Personally, While i appreciate the good moderation and have never had issues here. I have noticed that communities are a lot smaller when viewed from here?

Anyone else think here is a little too closed off?

    No. I’m jacked off with all the crap that comes from Lemmy and the sooner that Beehaw drops Lemmy the better. So many bots and trolls there. If you’re not a flag waving Hamas apologist you’re a Trumper. It’s a cesspit.

      Even when Beehaw will switch to another platform, it will probably stay compatible with Lemmy (the way Mbin is).

      I personally blocked all politics and news communities, found much less bots and trolls since then.

        Same. It’s a much more pleasant experience in general.

      Sounds like you picked the wrong instance for an alt account

      I’d say if you pick one that isn’t federated with Hexbear, some specific domains ending in .ml, and some of the other conservative ones you’ll have a far better time around the fediverse.

      Also don’t be afraid to block people

        some of the other conservative ones

        Which instances are conservatives? Genuinely asking, when people ask me if there are conservatives on lemmy my only example is [email protected]

          Specific instances are hard to find which is usually why I flex the block tool a lot around here. Blocking them when they start spewing their bullshit.

          I can’t think of any off the top of my head but I’d check the federated list of instances for some of the instances you see with large queer communities (like the one I’m posting from now) to get a general idea as us queer folk get hella targeted by conservatives online.
