I find it highly interesting that I brought my own receipts at least:-).

No, back when I used Lemmy I mostly used All. But then I did not call that "my" frontpage, unless I switched to Subscribed. Perhaps there is a language issue here, but the personal form of "my" implies a customization aspect, not the same shared set of posts that everyone sees across all of Lemmy (unless they block content, which OP seems not to).

Or at least it could imply that, which explains why the person you responded to might have thought that. There is a logical basis for doing so, I am saying.

I don't believe that someone that continues to intentionally spread disinformation in this community would be allowed to remain.

Don’t harass mods or brigade comms. Don’t word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.

There are several rules that imply that misinformation/disinformation is considered poor form.

You missed the point. The word "My" implies the Subscribed feed, rather than "All". At least that is the most straightforward interpretation, which explains why the person you responded to thought that.

Supporting Lemmy won't do much to help the Threadiverse thrive imho. Instead I suggest supporting PieFed, for many uh... reasons. One being that it is written in Python (which many developers are already familiar with, rather than the extremely niche Rust that even experienced C++ coders are loathe to have to learn) and thus has a ton of features already that Lemmy lacks (see https://join.piefed.social/features/), plus it's only continuing to add still yet more, on a monthly basis even.

By comparison, Lemmy requests sit for literally years and years, while a lot of the donations, rather than going to support further code development, instead goes to support the, let's just say "highly controversial" instance lemmy.ml.

Lemmy won't "die", but it's never going to hit mainstream. Visit r/RedditAlternatives in any given post to find out why (hint: tankies, which Westerners do not like, probably bc tankie instances are full of content calling for the literal murder of Westerners as well as the actual fall of those civilizations - for some reason though these anti-Western sentiments seems to drive people who live there away? Go figure!🤪🙃).

PieFed on the other hand might just have a chance, and the dev team is super friendly and highly responsive. At least check it out.

Also, post content! More than most other things you could do, that would help a lot.

This ignores how money donated supposedly to support development of the Lemmy codebase goes instead towards moderation of their personal instance. Unless you want to donate to Nutomic specifically (which has other issues), there is no way to donate specifically to develop Lemmy code.

So ironically the answer to your question lies in the lines that are lacking, but that would have been there otherwise.

Bottom line is that it's their code and they can do as they please. Meanwhile, I switched to PieFed. I wish you good luck with that extremely slow-paced development of Lemmy, but I am not putting any hope into it myself anymore.

bc OP indicated that, saying "my frontpage" (emphasis added).

In the modlog. Here is yours.

YDI, it looks to me.

If you don't want an abortion, then don't get one - but why stand in the way of someone else who wants one? Or in this case, why not let those people in that community have their fun, without you continually raining on their parade?

Your "contributions" to mass downvote every post in that community (as you seem to freely admit doing?) were apparently unwelcomed, so the mod went to all that effort to detect you and act to defend the people that you abused. The Threadiverse needs MOAR content, not less, and they acted to make their environment welcoming to posters, at the expense of trolls who wish that they would simply cease to exist... yet don't bother to block the community themselves. If not troll, then why behave like troll? Well, now you know.

Also, you lied. You were corrected that "my frontpage" (emphasis my own) is NOT the same thing as the "All" feed. Yet that wording remains in your post for new people to continue to be swayed to your side of the issue, until they realize your misinformation. Well, now you know. (Edit: you also seemed to attempt a deliberate spread of misinformation by stating how you did not post or comment, while ignoring your mass contributions across many existing posts by other people.) (Such an act might get you banned from THIS community too, btw, especially if there are multiple infractions. Well, now you know.)

Rules exist for everybody, not only ever in your favor. Learn these and you will enjoy your experience much moar better-er-est. You truly do have the power to make yourself happier, rather than merely complain about not getting your way. Well, now you know 🥴.

Within context, it's usually clear what is meant, e.g. the singular discord that is associated with a Reddit sub/community.

MS bought several good products (then killed them), does that count?
