There are instances that federate together as a single sort of entity.
So, are there other entities? Meaning, is there a group of Lemmy instances somewhere outside of the existing ones we see here?
And, how do I get there, and which one don’t have people from the USA?
Edit, image example



I remember my first week on Lemmy. It was a few years back. I went to a place that I now know of as [email protected]. I saw a post about something life threatening regarding Trump. I forget what exactly. I commented “haha, good.” Several minutes later I was perm banned by jeffw. That’s about the time I realized this place wasn’t any different than Reddit, a place I never got banned from in the 10 years I was there, and I should treat people how they treat me.
So I guess thank jeffw for creating the monster you see before you. 🙂🙃🙂
Edit: Dr. Jeffenstein!
LW has some contentious moderation decisions. I generally avoid it where possible.
I have no problems with you saying Nazis should die or laughing at the death of someone shitty. I also honestly have no recollection of ever banning someone simply for being “uncivil” because another mod asked, to the point where I think you might be leaving some of the story out.
Nor do I think you’re a monster, but I do think you could ease up on the hostility a bit.
Anyway I guess, welcome to the instance.
