After years of reddit/twitter/facebook propping up fascism/bigotry with algorithms & bots I’m honestly surprised and relieved to be in an online space that clearly rejects their ideology.
They can have reddit/facebook/twitter. AFAIC the only way to reach some of these people is to leave them alone long enough to realize on their own.
Lemmy.world admins are doing an amazing job dealing with everything. Their recent decision to defederate from exploding heads (or whatever its called) really goes to show that they’re in it for the right reasons.
…and more nazi
Explains a lot. I never saw the appeal but I am not a racist.
There were a few subreddits that got the axe along with some of the nsfw and hatemob stuff that were neither. Man it was awkward watching Voat rapidly spiral with that massive imbalance. Lemmy seems cool so far, and even if it doesn’t end up top of the list, at least viable alternatives/competition is starting to gain ground on reddit.
Voat got so bad they bullied The_Donald users off the site for not being shitty enough. I almost respect them for that, but yeah, still super shitty.
