Recently the site has become full of transphobic and conspiracy garbage, as well as a campaign for Ron DeSantis.

Their admin doesn’t seem to give two shits about any of this he’s just letting it happen without any intervention. Defederating them would benefit this community greatly.

    I sent a DM to the admin yesterday. If they don’t respond or address the issue, we will be defederating.

      It’s a shame it had to come to this, I liked rammy.site very stable and almost never goes out, why do bigots have to ruin everything for us…

        It’s their plan. Sort of like how they trash the comment sections of posts on Reddit until they get the post locked. They don’t want free speech used to talk about how they’re cowardly little shit examples of human beings.

          Yep they trash smaller instances until larger ones defederate them and all the users on them. I’m thankful I don’t have many posts or comments on my account but it absolutely sucks that I’m going to need to find another probably less reliable server.

          Any suggestions for good servers to use as my new home server? I can’t really host one because I have potato internet in a mobile unit (don’t believe what they say, Starlink is absolutely awful) and I also don’t really want to buy a static IP. Just want a small instance with good uptime like rammy did but better moderation.

          • i mean

            i picked blahaj as my main and have felt vindicated in that choice repeatedly

            the admins moderation and federation stances are solid imo

            and they know what theyre doing on the technical front too so i dont expect downtime to be a concern

              Hi new account, Unfortunately their admin is nowhere to be found, if he comes back he definitely could but it doesn’t seem like he’s coming back any time soon unfortunately.

            .Ca is good. Also .world is good. I’d imagine both will be around for a while.

        Damn and I was just thinking how great Lemmy is so far, it’s like super early days of Reddit.

        Actual conversations without the same tired jokes on every thread and way less angry conservatives.
