So, for clarification, I was named in the feud but was never actually in the actual feud and am an observer, and can absolutely prove I was offline 100% of the time (deleted Lemmy comments linger, so it’s not like I am erasing any involvement). I just happened to get namedropped as collateral damage (on another occasion, so did the Ask Lemmy mod Candyman337 simply for keeping Leni around, and Candyman337 wasn’t in the feud either, and they are welcome to testify too). As an observer, this only made me want to observe it more though.

The whole thing was mentioned on Reddit. Leni was asked at one point by a .world admin if she (the admin) could ask questions in her server which is visible on her profile (I kind of wish she could have asked mine back when it would have been useful to reveal who I am despite the dangers like she had hence her old avatar, but whatever). That admin got a lazy streak due to how complicated things got before the Blahaj admins were given the offer starting in the replies of another so-called exposé (a recurring theme is these exposés are false and can be proven false, e.g. Davel on his main account tries claiming in the replies on another such thread of theirs that she is impersonating a Beehaw user when Leni’s full name has been established for years and that it’s the Beehaw user who is impersonating Leni). I’m would be inclined to say they actually took the time to listen because they, the most uptight instance, came to the exact opposite verdict, as seen by the “exposer’s” fate after this deceiver was encouraged by another person to “downvote, report, block”, ironically to deal with Leni’s supposed troublemaking alts (which doesn’t hold weight given that Candyman337 was themselves accused of being her alt). You know what they say, when the hecklers have egg on their face, they ought to eat it.

Thank you for giving hope, Blahaj admins hugs the admins

Let’s look at the positives though. I think it’s really cool that the Wayback Machine is in the fediverse, as shown by the fact that the part of your username showing your instance turns into “web.archive.org” when viewed under the Wayback Machine.

      I do appreciate you trying to bring clarity, but I don’t even want to know what’s going on at this point unless it’s going to impact some grouping that I care about in some way.

      It seems that OP is absolutely dead-set against just explaining plainly what’s going on, which biases me a little bit against them being the party in the right, but not conclusively.

      Your accusation is at least specific enough that they have the opportunity to say “that wasn’t actually me” or “that was the result of a moderation conspiracy by parties X, Y, Z” or something like that, but the likelihood of them being as straightforward as that about it seems kind of low at this point.
