If you appreciate what brahaj has done, or have any comments on how this Lemmy instance shaped your Lemmy experience positively please leave your comments here.

I noticed how there has been some negatives geared towards how blahaj moderates, this even resulted in certain communities being “moved” to other instances and then recreated, on blahaj due to the community of users being against the decision.

if you have anything positive to say about Lemmy.blahaj.zone shaped your Lemmy experience even without being directly on the instance, this is a place to let people know.

    I’ve been a relatively vocal supporter of the instance, even when I haven’t fully agreed with every decision.

    Why? Because I know too many people that need a place like this. I know too many people that use blahaj, and it’s the only place they have they can count on as a shelter against the storm.

    For me, that’s what matters.

      Same. I may not agree with every decision. Sometimes it even frustrates me a little.

      But I just appreciate we have a place that plays it safe. A place where the priority is not on applying complex rules or anything. The priority is just making a safe space. Blahaj for many people is literally the ONE single place they don’t have to watch their backs and deal with bigoted BS. I love that this is and always has been the priority.

      I respect that very much.

        Exactly!

        I keep saying it so that maybe the folks that doubt the benefits of the way things are run; but out in meat space, people I know rely on blahaj as their island. Not everyone I know, but enough that it amazed me to hear people talking about it without lemmy in general being brought up by me.

        There aren’t many places like that, online or off, and it’s so beautiful that it’s here.
