Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.
Dont mind me just slowly transitioning over to Lemmy
I regressed back to Reddit for a bit. I’m back for good after I found out they’re also suppressing anti consumption movements.
Reddit can keep all the NPCs.
…wow. Fuck that place.
I hope lemmy becomes large enough to support niche communities, but never coddles nazis like reddit does.
I fear that the Nazis will come first, but am hopeful they keep to their corner.
The great part about federation is that there isn’t a central control, and so they can in fact have their own instances, and either your instance can block their instance or you as a user can block their instance and you never have to see them or deal with them.
So far, most instances are hostile to nazis because they saw what reddit became. I hope that persists. nazis should not be welcome here like they are on reddit.
Yiggity yikes.
I came back just a few days before this rush began and boy does it feel prescient
What are they doing exactly?
Im here bc the app I used finally broke after the api changes years ago.
I like it but I do not understand the whole instance thing
It’s just like email. It mostly doesnt matter what instance you choose as you can talk with almost any other instance. There are a couple instances that have been defederated from most other instances, but they are few and far between. Anyway, it’s exactly like email.
Think of an “instance” as a server (or servers) where Lemmy is being hosted. So, lemmy.world is hosted by one entity while lemm.ee is being hosted by another. They just have different servers, but they can interact with each other.
Ah okay that makes sense thank you
