Lemm.ee didn't defederate, is hitting the bong
I can block instances. It takes like 2 seconds
Maybe your app lets you, but there's nothing in Lemmy that let's a user so this
I thought you could only block communities?
That's where I am too! Right there with you.
Why would they defed?
I want .world shitposting back
Never change, Fediverse.
And then there's me, who's just self hosting precisely to follow whomever the heck I want to instead of who the admins haven't gotten angry with yet
Yeah maybe I will do that at some point but after days of searching through them I found an instance I don't mind. And I didn't have to learn how to be a network host...
To be fair, I've seen a few quality memes from the hexies, so I've just been scrolling past the dumb stuff
I've seen more people whining about HexBear than I've seen posts by HexBear. As far as the "tankie" stuff goes, it really seems like people think tankies are anyone who's looked at the Communist Manifesto. They couldn't tell you anything about where the term comes from.
They are afraid of the real left that does not give a pass for imperialism and colonialism
Moral of the story is to create your account on a smaller instance. It took me a few times to learn that lesson.
Ootl what's going on?
Neolibs pissed at the commies for coming into their communities and talking shit, commies pissed at neolibs for calling out their troll behavior in newly federated instances and doubling down on it. Mix it with new fed users who are still not quite sure how federation works or what it means, sprinkle in different blocking abilities depending on app of choice and you've got Tuesday in the fediverse.
Meanwhile they're all missing amazing content and niche communities like the raccoon community and the diy home automation project community, to name a few of my favorites.
No, that cannot be. I was told with great conviction that niche content was nonexistent here in the Verse.
Jokes aside, great summary and thanks for the community plugs! I just recently learned about !soilscience@slrpnk.net
Which community is the diy home automation community? Is it home assistant?
can you link to some of your favorites?
where's the raccoon community?
Honestly I'm here mostly for the memes.
Someone get me up to speed on this drama
LG/HB are vanguard af and we doesn't afraid of anything! I have this account because I made it around the same time I made my LG account and like that Lemmy.ml is pretty good for normies (no hate) of various kinds. Joined HB long before it federated and after the CTH subreddit was quarantined. Both places are much more chill than folks think. HB is much more trollie and should be taken with more than a pinch of salt. LG is much more serious and strict, but you just need to be clear in phrasing things in good-faith if asking questions. Are there dicks on both? Yes, just like there are on here and any other instance. But I think they both benefit more from lurking for a while if not used to non-liberal leftist spaces. Feel free to downvote all you want if you disagree or whatever...or are right-wing of course. #PunchNazisIntoTheDirt

It seems Lemmy.ml and lemmy.grad are full of them.
I got called a bigot by 7 or 8 hexadytes for suggesting that when people finish transitioning they're no longer trans. Cuz they're done.
HB is toxic, if anyone is even on the fence about trans rights and they talk to those people? I bet, if any of them were actually aware of HB, conservatives would fucking LOVE that community. "Look at all these unstable freaks! This is the trans agenda!" or whatever other dogshit they might spew about trans people.
