I left once they started curating & collating lists of known prolific tankies so that they could share them amongst each other to tag each one every time they encountered them on Lemmy.

They lost their domain and federation went with it for now, until they get a new domain
my 7th grade biology teacher dedicated a lesson to why evolution was false and her base argument was that she never evolved in her entire life, therefore evolution was false.
i suspect that a majority of the students agreed w her.
san francisco was never that warm. lol
it doesn’t have to be linux specifically; lemmy was created as a safe space at intersection of open source technology; leftist politics; and genz style shitposting, if your interests align with any of those, then lemmy is purpose built for you.
and corporations copying each other is the reason why lemmy has become my primary platform. i’ve been moving from one social media platform onto another each time each platform enshitified because of corporate policies since the days of icq and bbs. my experience teaches me that anything centralized enough or with sufficient financial backing will likewise enshitify eventually, like reddit did, so i stay away from things like bluesky or mastodon.
the way i describe lemmy to people who aren’t already familiar: it’s like r/linux, r/socialism, r/communism, r/anarchy, and r/shitposting got together to make their own reddit and then the rest of reddit starting joining in during the api protests and now they outnumber the original communists, socialists, anarchists, etc. users by a lot; hence the comment you responded to.
it works great for me because i was in all of those subs and i also left reddit during the blackout protests like 75% of all the people on lemmy did, so you’re in familiar company; you’re technically not on reddit, but you might as well be if you’re part of the right communities.
in your shoes i would definitely pose these thoughts to my therapist.
i don’t have bpd, but i’m on the spectrum like you (autism) and i sometimes see lemming share their own experiences on the nuero-divergent communites scattered throughout lemmy like the neurodiverse and autism communities.
communities like that are where i would go if i were looking for engagement on lemmy regarding bpd.
as i said earlier, .world is center-right; i don’t get any sense of progressiveness from them.
they might be progressive compared to republicans, but not compared to your average western european or latin american or canadian; aka the western world.
democrats are politically center-right for in the entire western world, so it’s not at all a stretch to be conservative, religious, and democrat all at the same time.
the way i’ve politically sparred with them on lemmy proves to me that this is what most of the people of .world and .ee are like; status-quo americans.
both .world and lemm.ee are conservative enough for each one to have their own thriving conservative sub communities; i doubt op would get down votes from them.
your primary instance (lemmy.world) and lemm.ee already have conservative communities so they’re both clearly amenable to it; either one is your best bet.
it’s been aging really well
20+ years ago i spent hours each day developing my own lcars interface based on enlightenment; now i just use whatever x-windows environment the distro i’m using at the moment defaults to.
we must be twins separated at birth. lol
agreed and i think it’s the clearest indicator of the reddit-like nature of both of those instances.
sort of like 2 versatile tops, but no pregnancy. lol
the posts & comments on .world’s and lemm.ee’s conservative communities use same oddly diplomatic wording as well, so i’ve been attributing it to conservative trolls making multiple accounts for the day they’re banned somewhere.
yeah, it seems like you got the basic settings going; you can make the pictures/videos bigger by changing the “Auto expand media” option in your user account settings. click on your username at the top and then click on settings and you’ll see it there.
on the web version, i switch it from posts to comments view and i get a feed of the comments as they’re made; that’s kinda feed like to me.
I wonder why they don’t just keep banning the ones they did like, like they did w tiktok
