    Fighting Lemmy isn’t the answer. Fighting the brainworms within it is. Attacking Lemmy itself in this way has the danger of leading towards wide support among the userbase (of both instances) for defederating the two, an action that would have significant consequences on future growth and ultimately harm both instances and the goals of the left.

    Made me laugh, nice. But as I said before, this unhealthy friction between instances is pointless.

    • Yeah it is, although it is not exactly between lemmygrad and lemmy, lemmy is only the field of that play.

      It’s between lemmygrad and places like beehaw, scopuli etc., which you can easily notice by looking at the bans on the modlog and the more heated threads - there’s like 4-5 people coming here (at lemmygrad they are banned instantly) and flaming with really nasty shit and obvious trolling - you can just look at the recent Roger Waters thread for nice examples.

        I think a lot of people consider lemmy.ml and lemmygrad as two sides of the same coin.

        lemmy is only the field of that play.

        Could it be due to more and more instances blocking lemmygrad and lemmy.ml is basically the only place where users from the wider lemmyverse connect with users from lemmygrad?

        there’s like 4-5 people coming here (at lemmygrad they are banned instantly)

        With federation, who’s to say that someone comes here or goes there? Isn’t lemmy.ml-posts sent to the instances you’ve mentioned?

        and flaming with really nasty shit and obvious trolling

        In my experience it goes both ways.

          Lemmygrad is by far the most active instance, go to lemmy and filter by “all” not only there are more threads but there are more people by far. But they aren’t the same.

          Could it be due to more and more instances blocking lemmygrad and lemmy.ml is basically the only place where users from the wider lemmyverse connect with users from lemmygrad?

          Yes, although i can’t certify for the “more and more instances”, seems to be few not very active shitlib places who defederated and then go everywhere else and are trying to bring more people to their instances.

          With federation, who’s to say that someone comes here or goes there? Isn’t lemmy.ml-posts sent to the instances you’ve mentioned?

          Scroll down modlogs, many of banned people are from the same places and then make same named account on lemmy. Or lemmy account advertising for the abovementioned instances.

          In my experience it goes both ways.

          No. Saying fuck off is definitely not the same as USA simping or nazi whitewashing.

            You are arguing from a position of objective superiority. I don’t need your certification nor your dismissal of my experiences and I fail to see how we can have a conversation as equals on those terms. Good day to you.

              Ha. Cute, but weak. Let’s go back to the single most glaring base issue here:

              Only one question. Do you agree with my last line from previous post? Oh i also missed the word “better”, so it would be:

              Saying fuck off is definitely better than USA simping or nazi whitewashing.

              EDIT: this is incredible, but at least one lib is of the opinion that USA simping or even nazi whitewashing is in fact better than saying “fuck you”. I especially want to notify admins and mods here, this is what liberal tone policing is and this is why no leftist site should pay any attention to it.
