Following the spirit of spreading across the Fediverse (and because my main instance is down so many times, because diverse reasons) I'm intrigued about the joining instance process, because I honestly don't know what criteria to have in order to join another one if I ever want to do it.
That made me curious of how you decided to join?
I firstly join to lemmy.fmhy.ml thanks to Spez and a Reddit post from FMHY subreddit, then the tragedy occurred, then I joined to lemmy.world which is/was my main one because I pictured it like a good home, then lemmy.fmhy.net revived and I am with them too, but seems like they are in a bit of trouble with the server, finally now I am in lemm.ee, but only because I just wanted another backup, not because I searched for it especially (also it was mentioned in a comment about smaller instances and one user from here throw a joke to not join here because it sucks so that way the server would be more stable, so yeah, I joined).
To be clear I am not in search for yet another instance (that sounds like a good instance name to be fair), I just want to know how the deciding process is for you, is it just random? Is it because of personal tastes?
I couldn't care less about NSFW stuff, I don't search for it specifically, but my day won't be ruined if I see a tit.
I like gaming, tech, Linux, SBC gaming, emulation, macOS, Android stuff etc (yeah how original) should I look for an instance dedicated to that if I ever want to join yet another one? Because I see topics like this in almost any instance.
I read you lemmings!
EDIT: BTW the migration process has been easier for me thanks to LASIM, so I wouldn't be scared if I ever want/have to migrate again.
I was on lemmygrad at first but then they banned me for being a liberal so now I'm on hexbear
Youre better off. Lemmygrad is like 90% Russian propagandists. Dudes think editing a commercial to whiten skin tone is the same as genociding children.
Reminds me of late stage 4chan and r/the_donald
As a Hexbear user, I personally get paychecks from both Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping for every comment. It's a pretty sweet gig ngl.
Xi ate all my food with a giant spoon. It's true because the TV told me so. They are telling the truth just like they told the truth about MKUltra and Vietnam and those WMDs and-
Have you tried reading the thread? We were talking about lemmygrad.
But I've been seeing yall dipshits on hexbear brigaiding and doxxing people for the tamest shit so I wouldn't be surprised to see yall far behind.
ok I'll bite. Who's been brigaded, or doxxed, via hexbear? Our own users?
Literally where? I've seen people talking about the dweebs running lemmy dot world doxxing some random user that they thought was @ Carcosa on hexbear, but I have not seen even a single allusion to hexbear doxxing anyone until now, including from the sea of people who hate it.
This is the funniest shit I've seen all day, thank you lmao
Then you read boring shit.
Don't be so hard on yourself
I'm rubber ur glue
If I'm glue does that mean we're stuck like this now?
Shit
Weird, I didn't see a single pro trans post, I only saw hateposting
I did see the typical Russian disinformation headlines that linked to garbage.
Strange toggle ypu made there. I guess being pro trans for 1 post justifies endless hatred and violence to all other groups amiright?
And being pro trans shouldn't be a bragging point, that's called bare minimum lol
Weird you're so defensive about the instance that's full of Kremlin agents lmao
These Russian bots are getting a snarky personality now lol
beware of their disinformatskya
Nice one!
Explains why they've completely ignored my registration request, only wanted to learn more about socialism over there since my instance is defederated from them. Oh well ๐คทโโ๏ธ
There are people on Hexbear who would positively love to talk with someone curious to learn if you post a thread on c/askchapo and try to be unassuming about things.
Hexbear is fine for that btw
