I didn’t even know the link was from .ml. I haven’t blocked the instance completely, just some communities.

I’m not sure if blocking them deletes their comments like the piefed code suggested, but I’m done. I don’t have time to deal with drama on the fediverse, and I don’t care what comes from this. I just thought others would get a chuckle about how petty this is.
Actually I think he’s trying to use it as an appeal to hypocrisy also known as Tu quoque. And he’s using it to try and argue we don’t get to criticize him because Lemmy does it too. Except it doesn’t work like that, because Tu quoque is a logical fallacy.
Also Lemmy’s devs removed the API to get user scores because they feared it would be used to enforce Karma on Lemmy, and they were right to do that. It still kind of is but it would be way worse if they made it easier. You know, like piefed does.
