I made two posts on !anime@lemmy.ml, neither are visible on both instances lemmy.ml are recommending.

beehaw.org has already become a much bigger instance and they ban lemmygrad, we're already invisible to half the people using lemmy.

It will keep getting worse, at some point you'll need to maintain two separate instance accounts and you'll consider dropping one of them.

    Gonna be honest - it's currently better to just have an account on lemmy.ml. The reddit format of this site plus the relatively small userbase makes instance blocklists a major headache for communists. Currently, if you want to follow the news on lemmy and have conversation about it, you can't because all the liberal instances block their users from seeing us.

    I imagine that in the future, there will be a large confederation of liberal instances that will be highly reddit-like and ban communists. Then there will also be a smaller confederation of communist instances. There will also be lemmy.ml with the issues you mention... or maybe the liberals will ban that one too since they refuse to block lemmygrad.

      You are right, I will create an account on lemmy.ml if I can.

      Big IF.

      I'll just browse lemmygrad from lemmy.ml

      Do you know of any way I can specifically browse Lemmygrad communities from lemmy.ml? The only options are Subscribed, Local and All.

        This is what I've always done, but lately I noticed a large uptick in braindead liberal comments. I even did my first user block after about a year and a half. It's so much nicer to come to lemmygrad.ml though and not have to see all the ass-backwards takes on everything.
