I see this as an absolute win! The point of decentralized social media is that discussion happens across many different linked sites. It doesn't work if lemmy.world is the only big site out there.
Sure have your beef with the admins of another server, but why get upset that discussions are happening there?
lemmy.world users when lemmy.ml user don't immediately suck up to political propaganda
There's a reason why having both world news communities from both instances is a good thing. You'll receive a much wider range of sources and bias, as well as the perspective of people who don't completely agree with you.
Staying within on instance community creates an echo chamber like reddit. There's even such a wild difference within lemmy.world between c/Politics and c/News, despite them often posting similar news and info.
I haven't found Lemmy.ml to be all that objectionable. It's not like they are hexbear.
Your mistake is not having lemmy.ml blocked
I’m subbed to a handful of communities in .ml and it’s not that bad. I consider myself communist, but not of the tankie flavor. Authoritarianism is never a good thing.
If people don’t like those views, they shouldn’t wade in unless they’re willing to have a grounded conversation and not just drop a played out one-liner. I think the most recent uptick in complaints about .ml are because of how often it criticizes liberalism.
Lemmy instances are essentially forums. If I go to a conservative community and tell them all that Marx was right all along, I’m not gonna be surprised when I get banned. Complaining about mods is a tale as old as time itself.
And unfortunately lemmy.ml is getting more online traffic recently.
Is it? It looks pretty stable to me. Conversely, world, lemm.ee and shitjustworks are all experiencing slight but noticeable growth.
What's a better way to make our little community bigger and better that having pesky antagonisms over every little difference we can find.
We better centralize over a single instance of people thinking exactly like we do.
Big /S by the way.
And I'm not even from .ml but come'on, we share more than we disagree on.
Lemmy could really do with the ability to transfer an account to a new instance. The only reason I'm still on lemmy.world is because I can't be bothered to set up an account on another instance that may be as insufferable.
As for communities, Lemmy just isn't large enough to be picky. World is the biggest instance, but is still dead on anything that's not either a Reddit clone or a popular community.
I don't know. What's the problem with lemmy.ml?

Well I was thinking this might have been a but over the top and then I see this: https://lemmy.ml/post/19820595
Or midwest.social, which for some reason I can't comment or vote on.
Related to several other replies: Why are you people looking at political discussions on the internet? Isn't that quite depressing? I am subscribed to basically every popular community across instances excluding anything with the words "politics" and "news" in it's name.
And I think some of you should try not subscribing to any news or politics as well, no matter your ideology. I'm starting to get concerned for some of the people on this platform.
I want to, but the last time I did I got a rightist.
lemmy: fuck hexbear hexbear: >:( lemmy.ml: exists
This, but
lemmy.worldinstead oflemmy.ml:)No point in participating in political discussions on LW, as mods just label anything they don't like as misinformation/propaganda/etc. 🙃
