lmao, the WeDistribute Admin has their Facebook profile linked in their bio. #fediblock
@Alex 🤨you must be looking at the wrong bio....either way, this has got to be the weakest reason for fediblock I've ever seen.
@BeAware The admin "damon" has a threads.net link in their bio where they are far more active. They also harass people who talk bad about for-profit microblogging services like Threads and Bluesky. If that's what we can expect from WD's admins, I am done. They've had really poor reporting anyway.
@Alex 🤨which admins are you discussing?
Every instance involved here has like 3 users at most.
Nobody came to your mentions to criticize who YOU block. However, making calls for Fediblock with such weak reasons WILL get people to respond.
@BeAware That's fine, I am saying that one of the Admins ("damon") of WeDistribute came into my mentions, called me "gross", and challenged me to gamble with him because I criticized a corporation. I am blocking the entire instance because they have a toxic admin. I am already familiar with their organization and their poor quality reporting. If you don't think my call isn't a good one, you can ignore it, this hashtag sees like 2 posts a week, you can filter it the signal from the noise I bet.
@Alex @BeAware I've been off the fediverse for months and came back and one of the first things I see is wedistribute on #fediblock (again).
This is great advertising material for them, because they are getting their name well known in the fediverse. I dont know how many instances are actively blocking them, though.
@FrenzyBiscuit@login.ready.art @Alex@vran.as @BeAware@social.beaware.live To be honest I've never heard of Wedistribute before... I'm tempted to now look them up and see what they done wrong but if they are using it to advertise themselves (being controversial) then I think I will stick out of it even know know I could #Fediblock them
@sam@bikersgo.social @FrenzyBiscuit@login.ready.art @Alex@vran.as @BeAware@social.beaware.live WeDistribute is just one of the best information site about the Fediverse and the Open Web. 🤷♂️
@sam @FrenzyBiscuit @Alex the dude is overdramatic. They're one of the best journalist type sites that report on Fedi.
@BeAware And for the record, if the admin of any instance finds their way into my mentions trying to get me to gamble with them, the whole instance can go in the trash as far as I am concerned.
I'm a single-user instance. I can defederate whoever I please. I might as well say something as I go, since this is a huge red flag from an admin.
