Lemmy Admins Are Full Of Shit. They Are Obsessed With Having Power, Silencing Users, Banning Users, And Want To Use A Karma System Like Reddit To Restrict Your Ability To Use Lemmy.
I know I’m being dramatic here, but something just hasn’t been sitting well with me ever since I started using Lemmy.
There’s just this feeling I get here that the admins have a fucking agenda. And I could be wrong. But I hate bullshiters who won’t tell it like it is.
More people need to call admins out on their bullshit. It’s getting fucking ridiculous.
And I’m tired of the fucking arrogant attitude that some how running a server and being an admin makes you important in some way as if you’re going to be the next elon musk or something. Get over yourselves.
It really feels that there is an ulterior motive based on what I see in the matrix chats.
Admins are not being transparent about there motives.
I’m on pretty much all of the lemmy matrix chats, and all they talk about is restricting the users experience, banning, defederating, purging accounts when they ban them so the user doesn’t see why they were banned, and any everything that will put them in a position of power.
I also feel like they have accounts on all the other instances and post other bullshit trying to push their agenda and make these changes seem like a good idea.
Admins, quit fucking bullshitting like you’re trying not to be like reddit. Yall seem to wet your panties at the idea of basically being in complete and total control of everything and Ban who ever you want based on your political ideologies.
I’m sure their are some who are not like this.
Im sick of this morally superior attiitude and sense that your beliefs and actions are of greater virtue then everyone else. Yall are smugly moralistic and intolerant of different opinions and its fucking obvious.
Stop being fucking deceitful and tell the goddamn truth.
Please explain to everyone your intentions.
This is just one of many. I attached the rest here. I apologize for any duplicates.

IMO this belongs somewhere else, like !lemmy@lemmy.ml or something.
I have a few questions:
- What is your agenda?
- What change(s) are you expecting by showing us this?
- What takeaways am I expected to pull from those screenshots?
- Can anyone join the matrix chat? If so, how can we be assured the participants are actually admins?
Also, as always, you are free to join any instance you like, or create your own.
Criticising how other admins choose to run their instance, maintained by themselves & volunteers with their own time, for their own reasons out of their own goodwill, does not make sense when Lemmy is FOSS software, and the fediverse is open.
Okay… which Lemmy admins? The ones from which Lemmy instance? Are you talking on general grounds, on specific admins, or did you just assume that there are global admins here? The very point of the platform is that, if you don’t like how some admins run an instance (or even the people themselves!), you can hop into another instance.
As far as I know, Lemmy (as the software running in those servers) doesn’t even track karma, only score for each piece of content. Yeah, some phone applications show a “karma”, but they’re simply adding the score of your content, this is not from the platform itself.
If this system popped up, it would be something that the developers did. Not “the admins”. And AFAIK they don’t plan to, but correct me if I’m wrong.
Your screenshots show some “terrinefirex2” user proposing minimum karma to post. Is that user even an admin? If yes, of which instance?
I see a lot of chat but nothing else.
If lemmy works now, use it. If the devs/admins implement weird shit, stop using it. Life ain’t that complicated.
I personally moved from lemmy.world because I don’t like their defederation policy. I also block all beehaw communities because I don’t think they’re acting in the interest of the lemmyverse. You don’t have to agree with any of that, but that’s the beauty of self-agency. Join whatver instance you want, block whatever you want, hell, use lemmy or kbin only if you agree with its policies.
So much anger, your post is hard to read. What instances’ admins are you talking about, and what happened?
I’ve rarely seen an admin, only occasionally in sticky announcement type posts, talking about stuff like software updates and such.
Start your own instance. Then you won’t have to worry about other admins.
