My first time experience here had been very politically charged and I asked about it in askLemmy and I was told to immediately block you people in the options I was given

I had the opportunity to browse around and found out that you folk were decent and weren't as awful as told in that post I made

How do you view .world and by extension other instances that defederate (and view negatively) towards you?

As others have said, they defederated from us pre-emptively on false pretenses, and so it doesn’t make much sense for me to browse there casually as I can’t interact with users there.

Because of that, the only time I see what’s going on there is when people post the bad stuff they say on /c/Slop, which definitely makes the userbase look a lot worse than it probably is. As in, I think that most users there are most likely fine but there is a ton of really nasty ones that I can only describe as evil.

Unfortunately, I also think that the admins are among the nasty ones as I’ve seen a lot of bigoted comments not being deleted or the ones who wrote them being banned, and of course the things they said during the defed were also very disappointing. catgirl-disgust

    Yeah their admins are super sketchy. 1 of 2 times I've been sent a dm on lemmy has been from one, who out of the blue asked what are you doing?.

    Only realized they were a part of the team when they later commented on a support post saying it's all fine, the mods didn't do anything wrong the last day so we aren't going to investigate them further

    What's even better is when I saw the announcement post saying world should accept flat earthers as an I realized it was that same person. Suddenly so much made more sense
