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.

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

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-

doxxing people

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.

I fucking love comments like this from people who have no clue that hexbear is mostly ideologically alligned with lemmygrad and then get dunked on for it. Here’s a quote for you from a super scary man named Mao that you should learn to take to heart so you don’t get dunked on like this (emphasis mine):

I. NO INVESTIGATION, NO RIGHT TO SPEAK

Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn’t that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense. Talking nonsense solves no problems, as everyone knows, so why is it unjust to deprive you of the right to speak? Quite a few comrades always keep their eyes shut and talk nonsense, and for a Communist that is disgraceful. How can a Communist keep his eyes shut and talk nonsense?

It won’t do!

It won’t do!

You must investigate!

You must not talk nonsense!

So? I call out hexbear for being shitty in its own way too.

Just because one site is clearly a Russian psy-op doesn’t mean the people who fell for the psy-op are in the same group.

Its funny you think there is some nuance im missing, but as is typical for the group in here triggered by my callout, you can’t actually state the problem.

You have to shit on some theoretical point that nobody made.

His point is that Hexbear and Lemmygrad have the same stance on Ukraine:

NATO caused it by arming the nazis during the civil war and making US aid contingent on including the far right in gov’t (instead of contingent on purging the nazis from the gov’t and army), and then by continuing to arm them while they violated Minsk II and did literal pogroms. Western Ukrainian nazis were shelling eastern Ukraine right until the day of the invasion.

Every weapon we send to Ukraine is a bad day for someone, mostly civilians. Anything except ending western participation in the war as quickly as possible is sacrificing more blood of the workers for the profits of the bourgeoisie.

sure thing, you definitely made that comment knowing what hexbear was. If you thought hexbear was really that shitty, you wouldn’t have said it’s better to be on there than on lemmygrad??? They literally post more news about the conflict than lemmygrad does, absolutely baffling behavior to say that lemmygrad is the psyop and not hexbear (it’s delusional to say it’s a psyop either way)

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
