Think a lot of big places defederated with lemmygrad and hexbear. .ml slipped under the radar, so you have to block it manually.
Nah lemmy.ml didn't slip under the radar, it's intentionally still federated with because it's the main instance of the core lemmy developers. Said developers also own and operate lemmygrad, but lemmy.ml is meant to be neutral ground.
lemmy.ml never really used to be that bad, either. It was only after the mass defederation of hexbear that users from there started making alt accounts in other instances, lemmy.ml being one of the main ones and, unfortunatley, lemm.ee getting its share also. lemmy.ml is still ostensibly neutral ground, however now it has a pack of refugee users skewing how its perceived.
I think feddit.uk is still federated with hexbear btw.
Nah man, I've been banned twice now simply for mentioning that time Russia shot down a civilian airliner over Ukraine. .ml is very fucking far from neutral.
i left .ml because i kept getting banned when arguing with tankies
I think it was primarily /c/worldnews over there that has that issue, what really doesn't help is they use the same font and colour as the same community from lemmy.world.
Nah ml isn't neutral. I was banned for saying NATO is a defence alliance
I also find shitjustworks to be bad.
What's wrong with shitjustworks? I just moved my account there because they seemed nice IMHO.
I think a lot of trolls set up accounts there.
Nothing. It's a good stable spot. Stays updated. It has the best instance name too.
Yeah, I block all three.
You have the block it manually for now.
I give it a week before some dolt there calls for violence (in a tangible sense(again, lol)) and it gets axed from the zeitgeist like the rest of the auth-right drivel does.
