Just like the real thing.

This is the power of the fediverse.

You can have all the anti speech rules you want on your instance, people can just start posting elsewhere using the same account and app.

General purpose instances are terrible for decentralization because they basically just put every reddit community on .world. instances revolving around a certain topic or region (like country instances or slrpnk or lemdroid) make more sense with the hierarchical structure of Lemmy.

Reddit power tripping mods migrated en masse to lemmy.world and recreated another Reddit environment there ! glad the fedivere isn't constrained to big servers. but this is still a big problem to resolve as those mods make it hard to engage in conversations with communities that are solely hosted on their instances.

I really need to get around to switching to a different instance.

guys how do i transfer my account to another instance?

I gotta say I'm pretty sick of this shit on lemmy as a whole.

I get that ml has a tankie problem. but is this what we're gonna do now? just whenever something happens on an instance that's it, everyone should move?

even if we did, where do we even go? even in this thread I see some people suggesting instances that other people already call sus.

i guess that confirms how leftist lemmy is. we just morphed the infighting to instance fighting.

From the linked thread, as a reminder:

This is not a lemmy.world admin, who would actually speak on behalf of the whole instance (Not that those haven’t done questionable shit either, but not to this level). It’s a mod on community that happens to be hosted on lemmy.world, and they are citing the lemmy.world ToS in bad faith. Just like a corrupt cop will think of some bullshit law to arrest you if they wanted to abuse their power.

So those of us who aren’t tech geniuses are just stuck?

I’m using Voyager and Lemmy basically works like Reddit did for me. I don’t know what instance I’m ever on or how to see things.

The best part is the left wing instances that .worlders kept complaing are removing it less

LemmyWorld, you failed me son.

Solid meme

Maybe it's just me, but I never had that much of a problem with reddit mods. The only mods with which I had a problem, were tankie mods who had a problem with me calling them out on their mass murdering authoritarian bullshit

I came here because money hungry corpos fucked over my reddit client if choice and their official app sucks balls.

Lemmy is butter. Reddit is the margerin we had been consuming.

Thank you. I needed this meme in my life.

Haha more like lemmy.libs amirite?

Yeah, having been settled in awhile on lemmy before watching that April '23 reddit "exodus" over spez shutting down blackouts...the influx of allocishetmonoabled white dudes, who felt entitled to tell us we werern't welcome, was...well it'd be funny if it weren't such an embodiment of why UHC can get away with a 7,000,000:1 ratio as long as they did. Even when theyre "sticking it" to the CEO's, they're still played like a fiddle.

So fuck em. Refuse to allow them to move the overton window of the discussion rightward. Dont stand for having your take policed, and don't self-censor to appease that stubborn demographic. Make them come to us.

EDIT: I was thinking of .ml, sorry.
