Genuinely fuck off with this bullshit. I'm sick of this controlled opposition hell-hole.

Which instances are de-federated with lemmy.world but otherwise have no censorship?

    Lemmy.world is reddit with another interface. All the people there are redditbrained to the core, no wonders that instance was born last July when lemmy was invaded by lib redditors. Lemmy.world mods are (sometimes really) reddit mods. (before july, the biggest instance was lemmy.ml that IMO is way better)

      Sorry for my ignorance, but is lemmy.ml left wing, by chance? I find the lemmy vs lemmygrad thing to be really confusing.

        Lemmy WAS supposed to be leaning that way, at least with its anti imperialism and anti reaction....

        But it's more of a gateway than Lemmygrad.ml, the real deal vanguard....

            I think it's more important to note that the DEVS for Lemmy are leftists.

            The reddit geeks came over here and had the gal to complain about leftist sentiment on "THEIR" platforms.

        The admins are Marxists (you probably know, libs from other instances cry about "tankie redfash admins censoring my poor, totally respectable opinions" all the time) The userbase itself is a mix of everything, It was one of the only 2 populated instances a few months ago after all. Anyhow a big chunk of the userbase (I'd say the majority) is left-wing with some of them (me included) being Marxists, or as the average 'worlder calls them: "evil redfash tankies"

        Tldr: the instance doesn't censor/shun Marxist and generally left-wing opinions, and I'd say at least half of the userbase is some flavor of left-wing.

    Reddit ass instance.

    I have no idea why .world's admins and userbase even left in the first place, they're not even allowing discussion of piracy ffs. Might as well they go back, it would lessen their workload dramatically with the help of the reddit admins in removing leftists.

      They'd rather be the head of a snake than the tail of a dragon.

      That is to say they enjoy the feeling of power and control that comes with being admins and don't want to go back to being shitty normals on reddit

      Probably just here for the reddit clients that have also moved to Lemmy. Sync, Boost, Infinity etc.

    The extreme levels of reddit brain cope of banning a user that wanted to block your crappy instance anyways

    The bot discourse that was created as a result of the 2016 election interference nonsense has been probably the worst thing to happen to public internet forums.

      I forget the details but I think it doesn't block all interactions with that instance and its users, just posts from comms on that instance or something
