Non-tankies on .ML getting upset at this:
You might not be an idiot, but you're wearing a T-shirt that says "I AM AN IDIOT" in bold letters across your chest. Maybe change your shirt. 🤷🏻♂️
80 19 Replyi've created this alt in the interim of finding a more permanent instance residence. Just got exhausted by the massive amount of shit they peddled over there.
17 2 ReplyLemmy.sdf.org is a good one with a "very light touch" attitude towards defederating instances of what you're interested in
Sh.itjust.works is also a good one with great admins I've heard (and also funny name)

2 0 ReplyI've seen people say this, but haven't actually seen it outside of one asshat who picked a fight with Beehaw a year+ ago.
As a user I've had a pretty great experience personally.
3 0 ReplyI've just heard from other mods that it can be a source of problems
Could be the case of a vocal minority. The biggest complaints I have scene is that the instance admins allow whatever

TODO: pedal vs peddle.
I bet there's not a gratuitous amount of bicycling going on over in .ml land, but I could be mistaken.
3 1 Replyfixed from 'pedalled' to 'peddled'. I've met a decent number of Marxist cyclists, so i could believe it.

Come to .nz! Our admin has the best track record on trans rights out of any instance drag is aware of.

to better analogize this, you're hanging around a nazi rally trying to find friends, and people keep calling you a nazi for some reason.
Weird.

I feel like Lemmy has the reputation of being Tankie
3 5 ReplyIt's a metaphor since tankies don't seem to exist or make a difference in real life

It literally does though. I stopped telling people that I use Lemmy as a result. When some instance defederates from ML and establishes itself as being solid, I'd love to tell people irl that I use that.
If you are trying to say not to paint people with too broad of a brush, I get it, but also, we don't get to choose how others think of us, only what we will do in response.

There are a few tankies on other instances. The difference is that they get in trouble when they act out.
