There’s that weird place discussed by the other instance’s admin here:
https://lemy.lol/post/17093789
It’s a small nitherlandian instance that automated posting of christian testimonies (30k+, basically a youtube crawler by keywords, updated hourly) in one community and others are filled with conspiralogical content. Maybe they had their place somewhere before?
Haven’t seen a direct bigotry at a quick glance (closing my eyes on muslims finding christian Jesus-posts), but it looks like spreading conspiracies and serving as an ad for a cult. Is that against our rules? They sometime showed in my feed too. And they are an outright spam entity having 30k posts for like 50 users.
I think that’s either a sectarian indocrination or someone being very ill in the head.
I vouch for defederating them and maybe contacting them if they need personal support.
It’s exactly what some of youtubers would do a write up about a year after.
Can you explain what’ Agora is?
https://sh.itjust.works/c/agora
It’s the voting community of this instance. Users (or admins) post discussions on rule/policy changes like your post here, they’re discussed for a while, then an admin posts a vote thread for sh.itjust.works users to vote whether we should accept the change. Your post should go there.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !agora@sh.itjust.works
https://sh.itjust.works/c/agora
Basically it’s a place for the community to discuss instance-wide changes like defederation or rule changes, and is named after the forum in ancient Greece. The process is:
This community is for general discussion about the instance, but most non-urgent actions need to go through the Agora first.
Thanks, I’d look into that.
