Weird racist posts from dank memes keeps showing up in my feed. Are we doing anything to prevent becoming Voat 2.0? We’re really concerned about Threads and that’s a big unknown. Weird racists already destroyed the last Reddit escape are we concerned about that? Like are we going to make a policy of defederating hate groups?
I’m pretty confident this community is using fake accounts since every post starts at ~20 and then gets down voted after it’s been forced into a bunch of people’s feed.
If not that’s fine I guess but does anyone have a suggestion for somewhere that will?
I’m guessing your instance admins didn’t defederate from exploding-heads.com. You can either ask your admin to defederate, or move to an instance that has defederated them.
Fuckin shit, time to find a new server.
Don’t join lemmy.world or lemmy.blahaj.zone, they just got hacked!
Edit: The hack seems to have been resolved, I’d personally still use caution when visiting.
Do you have a list of other servers to defederate from to keep similar content out?
Other than what I’ve already mentioned, theres lemmygrad.ml (an authoritarian-left extremist instance), I don’t know of any other prominent ones. There are many spam instances, but thoses are like a 50 item long list.
Authoritarian is antithetical to the entire left side of the political spectrum. Tankies are far right extremists.
Left politics with right wing tactics. Or a “Red Fascist”.
With the myth that the USSR was a communist utopia rather than authoritarian rule by the wealthy elites.
You can see what instances any given instance is federated or de-federated with by going to/ instances.
So if you want to see what other instances lemm.ee is federated with, you can go to http://lemm.ee/instances.
If you want to see the same thing for Lemmy.world, you can go to http://lemmy.world/instances
Thank you!!
Cant you just block the offending subs instead of the whole instance? Except for two subs, it’s pretty tame over here.
“This food has dog shit in it”
"Can’t you just eat around it?“
Exactly I’m not going to hangout in the bar that’s cool with Nazis just because they’re not at my table
It’s more like, “I’m not going to hang out in this town because there is a club I don’t like over on the other side of the city”
Pretty sure y’alls were/are on reddit. Plenty of turds you’re eating aroud there…
I also don’t want to live in a town with a Nazi club. Yes
Fair to you then. Unfortunatly, every town of meaningful size will have tons of people you disagree with. Best of luck!
i clicked that link, and know Ihave cancer, thanks a lot.
Yeah that’s the one! I’m pretty sure my account is with lemm.ee and it was showing up in my all/hot feed. I easily could be misunderstanding something fundamentally but doesn’t that suggest lemm.ee was still federated at that time?
Your current instance (lemm.ee) is still federated with exploding-heads.com (nazis) and lemmygrad.ml (tankies). If you want to have a better experience, you need to talk to your admins, and considering switching to an instance that fits your philosophy.
Ok yeah that’s what I thought. And that’s kinda the purpose of my post being on meta lemm.ee to see what the community/admin stance is on it. Thanks!
