list 😎

I'm also deleted from piefed.social but not special enough for the list. I never coordinated with anyone, I just meme what comes naturally!

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 33 points 5 days ago (29 children)

To be fair, there's no evidence that any of us coordinated anything, it's just what Rimu personally believes.

[–] iByteABit@lemmy.ml 28 points 5 days ago (1 children)

acts in an extremely hypocritical and provocative way that naturally raises lots of questions from many people

noo why are they're coordinating attacks against me they need to be banned from everywhere 😭

I wouldn’t assume he believes what he says.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 23 points 5 days ago

I also wouldn't assume that he doesn't believe it, I could believe either outcome equally. Nevertheless, it's how Rimu chose to present it, and how Rimu chose to present it is baseless.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 23 points 5 days ago

We'll all get there one day lol

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 19 points 5 days ago (1 children)

A hall of fame I kind of want to be in. Perhaps I should take up posting.

P.S. I noticed that your image is missing alt text. Something like "Long list of users who allegedly harass Rimu" would probably fit.
