NSFW. I was glad I could block it. Not everyone wants to look at porn.
Lemmy.world
The most common one will likely be Hexbear. Nasty little group of trolls they are.
I dislike any with downvotes off, the worst take can have 20 downvotes 5 upvotes, will make it seem reasonable/common if you only see 5 upvotes
Even mine?
Hexbear
Lemmygrad
The one run by someone who banned me from it for making a joke despite never even hearing of his instance, or the 3 people that use it before.
What was the joke? You got me curious now.
It was actually quite funny 😂
If it means anything, I thought it was a little funny. And you got a ban for it? Makes the guy who called me humorless yesterday in what seemed like a shaming attempt seem tame. People seem to have forgotten humor is a demographic matter.
I blocked yiffit.net pretty early on, so I guess that? I’m not interested in the content they post, so it was easier to block the entire instance rather than each random furry porn community that would pop up onto c/all. No shame or anything against them though, just not my thing.
I don’t really dislike the furry instances, I just don’t want to see their content. They don’t actively annoy me the way others do.
More and more .world bothers me. If it’s not top on my list now, it will be soon.
Any specific reason?
Over time it, its admins, and its users, have shifted more and more right wing. Their admins are very clearly biased against left leaning content while tolerating more right leaning content. If it flies in America they’re generally ok with it.
That bit where you can’t remove content when it’s blatantly false, their mods “have” to tolerate crap like flat earth? Way overstepping on mod power
Well obviously lemmygrad, hexbear and lemmy.ml but besides these usual suspects I find that the most negative encounters I’ve had with people from blahaj.zone and infosec.pub
Bizarre, blahaj is a very nice place IMO. They might be quite quick to kick TERFs & other bad people so keep that in mind (like no jokes about racism or anti LGBT permitted, at all).
I switched over to lemmy.cafe specifically because they are defederated from those three cancer instances. Experience has been pretty great so far! :>
God I’ve had grad defederate for so long I forgot they were there

Personally, I still haven’t started judging users by the instance that they made their profile on. Unless there’s right wing instances but in that case I’m guessing they’re de-federated from my current experience. I prefer to go by what I’m reading from an individual user or the vibe in a particular community. When you browse instances on the join page, there’s no cliff notes on the turf wars between them. So a lot of users are signing up based on the written description.

Lemmy.world. Full of capatilism lovers and it’s annoying. Plus a lot of American propaganda too. Would block it but it’s the biggest instance so shrugs
I’ve seen a lot of opposition for the competitors of capital but not necessarily support for capital itself.
In my experience with hexbear and the like, “pro capitaist” just means they aren’t posting 100% negativity about the US or west in general.
Lemmy.world. i serioisly despise their de-federating from inatances.
Well, any other instance censuring other ones just because (insert your cause here), so not really anything against world in itself.
Very biased here but I think defederating from an instance filled with genocide apologia makes sense. But that’s the only reason I know of for them defederating from instances
Its still censorship and I don’t like it…
But the good of the fediverse is that I can spin my instance and don’t deal with that!
And I love it.
Everyone is saying lemmygrad, but I think those pedo instances are way worse. I don’t know any of the exact domain names (nor that want to know 🤮) or how many they are, only heard of their existence.
lemmygrad would rank behind all those pedo instances, followed by hexbear, and a portion of lemmy.ml (non political parts of lemmy.ml is still tolerable)
There are “pedo” instances?
I have so many questions.
According to many instance admins, there are a lot.
I mean, I was checking the blocklists to see which instances block tankie instances, and I noticed that there are some on the list with the “pedo” name in it. I don’t know what’s on there and I don’t want to look, but I bet its illegal images, or users defending pedophilia.
I despise the fediverse as a whole. Just a cesspool of echo chambers
Me too, I’d never make a fediverse account.
That’s just the internet.
