in different social networks I often see a table of fediverse alternatives to centralized social networks like twitter = mastodon and so on, but I noticed that the alternative to reddit is piefed and not lemmy, can someone explain what kind of fediverse project this is, and is it different from lemmy?🤔

There are two logos in the image, these are piefed and lemmy and in the middle is the word vs? what does it mean who is better

The amount of extreme views I've come across made me just leave most of groups and there's very little point opening it up... lemmy simply hasn't got enough people to be blacklisting things. How do you handle it?

    Are you blocking instances? You gotta block instances. Also block users aggressively. There aren't that many bad egg users on the respectable instances. It doesn't take too long to really clean up your feed.

    You dont miss much by blocking. If you feel the comments are impacting then 100% block because your experience will be so much better.

    So that you can be a base non participatory consumer and never have your opinions challenged or questioned?

    People claim they block "extremism" and "hate" but really in most cases they block out anyone who says anything that goes counter to their personal dogma, just like, you know, extremists.

    The kind of accounts im talking about aren't the ones that are ever worth engaging with. Its not challenging to my views to have to defend the idea of democracy or explain why authoritarian regimes are bad.

    I don't know what you consider extreme views. I don't feel the need to try to handle anything.

    If you're wondering how I curate my feed, I only browse by subscribed communities. If I want to find new ones I look at cross-posts, the community promotion coms, or search by interest.

    the constant calls for violence towards one's perceived political opponents is pretty extreme.

    i see it here on a daily basis, even with several instances blocked.

    and i notice the people who have those extremist views... will tell you there are no extremist views here. because well, to them calling for murder and death and dismemberment of people they don't like, is normal. and if you don't agree, they feel they have the right to kill you too.
