The Naysayers Wont Stop Progress

Lemmy.today has an open federation policy and tends to have most conservative users who want to stay connected to the wider threadverse.
I was not familiar with that. Didn't know this instance was even well known. Good to know what the instance is apparently known for

I am. I mostly just tell people I like their art/post or whatever and that I hope they have a nice day.
Which, I hope you have a nice day
Have a nice day too!

This post did not contain any content.
Only lefties can use it
Lowkey, I love that about us uwu

I got permanently banned from Reddit after 15 years and now am here. It’s better overall mainly because less bots
And less right wing, which means less stupid overall. At least I haven't had to constantly explain how the world works to people I disagreed with. Smart bunch.

I joined because of the open federation, but mostly because I wanted to have full control over which instances I block. I'm definitely not conservative though.
Interesting. Have you seen more conservatism overall? Or I guess my question is, "how is it?"

I uh, don't know the beaver and book things, what are they?
I'm having 'Nam flashbacks with having to remember all these flags and capitals.

They do not defederate as much as the other instances and seem to have a lax moderation stance.
That does usually tend to lead to a certain kind of environment yeah. Nazi Bar parable and all that.

You guys are having fun?
Not today, but, sometimes...

I kind of like the current barriers to entry here. the filter is keeping out the exact kind of people I left reddit to avoid.
I was thinking the exact same thing the other day. I still meet users of opposite opinions here—which was never a problem, but exchanges are mostly at a polite, educated, and respectful level. Nothing like the childish POS that lurk in Reddit in every sub.
If some people find it too hard or stupid to be on Lemmy, then that's people I doubt will enrich my online experience in any way.

In the US nowadays that means people who aren't aggressive, childish, xenophobic, homophobic, bigot, racist, egotistical, selfish, nazi, trumpist, or MAGA.
Edit: I forgot misogynistic

There is an actual conservative community there, and just recently a second one was added: https://lemmy.today/post/32360706.

Oh, wonderful! Nothing a little
document.querySelectorAll('button[type="button"][aria-label="Downvote"][aria-pressed="false"]').forEach(btn => btn.click())can't fix. -

I haven't, but I also intentionally stay way from seeking it out and don't browse all, at least not locally. The instance also went down for a few days a couple of weeks ago due to an expired cert, which nearly made me leave for a different instance. Other than that, it's been fine so far.
