By spamming it everywhere every chance they can in an effort to try and drive people from Piefed, by making no effort to inquire or outreach to anyone in a neutral way as to why the code is as they (think) it is.
But in comparison to the Lemmy admins. Sure. Do you think they take seriously, and view the opinions of those that are rude to them all across the fediverse?
I mean he's been accused of running a CIA-style op (or compared to).
Weird, I was told to only assume the positives in everything. Shouldn't they be happy to have people looking and spreading the code?
Now I see the issue its they didn't do it in pr or only ask in approved spaces (even though most are on instances rimu has blocked). How could they not want to be neutral after having it start with him completely against them.
I'm not sure what else they would expect when starting by explicitly banning leftists from the space they are currently in.
You think that Rimu would jump onto these instances that lets say are mutually ideological hostile and take notes and believe they're arguing in good faith?
How has he done that outside of his control?
You think every single community that bans leftists (per your definition) is necessarily run or controlled by the CIA?
I'm saying they shouldn't be surprised when no one wants to discuss things with someone who specifically said they don't want anything to do with them. Which also goes back to the language rimu uses when questioned.
Again are you pr for piefed cause you are way to invested in defending it, doing best to distract from the actual points and issues brought up and seemly instantly responding.
Right, and the feeling is mutual. I don't think it really matters how Piefed looked, or what it does - many of those users outright oppose any competing platform on the Fediverse because they believe you should help the Lemmy devs instead of making your own. So what's the end-game here?
He's clearly referring to the people who express what he views as bad faith commentary and attacks on his character from those instances and communities.
You keep replying to me. I reply back. I pretty much reply to everyone if I have something else to say so long as you keep replying to me.
