A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Isn't that the whole point of federation and seperate community spaces? Don't like what you see? Fuck off someplace else. I haven't seen a single instance of brigading or amything like that. Is this just pearl clutching by reddit refuges?
Some instances such as Hexbear federate for the sole purpose of brigading to harass and argue in bad faith. Have you not been paying attention to the countless threads they have been spamming?
I literally only see threads/posts complaining about them, no actual trolling/brigading etc. But I'm not on Lemmy all the time. If it was such a problem you would think it would be clearly visible.
Take a look on any post outside of lemmy.world that remotely mentions China, Russia, Ukraine or North Korea, and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. Unless their mass flooding of pig poop emojis, bad faith arguments and authoritarian apologetics don't count as trolling or brigading to shut down discussion.
Lol Those threads are a colossal shit fest, how would I even tell the difference between brigading and just business as usual?
I just think that defed should only be used as a last resort in fringe cases not the norm or lemmy instances all end up isolating and becoming echo chambers.
