I'll be honest i don't get what people differentiate so much about instances. most of the time i don't even notice what instance people I'm talking to are from, what instance the community in browsing is from, what instance the meme I'm viewing is from... is it about the software you're using that you're so aware of these things?
Childish people love to argue about childish things.

To me, it's mostly how an instance is ran. How it makes its decisions: defederating or not, and with whom, how they handle complaints, how they handle bans, etc. makes a difference in both the communities it hosts and its members.
There's also the matter of user culture. Some instances, like Beehaw, Lemmygrad, and Hexbear are known for a certain user culture. Some users might steer clear away from certain instances because of that perceived user culture.
And then there's the issue of defederation stance. It might not be readily apparent, or affect your user experience in a big way, but for some users, it's a factor. This is also where lemm.ee made its mark. It basically used defederation as a last resort, and some users were drawn to that.

It will be a truly sad day if hexbear disappears. It's nice to have all the toxicity in a single, easily blocked instance.
I'm joking of course, ml and lemmygrad also need the same treatment.
Yeah, the instances that are most dedicated to fighting fascism and providing a safe space for lgbtqi+ and other marginalized groups are the "toxic" ones. Those are the instances that need to be contained so you can block them, huh? HMMMMMM....
-
wqhats the matter hexbear user, not good enough for your circle jerking chambers.
lol it's so funny to accuse Hexbear of being a circle jerk when we are the ones that made all the reddit-like instances mald and defederate us the second they were exposed to perspectives that aren't even exclusive to communists, but are widely held across the global South.
-
ee shouldve blocked the triad of exremism. ml, hexbear, lemmygrad.
hey buddy, sorry we're too cool for you. believing in things is cringe (it's extremism to call out other people for supporting genocide)

Everyone knows that's not true. It's laughable you even claim that. But keep trying to push that narrative anyways.
-
Yeah, but there's no point in continuing to use it at this point.
Personally I disagree. Now would be the time to go into posting overdrive and really let the instance go out with a real bang.

That's why I was here. I've already made a few more accounts just to have backups in case this happens again, but I really really enjoyed how I could see most of the Fediverse, and could block with my own settings if I didn't like the way another instance was ran. I will miss it. :'-]

Lol, no it wasn't. It was the place where the lowest-common-denominator ended up. My experience on more niche, tailored servers has been wonderful for thoughtful discussion and avoiding useless flame wars.

.ml is way more toxic than .world.
.world is the most toxic by far

The main problem would be that all the images disappear with it.
Of course, I could use an external host.

Different admins; some instances federate with some, some block others.

You manage to get the most lgbtq instance defederate you, in case you want you check the mirror before mmmmmmm the rest...

What instance was that? And Hexbear is something like 80% or maybe even 90% LGBTQ, while not being explicitly an LGBTQ instance, so what exactly does it say about us when Western, still mostly white, mostly liberal instances defederate us? That we're suddenly queerphobic or that crackers be cracking?

Thank you, not just for showing respect and appreciation to the people behind Lemm.ee but because these posts are a magnet for the kind of trolls everyone should block before migrating elsewhere.
Hereโs an entitled ass to add to your collection lol https://sh.itjust.works/comment/19001249

There's the fun of it, it all goes poof like a dream. It's an opportunity for lemeeeee people to truly let down their hair and fully be their own quirky selves for one brief moment.

Thanks for saying this. We did see some hate coming from there whereas on more dedicated servers there's generally none of that.

Wherever you guys migrate, please stop concentrating the userbase around lemmy.world, that's exactly what we're trying to avoid with Lemmy to begin with. The best thing you can do is go to https://join-lemmy.org/ and choose a server that's not in the top 10 or so. This will also help avoid things like the admins/mods burning out
.wolrd is the only instance I have been able to stay on so far.
Every smaller one I try bans me for minor disagreements or wrongthink. They all feel like exclusive clubs that they don't really want people to join, but will then whine about low user numbers.
The larger spaces have admins that are more often held accountable and put on blast, it's just the nature of these kinds of spaces.

I think they're talking about lemmy.blahaj.zone.
