"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
Welcome to MoG!

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!
What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether it be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users, as it handwaves their extremism.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.
Brigading/Trolling — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from maliciously voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned. Good-faith and honest communication is an exception.
Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

Tangential, but what's the go-to mobile app for Piefed? I've long made an account, but I just log into Lemmy still because when I am at my PC, I have better things to do than laugh at tankies, and on mobile, there's a button on my device that brings me to Lemmy. I'm not sure what shiny new button to replace it with, and realistically the sooner I can stop using tools created by fascists in socialist clothing, the better.
I'm currently using Jerboa for Lemmy, though I am not married to any of its features.
I've been using Summit, it's pretty nice. I recommend you just try a bunch of them and see what you like.
I've tried blorp a few times, it was OK but honestly the browser experience is pretty good.
Blorp dev here. Is there any specific feature/improvement I could add that would bring Blorp from ok to great?
It has been several months, I just assumed whatever quirks were from piefed being relatively new, I'll give it another go. So far I've noticed I can't see the notes I have for users, like the tags feature but apparently different from the built in notes, also I can see emoji reactions but I can't create them or click to add to the count.
Pretty sure Voyager supports most or all piefed features.
I'm not able to create an account due to a community being Piefed and not being a supported feature. Are you using Voyager on iOS or Android?
I’m on iOS but I’m using Lemmy. I just know from the Voyager community that it supports Piefed. Maybe you need to create the account on the web version first though.
