  1. Why does everyone have beef with lemmy.ml
  2. Why don't you just block the instance

Edit: thank you for real responses, got so used to be people getting pissed for no reason on social media that I was genuinely surprised to check Lemmy and see a bunch of genuine answers with no butthurt to be seen

I choose not to block the instance because there is a very small group on there that have non-political discussions that I enjoy, same with hexbear.

I also don't like creating an echo chamber where all I hear is what I want to hear. Hearing from the other side, as disgusting as their viewpoints can be, at least let's me know how they think.

I don't agree with their tankie views, but it does force me to see other views. However I usually just eyeroll and move on.

If I see racism or hate though that's an immediate block.

Agreed, if it's targeted like that, you get a block.
