tbf compared to masto/“microblog fediverse”, the “threadiverse” barely had any culture beyond a few exceptions so this place is almost guaranteed to get “redditized” if you’re not on an instance that moderates with the same strictness you’d expect on masto (partly why i picked this instance among others)

i’ve seen my fair share of freeze-peach warriors in the comments here. all you have to do is to drop the word “defederation” anywhere and they’re all raging to “debate”

there’s like a 25 character limit (i think. it’s 20 by default but it’s changeable per instance by the admins) so if your name is short enough you can put it there.

On my own end I’ve elected to hide all comments from kbin.social users (via uBlock, see https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1633853) and I’ve been avoiding subscribing to communities hosted there. Not because any bigotry or whatever (I try my best to report anything I find suspicious) but just because any time I’ve seen comments with “meh vibes” (even if it isn’t anywhere near bigotry) it seems to come from there (or lemmy.world, which I’ve also been trying my best to limit my own participation to, but I haven’t yet filtered them out completely)

Granted that’s probably because of it’s flagship status. kbin is way more centralized than Lemmy ended up being. (Even with .world’s frankly unmanageable size)

I am not explicitly advocating for defederation (if it isn’t causing a large burden behind the scenes, that is), but if you did defederate I personally wouldn’t complain :p

and if it were to be de-federated, then lemmy.world would have been ages before that.

.world gets the “untouchably large instance” pass that mastodon.social and it’s ilk always gets, especially amplified by the community oriented structure of Lemmy.

This is in no way a dig to the admins here btw. Defederating from .world would cut off a LOT of otherwise alright communities. That said with their recent statement of “we’re not big compared to Mastodon so we’re not doing anything bad by keeping registrations open!! We want more 🚀 users 🚀” seemed so disingenuous that I myself am considering just outright filtering them out on my own end. And if the Beehaw defederation didn’t bring any sense into them then Blahaj defederating won’t do much either.

Honestly we’re lucky the admin doesn’t seem to be namesearching and replyguying like some others (ahem universeodon ahem)
