    I’m brand new to Lemmy.

    I’ve seen multiple comments suggesting that .ml be defederated. It was the first thing I saw when I got here. Sounds like there’s a bad apple and nothing is being done about it

      the main reason is because the people who run lemmy.ml are actually the people whi created lemmy.

      Also welcome.

      !newcommunities@lemmy.world and !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca are useful for new users.

      Also if you’re looking for an instance that has ML defederatrd but is still well federated with everything else I recommend lemmy.cafe

      I have zero intention of blocking any .ml but, hilariously, I see they’ve deleted one of my comments. I “think” it was because I had the absolute audacity to suggest that there might be one or two bad apples in Hamas. I’ll still pop by their instances though… I’m secure enough to read things I don’t agree with without having a meltdown and trying to erase it from existence. Having said that I do realise why a lot of people would prefer to sidestep the ml area of the fediverse.
