You most definitely can brigade regardless of federation. Brigading refers to organised mass posting by a group of people.
Now, whether or not what's happening is brigading is another matter. Just having users post there isn't brigading, there has to be some organisation of some sort, like a post that effectively (intentionally or not) calls people to arms to another post/comment.
Brigading is an offense made up by the most annoying people on Reddit that everyone has to pretend to take very seriously
"oh my god the bolsheviks are brigading the winter palace!"
"oh my god the workers are brigading outside the work place. they have picket signs!"
"I dropped my french fries in the parking lot and now the seagulls are brigading my french fries"
seagulls would never wait for you to drop them, let's be real
the ones round here make you drop them
direct action (divebombing innocent citizens) gets the goods (chips)
Seagulls have more praxis than me 😿
I got banned from my local subreddit for brigading a post that was on the front page. Like, I live here fuckface.
By that definition, we brigade all posts on our site and everywhere else, because we have a carefully cultivated culture of organised mass posting everywhere we see. If other Lemmy users aren't posting with every fibre of their being, that sounds like theeeeir fault.
Posting everywhere individually isn't a problem, it's making a post about some other post then everyone from that second post going over to the first - in particular with some sort of call to arms in the second post.
If it truly is organised, then that is the definition of brigading.
Fair enough. As we banned the first behaviour weeks ago, I guess we never brigade anything.
