I have been on Lemmy for a while now but never posted anything as a new post so please forgive me if I am doing anything wrong.
I see that I am part of lemmy.world and that this instance is frowned upon.
Is there a better instance I can join? I am not very clued up on Lemmy and as far as I can see it is made up of lots of different sites which are linked together.
I just want to be part of a healthy group and I am just getting into astronomy so are there any good groups for that please?
If it helps I am based in the UK.
Have a great weekend all.
Lemmy.world, by political ideology, is most similar to old Reddit. Namely, you’re most likely going to find generally-left-of-center people. Several other instances (namely lemmy.ml) are known for being significantly more left-leaning, basically hard communist.
As is tradition for left-leaning people, there’s a lot of infighting. .world people think that .ml people are tankies. .ml people think that .world people are corporate bootlickers. Both sides accuse the other of heavy-handed censorship.
Basically, I wouldn’t worry about it. It’s just your standard leftism infighting.
I’ve rarely seen people of the left on lemmy.world. Not never, just rarely
Not sure if you’re talking about vibes like US Democrats voters or something
