One day the far right has to realize we’re here, and they’ll pile in to hurl abuse etc. When that happens I’ll be looking for instances that moderate and defederate them away. I didn’t realize how much that stuff got me down until I came here from reddit and found people having reasonable conversations, just like in the old days. It’s a rare thing to find on today’s internet. Let the commercial sites go after absolute numbers of users while we pursue a better experience.
Unfortunately far-right fediverse servers aren’t as uncommon as it would appear. Thankfully the quick reactions from admins to fediblock requests are keeping these hate groups quiet.
On another note, I am too really enjoying the environment that Lemmy provides for reasonable and respectful discussions. I’ve never before felt more engaged by a social platform. I’m glad that you find it enjoyable as well!
The fediverse is looking like the objective best alternative, more so day by day.
