My humble takes on the most popular Lemmy instances, or “how to piss off the whole Fediverse with a single meme”.
Here are the links to each one of the mentioned instances:
Far Left Centre Left Centre Right Far Right Lemmygrad Exploding Heads Hexbear Lemmy.ml Lemmy.world Beehaw Pricefield Lemmy Based Count sh.itjust.works Blåhaj Lemmy Divisions by zero Lemmy NSFW Hack Liberty
Blahaj zone and beehaw don’t abuse defederation. Both instances use it for the exact purpose needed to achieve their goals. And I like that.
Literally the main reason I’m on blahaj zone is because I’m a trans lesbian and really don’t want to deal with the shit I’ve seen on the blocked instances.
The whole point of the fediverse is you join one that aligns with your values and queer phobic stuff is a hard line nope from me. It’s like the one place I feel reporting stuff actually does something.
I don’t disagree with that, I even said that much in the blahaj quadrant. I just wish there was an easier way to fix these problems instead of burning bridges, because they sure burn a lot of them.
Burnt bridges can’t be rebuilt. Refederation is always a possibility.
Beehaw has said they won’t defederate until Lemmy has better moderation tools. Which is something that is totally out of our control. I have no idea of better moderation tools or even on the road map and if they are I have no idea where on the road map they are.
No one does, there’s a whole discourse around the lack of a real roadmap for Lemmy and what the primary devs’ goals are. Hopefully it’ll happen someday, I guess.
Beehaw even said they’ll refederate with certain instances if/when moderation tools improve. The main problem is that there’s not a lot you can do to block off problematic users from instances on an individual basis.
