have you tried growing up yet?

i had a buddy that would do the same and if he correctly guessed would unironically say the movie was bad because it was too predictable

People block .ml, because while some decent communities may exist, their admins will see your comments elsewhere, then find any/all comments on their instance and either harass you or ban you.

I’m not sure what you mean. If someone harasses you then you can just block them. If you block an instance it’s users can still see your posts elsewhere and comment can’t they? I don’t politically align with the Lemmy devs but lemmy.ml is their instance and just like piefed, mbin, and others they can run their personal instance as they see fit. Isn’t that the whole point of federation?

lol all they did was disagree with you relax

What’s wrong with people expressing their opinion?

I appreciate you clarifying. I didn’t realize you were the developer. You reminded me the importance of verifying information before posting about it.

I was just repeating what I’ve heard elsewhere. It does appear that the included blocklists can be edited. I have mixed feelings about labeling certain websites.

i’m new to my nstance that isn’t defederated from anything and I see an awful lot of whining about .ml hexbear and lemmygrad but i haven’t seen the users do anything. i’m more annoyed by the whiners so far.

I prefer Lemmy because unlike Piefed there are no hardcoded instance or user blocks. Although, you do have to find a lemmy instance that isn’t defederated. I like being able to see a multitude of opinions and manually block people/communities that I feel don’t contribute to discussion.

work + hobbies + 1 relationship is all of my time. idk how they manage
