i know you’ve all heard it before, but i didn’t catch up, i was honestly a bit surprised when i was browsing and tesseract on dubvee shut down.

Dubvee was mass banning users for harmless comments on comms on other instances that had nothing to do with their instance. It all seemed very strange to me, what the point of all that was.
Essentially, if you were a user on his instance he assumed you were there because you wanted his curated version of the fediverse. So his instance ban list got treated like his own personal block list.

It definitely was stated yes. I don’t want to try to search for it now that dubvee.org is down, but fwiw I definitely recall seeing multiple posts by him stating exactly that, how he wanted to replicate “Beehaw” behavior.
Edit: e.g. a link I shared with someone earlier, not that it works anymore but if it helps: https://dubvee.org/post/dubvee.org/1516426 .
They’re certainly not the only instance that engages in such classy activities
Sounds like a major perk of that instance to me.
Mass banning people for harmless comments that have nothing to do with your instance is a major perk for sure. 👍🏻
I’m glad we agree.
