Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I’m just curious to know how y’all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

Authoritarian propaganda is kind of ruining it for me. I came in excited to help build something together and now I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
Maybe I’d recommend an instance that doesn’t federate with Hexbear, ExplodingHeads, or Lemmygrad.
I was going to say “what authoritarian propaganda” because I don’t see any of that shit, but yeah, my instance doesn’t federate with those places. The strength and the weakness of a federated system, I suppose!

Yeah people have a wide range of political views, plus on anonymous social media you never know if an account is even a real person or KremlinGPT.
I’ve had some luck blocking instances within mobile apps, but that doesn’t scale well if the number of toxic instances is constantly growing. I’m curious to see how this gets addressed in the long run (or if it is left as is, since it is technically working as designed).
