I have just noticed a new community that is dedicated to harrassing an influencer they don't like. They are migrating here after being banned from Reddit.

I don't see anything in the rules that this might run afoul of, but I wanted to make a post and ask if this is content we really want on lemmy.ca? The same influencer who got them kicked from reddit could come after lemmy.ca.

How do we even confirm content is from Canadians?

"Please enter your postal code so a representative can meet you in a pre-approved location like a cop shop and share the site access password required to get to the login page"

I never said from Canadians. I said Canada-centric. In other words, Canada-related. There are more curated instances out there, like beehaw.org. Nevertheless, I appreciate the joke: "Passport required to post" lol

I currently have 2 lemmy accounts: .ca and lemmynsfw. But after sharing my perspective here I did explore other instances and I think it makes sense for me to have 2 non-nsfw accounts. That way I can have 2 different subscribed feeds. I also realized that for one reason or another the All feed on a lemmy.ca instance is pretty inclusive of the larger Lemmy landscape compared to a beehaw.org or lemmy.ml instance. (I compared the 3 without being logged in and the 2 other instances didn't display as many posts on the All feed as lemmy.ca did - I'm not sure why but I would love to be enlightened by a more knowledgeable lemmy :)

Yeah I'd love if we could customize the default feed for our users, but lemmy today doesn't have any functionality like that.

I’m not sure why but I would love to be enlightened by a more knowledgeable lemmy :)

Beehaw.org defederated lemmy.world which hosts most of the Lemmy communities. For lemmy.ml I'm not sure.
