The instances being used are

  • lemmy.doesnotexist.club
  • chinese.lol

Here is an example of the coordinated downvoting https://hackertalks.com/post/8692093

Of course its a controversial user who got someone angry enough to automated downvoting @DonaldJMusk@lemmy.today

But you can see every post they make gets 53ish downvotes from these two instances, plus some organic ones after a few hours.

A individual user airing their personal biases and manipulating lemmy isn't good for the community, regardless of how you feel about their target. This is a really bad thing (tm)

Has anyone told you today that you're fucking awesome? Cause they should. You lot are one of the best admin teams I've ever seen. Thanks for what you do.

It won't reach them, since this instance (which this community is on) is not federated. I believe other instance admins tried to reach out but didn't receive a reply.

I mean, it doesn't look like that from the post history...

But it seems like that's a troll who made an innocous "science" community and people are mass down voting posts because they don't want that person to be in charge of a serious community.

Personally I blocked that user a long time ago tho

Yeah, 100% not a fan of this, but they couldn't have picked a better target

Previously in this thread or one like it, DonaldJMusk made a comment claiming an account called PapaSkwat was the culprit. There are now 2 new PapaSkwat accounts on lemmings.world and lemmy.today.

I propose that DonaldJMusk IS PapaSkwat begging for attention.

# Rules

1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama
