The shear amount of tankiness over on lemmy.ml is making me seriously consider leaving the platform.

    rather than leaving the platform, find or host yourself an instance that blocks the tankie instances… I’m loving sh.itjust.works so far, which blocks lemmygrad.ml - that’s the beauty of federation

      This is happening on lemmy.ml I can cope with there being instances for tankies, what’s bothering me is one of the main instances pretending their not so that they can push straight up recruitment shit at people who don’t know.

        It doesn’t have to be a main instance if enough people come into the other instances, and there’s plenty of content elsewhere. I don’t interact with lemmy.ml at all personally.

      tfw kbin doesn’t block any instances and just watching the drama of different instances block each other 🍿

        Hello fellow kbinner… kbinnite… kbinmate… what’s the word we’re calling each other again? Anyway, I feel the same way.
        One of the main reasons why I didn’t choose lemmy was explicitly because the kind of red authoritarian crowd they seemed to attract. Sure, there’s gonna be people like that on kbin as well, but so far it’s been pretty decent from my point of view.
        Ngl, the drama is pretty nice when you’re not involved in it 🍿
