I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.
Says who? They get widely defederated, no one would stay.
We stuck around for 3 years before being able to federate with anyone.
That was then, this is now.
It's been like a week lol. We're mostly happy about federation but we still have closer ties to each other than to the fediverse, even if every instance defederated with us tomorrow we'd just go back to normal.
lmao you have zero understanding of our site culture, i assure you you're dead wrong
They were the largest lemmy instance around before reddit happened, and that was without federation.
