    I just wanted an environment away from the redditification that the rest of the internet has become. Sticking to local instances is kinda helping until one of those fucking goobers comes in with their welll akshully bullshit

        Yeah that’s hillarious and all, but i can see how people still get tired of all the shitlib dinguses waltzing into our space being redditor debatelords. That they shrivel and turn into a corncob and drop gems like “i’ve got like 200 messages from insane tankies in my inbox” is amusing, but doesn’t change the fact that we’ve lost having a niche to ourselves where we could completely avoid that particular way of starting self-aggrandizing internet fights.

      I think the decentralized -verse will inevitably split into the lemmy.ml bloc and the lemmy.world bloc, and most of the redditification will happen at .world if it hasn’t already. It’s just what makes the most sense - unlike with Reddit proper the mods of lemmy instances don’t have to share space with other large instances that they don’t like.
