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

Sorry... What?

About attention whoring, isn't that the point of this community to discuss about drama?
Also surprised by the aggressivity
The only thing that we can confirm, is that you are the account you are currently posting on.
It is very easy to impersonate someone in the Fediverse.
Taking one alt example to reply.
You are correct, but interestingly enough I noted that most of the instance admins would reach out to me when I create my alt to check if I am actually me.
So it is indeed possible, but there are some light checks.
Also with the amount of posts and comments I made on the feddit.org alt, I would have noticed it early.
I just added a note about the feddit.org alt in my bio to make this more clear.
Bro the fediverse isn't Pokemon you don't have to catch your username on every instance
Unfortunately, with federated moderation being broken and forcing people to have a local account to mod communities, you can end up with a bunch of alts.
Also I use them for different topics as we don't have multi communities.
I actually created this one to follow the "meta" stuff happening everywhere
That's fair I didn't think of it from a moderation standpoint
Yeah, that's one of the reasons. But I have indeed too many alts ha ha
It is worth making accounts on a few instances for things like cross instance moderation, testing, or seeing content that isn't federated out
