2019?

Being the biggest instance and having defederated with a couple of instances has made us a target.

Hexbear was down too... but I guess the spectre haunting Lemmy is too scary to allow you to imagine any other culprit

Essentially blaming people expressing support for trans people for the right wing culture war focus on trans people is definitely a bit more than just saying you're fine with trans people doing what they want. Stop being so dishonest about what people were pissed at you for. You know it wasn't a "blatantly pro trans comment"

Just to add to the context, here are some of the now removed comments from the log

Tbf Reddit was AGP too, real trutranners don't know what a computer is

YTA tran bad

I find there is a tragic lack of transgendercirclejerk here

Strongly agree. Mastodon is alright and I use it a little, but the twitter-type format never really worked for me. I feel like when I have to follow individual people I usually end up either following no one or being forced to follow people who post things that interest me sometimes but a lot of the time post things that really don't. Following particular topics or threads just seems much more natural to me; I can look at exactly what interests me and nothing more.

Does that really make it totally apolitical though?. Like obviously it's not inherently attached to a wide reaching political ideology, but it still is political in the same way that any free software is kind of political.

Phone bad.

Like they're objectively pretty useful but I find the experience of using one to just kinda suck and I avoid it as much as I can. I'd much much rather use a laptop or ideally my desktop if that's at all possible. No idea how some people manage so much time using their phones
