My first time experience here had been very politically charged and I asked about it in askLemmy and I was told to immediately block you people in the options I was given
I had the opportunity to browse around and found out that you folk were decent and weren't as awful as told in that post I made
How do you view .world and by extension other instances that defederate (and view negatively) towards you?
As others have said, they defederated from us pre-emptively on false pretenses, and so it doesn’t make much sense for me to browse there casually as I can’t interact with users there.
Because of that, the only time I see what’s going on there is when people post the bad stuff they say on /c/Slop, which definitely makes the userbase look a lot worse than it probably is. As in, I think that most users there are most likely fine but there is a ton of really nasty ones that I can only describe as evil.
Unfortunately, I also think that the admins are among the nasty ones as I’ve seen a lot of bigoted comments not being deleted or the ones who wrote them being banned, and of course the things they said during the defed were also very disappointing.
Yeah their admins are super sketchy. 1 of 2 times I've been sent a dm on lemmy has been from one, who out of the blue asked what are you doing?.
Only realized they were a part of the team when they later commented on a support post saying it's all fine, the mods didn't do anything wrong the last day so we aren't going to investigate them further
Sounds familiar
What's even better is when I saw the announcement post saying world should accept flat earthers as an I realized it was that same person. Suddenly so much made more sense
lemmy.worldlemmy.flatearthguys I know you all hated that like everything else we've done, so just give us time to go back to drawing board
