Idk what the culture is over there but it was just a bit funny to see the entire thread I was replying to just removed. Like that doesn't happen here on kbin lmao. a bit of a culture clash there I guess.

I wonder if that's the norm for lemmy and beehaw? Here on kbin basically nothing is removed it seems. at least for now.

Beehaw definitely had its own standard they try to uphold. Just means choosing your instance is important to your experience.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yup. Choosing an instance is quite important, but also difficult to actually do when you're new to the platform. kinda a catch-22. it's hard to tell which instance you're a good "fit" for before you start using the fediverse, and once you're on the fediverse you already have an instance.

There really should be a guide or something showing the largest instances, what their ethos/views are towards the fediverse, etc. Beehaw makes this pretty clear and have written several posts on it. But outside of just going to beehaw and looking at that, there's not really a way to know.

It's easy enough to get the vibe of users from an instance by interacting with them a bit, but that implies you're already on the fediverse.

There's been some attempt to do what you mentioned already

For sure. It would be interesting if a method to migrate instances was built into the backend of lemmy, but this could potentially cause a lot of headache for instance owners as well. Probably not in the cards, but would solve this problem for sure.

Interesting

I’m already noticing “cultural” differences between the different instances, almost like they’re virtual countries with their own traditions, but still able to see and talk to each other

It’s beautifully chaotic and open, like the Internet should be!

Yup. that's kinda how it feels to me. I saw someone describe it as lemmy is america and the lemmy instances are the states. and then kbin is canada lol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

kbin is canada

confused lemmy.ca noises

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

America isn't run by tankies.
