I have started a new community on db0 called [email protected] . This is in response to the recent drama surrounding feddit’s Zionism problem.

          Nazi bar is certainly a new one. I honestly don’t even know what we’ve done to deserve the accusation, I think we’re being confused with .org here.

          I don’t mind if people want nothing to do with us, but I’d appreciate it if it was for stuff we did. Like, I don’t think I can credibly be called a Zionist. Someone once nuked their whole instance because I pushed back on the whole criticising Israel = antisemitism thing!

            Hi, sorry that wasn’t so much a “You’re a nazi bar instance” as it was a “I like that dbzer0 doesn’t tolerate them” if that makes sense. But yes your name is a bit confusing as well!

              “I trust the admin here and don’t know about the admin there” is honestly fair. I can see where you’re coming from now, it was just a bit ambiguous.

              But yes your name is a bit confusing as well!

              Technically, we came first, so it’s the Jerries that are the copycats! (We technically got it from feddit.de, but I didn’t choose the name so my hands are clean)

          I don’t know anything about .uk, but it has the same name as .org which isn’t a good look if they’re different.

          What I do know is that dbzero has policies I agree with. As an Irish anarchist I would rather use it over an instance that may be forced to follow British laws.

          [email protected] stands against zionists.

          If people have direct evidence about the mods being genocide supporters then we would look into removing them.

          I always read about how the beauty of the fediverse is that if you don’t like an instance and communiry you can move. It magically disappear when it is about palestine.

            The beauty of the fediverse is also to be able to interact with communities from different instances, to avoid recreate community on every instance, and fragment the small activity there is on a topic.

            At the moment, on the “buy european / buy from EU” topic, there are

            That topic isn’t that active in the first place. There are a few posts a day. Moderation is okay. There doesn’t seem to be a need to create yet another community.

            That’s a point I addressed 11 months ago already: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/39614799

            Note that there are cases when new communities need to emerge due to power tripping mods. But here, the feddit.uk mods and admins have been good, no such issue to be reported.

            In another comment, Graine this about feddit.org and feddit.uk

            I don’t know anything about .uk, but it has the same name as .org which isn’t a good look if they’re different.

            As most of the people already know, lemmy.ml and lemmy.world are quite different.

            So yeah, if you want to create another community, it’s of course your right, but expect the few people who have been keeping the most active community alive for a year to question your choice.

              I only talked about my personal reason i didn’t encourage anybody to do the same as me.

              The beauty of lemmy is that you can block what you don’t like if you think this new community is useless you can simply block it

              Db0 has proven to be a real ally to Palestinians and their struggle for liberation from settler colonialism and zionism. I know for sure that saying is there any non german products alternstive will not be considered xenophobia

                That’s definitely true for dbzer0, however I’m a bit surprised that you are using LW based on their history on the question:

                  If there was full portability I would switch but it is not possible to transfer all posts of my communities has with all the upvotes and comments. I blocked worldnews because of what you mentionned and my political community is on piefed.

                  Feddit.org mods are even worst than Jordan. At lease Jordan never accused me of being an antisemite
