Fediverse is worse than Reddit. Mod abuse, admin abuse, disinformation, and people simping for literal terrorists.

  • This has been discussed with the devs & admins. You’re basically just opening and blocking the domain itself. Look at the threads on that page. They are all .ml leading links, but posted in various other instances that are not actually .ml. So they’re not an accumulation of actual .ml communities and their content, but content that is posted wherever that links towards .ml. It’s like those domain filters on some websites (like Reddit IIRC) that you can click on to get a list of all submissions from that domain, like a news site for example, except only within the realms of the fediverse.






  • I’m not directly comparing Nazis to vegans and you clearly not even attempting to differentiate between militant vegans and sane vegans kinda proves my point. There’s no nuance, it’s all a black and white “if you’re not one of us, you’re against us” type of mentality. If animal welfare is that important to you, then you’d at least attempt to communicate with others in a reasonable fashion instead of either trying to convert them to some sort of cult mentality or shunning them if they aren’t able or willing to do so.


  • Contrary point of view here. I’m not vegan, not even vegetarian, but reduced my animal produce consumption a lot (not that I consumed much anyway) and am always looking for further alternatives that are possible within my personal circumstances. However, what I’ve seen on Lemmy (and other social media, such as Reddit) regarding vegans, was highly militant and toxic people who spew nonsense and hostility towards anyone who is not vegan. Generally what you’d describe as veganazi or whatever. Seeing things like that definitely does not cause me wanting to join or even lurk such communities and is really just confirming the stereotypes being shared by certain trolls.





  • You stand in line at the checkout, people in front of you, people in the back of you. The only thing preventing you from giving in to the urge of running out of the store is that it would make you look even weirder. As the body temperature rises, a cold sweat forms on your forehead while you try to force an awkward smile to the cashier. The internal surveillance system goes off. You’re suspicious. Suddenly two guys working in the store come out of the door from the back room, heading directly towards you. Your heart drops and you swallow hard as fear and panic sets it… Fight or flight?!
