The shear amount of tankiness over on lemmy.ml is making me seriously consider leaving the platform.

    Reddit had a huge amount of tankies that only lived on a handful of isolated subreddits.
    It makes sense that they’d flock to the Lemmy where the FDQN literally stands for Marxist/Leninist.

      I don’t know about others but this hasn’t been my experience. From what I’ve noticed a lot of left or left-leaning subreddits have been taken over by tankie mods.
      I’m much happier with how kbin/lemmy/mastodon/etc work, at least this way I can choose my left/hard-left/left-leaning communities that I wish to interact with without them being controlled by tankies or other authoritarian flavors.

      Why does this comment, and the one it’s responding to show, up in 3 places?

      Edit: I’m actually seeing this elsewhere too. Maybe it’s quirk of cross communication between instances?
