I made two posts on [email protected], neither are visible on both instances lemmy.ml are recommending.
beehaw.org has already become a much bigger instance and they ban lemmygrad, we’re already invisible to half the people using lemmy.
It will keep getting worse, at some point you’ll need to maintain two separate instance accounts and you’ll consider dropping one of them.
This is exactly why I have an account on lemmy.ml. Lemmygrad is my safe space to come back to when I am sick of seeing braindead lib takes.
That’s been my approach as well. I also find it’s nice be able to post to lemmy.ml from Lemmygrad and not have all the libs from paces like beehaw descend to downvote. So it’s sort of a feature when you think about it. :)
We can more effectively spread agitprop to users from other instances without having them brigade/downvote bomb our comments, very well noted!
👍
It didn’t used to be so liberal though right? It seems to me with the flood of people from reddit it flipped overnight into almost the exact same liberal groupthink as reddit had.
why didn’t lemmy staff try to control the liberalification of lemmy? to get more people to use lemmy?
I figure there’s only so much that can be done when you have a massive flood of users joining at the same time. Between dev work and administrating lemmy.ml, dessalines and nutomic must be swamped.
dessalines and nutomic aren’t the only admins of lemmy.ml though?
I’m kinda doubtful about them. Agreeable says he’s ML, but World News where he is also a mod is notorious for not banning even outright fake NATO propaganda and shills and not just now but even before. Wazowski is inactive and seems to be radlib. K_o_t seems to be some kind of vague green supporting Ukraine, no idea who Maya even is, Arthur Besse idk but posted some ukronazi prop before.
My conjecture based on disagreements I’ve had with them, their goal is to draw in libs so that the marxists actually have people to educate. Without them it kinda became an echo chamber.
lmao how are marxists going to educate them if they’re people are gonna block marxist instances and ban (or outright block) marxist users for being “tankies”?
most already go “LALALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU” if you as much as try to debunk them on lies about the russo-ukrainian war, about china, about dprk anyway; and find marxist solutions to be “too radical”.
