New account but I've been using burner accounts and lurking since the sub got banned. I've been seeing all the standard liberal brainworms again for the first time since reddit-logo and everytime it's an account from another federation. I was tepidly against federation at first but this has been entertaining, like the old days of pigpoop people who wandered into the sub.

I gotta imagine this will only last another week before everyone defederates us, but let's enjoy it for now.

    Yeah mods need to pin a PSA:

    if you don't like federation, set your default filter to "local", it basically makes it like it never happened

        Yes, local only comms have been in the issue tracker for a couple years now. It'll come eventually

        Its literally like the old subreddit. One person posts a dorky liberal take and like 25 replies tell them to fuck off. To me, it's a positive. It's not like there's any chance of a liberal hegemony on the site.
