Rimu recently started a new rant thread. I copied the response of the person they had targeted and in less than a minute Rimu had deleted the comment.

This is the comment Rimu did not want people being able to see: https://feddit.uk/post/53824748/26875911

This is the thread I shared it on: https://feddit.uk/post/53824747

Wait piefed has a secret shadowban list too?

Did they learn nothing from Tessaract?

    I fucking knew it.

    “You can’t trust those commies who make Lemmy! I know, I‘ll put in secret censorship to protect others from that I think is wrong! I’m the savior of the world!”

    You can feed this pie right up your ass 🖕

    It does have a list of instances it defeds from by default, but quokka isn't on it.

    Piefed did add the ability to 'silence' instances which hides posts from those instances from the All feed, but posts from communities you subscribe to still show up. It's similar to Lemmy's 'hide community' feature. Quokka is on piefed.social's hidden instance list.

    That feature was made to silence Quokk.au. Rimu added it only after he started melting down and having issues with everyone.

    I don't see how people can still use piefed with someone like this in charge. A new red flag pops up every month. It's hard to see them among all the other red flags.

    good news, nobody who like Piefed has to use it. we've gotten PyLova to the point it's running Quokk.au and Anarchist.Nexus, and we've not only removed the censorship and the bias, but we've also improved the UI, made some new themes, and most important of all patched some security vulnerabilities.

    at this point it's better than Piefed in every way.

    Some people still believe @dessalines@lemmy.ml and @nutomic@lemmy.ml are out to get them I guess. It's ironic because every talking point about developer overreach and unilateral decisions applies to piefed more than it does Lemmy. I know it has more features and it feels like Lemmy 1.0 is taking forever, I'm still holding out hope for it and making do with what we have here.

    Rimu is not just instance-beefing, he's so salty he's going against the whole FOSS ethos just to be as petty as possible. PTB.

    Man, I saw a single post from Rimu some months ago and pegged them as a scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds, censorious control freak totalitarian, months ago, blocked em.

    Is this person like... actually important in some way, or do they just... loudly think that about themself?

    They're a piefed dev/contributor or something?

    Rimu rehashing old drama?

    What is the manchild trying to distract from now, did he invade Iran and fuck up or something?

    Yeah, this is PTB.

    You can't just shut down an otherwise on topic comment because you don't like it. I mean, you can, but if it's in this situation you're using your position to block dissent. That's literally what power tripping is.

    I saw the thread without context trying to defend their actions and I just laughed.

    "Boy golly, I'm just so new to this FOSS thing!"

    Like, I still don't really know the details, but this pattern has gotten old.
