The formerly dead !corvids@sopuli.xyz is currently being used to push out the !crows@lemmy.ml community. Basically all added content is just reposts of content that's being posted in the ml community. To me this seems very much like harassment.

Are such hostile communities welcome on sopuli?

I like crows. Why should I care that there are more communities about them?

To me it looks like your goal is to stir up drama. You said there was harassment, of who? You say the new corvid forum is something to be ashamed of, why?

Just saw the guy admitting that all his reposting is just being a boycotting effort. https://sopuli.xyz/post/24543846?scrollToComments=true

So this IS about stirring drama after you lost a community vote to move the Corvid community.

Sounds to me like you’re the one engaging in harassment.

I have lost no community vote, nobody has lost a community vote, there was no community vote.

I don't want to anger you any more, and will finally move along for real - third time's a charm 😆

I would not mind more than one community about crows. It's just that the sopuli one is currently not a crows community, but a fediverse politics community.

The actual crows community is the crows one, their mod was carrying it for all this time, posted mostly original content and it picked up a few other posters along the way. Making a niche community work on lemmy is tough, tough to stay motivated and i'm thankful for people like him to stay on it. The sopuli one was sadly dead since its existence.

About two weeks ago now the consolidation mafia 😆 started reposting the content from crows, so mostly the OC of its mod, into the corvids comm. Then they opened a topic in a fediverse politics group, @ing the handful of active users to ask them to move over to corvids. Happy to see that none of them seems to have it, only the politics people love the idea of course. Lying through their teeth claiming the corvid community was just as active as the crows one. @ing the admin about ten times to drag him into this politics group and wondering how he is not replying to this brazen attempt to kidnap the small community that he has been building over the last two years. They also have no history caring much about crows, it is solely an attempt at a power move.

So yeah, i feel like they are harassing the mod of crows community and i despise their attempt to hurt a fine small niche community. That's it. I understand you all think there is nothing to see here, so i will move along.

I love this greek tragedy you're been writing. It's absolutely brilliant.
