Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

There's so many ways to interact with the Fediverse. The most popular, by far, seems to be Mastodon, but Lemmy, Misskey, and Pixelfed are also relatively popular. Kbin used to be popular, but it has apparently been abandoned, and is mostly dead at this point.

I recently learned that Mbin is a thing, checked it out, and it looked really cool! Has anyone used it? How different is it from Lemmy? I hear they have better integration with Mastodon.

What Fediverse services do you actually, regularly use?

For me, it's mostly Lemmy, though I do hop on Mastodon every now and then.

they should do it without vulgar insults or baseless slander.

Fair enough.

Look, that's how Lemmy works, because "Lemmy" doesn't realy exist, it's just software. There's no need for a ban appeal or anything, because if you got banned, they don't want you, ever. Some instances do make their admin's contacts public, such as Lemmygrad's, so you could try messaging them on Matrix or something... Though I would not keep my hopes up. You could always make a new account, I think. To check details, by the way, you just go to the bottom of the page and click Modlog and then input the username you want to check. Here is a direct link to checking @Bloomcole@lemm.ee's modlog.

You can do this for any user on any instance, but certain instances don't federate modlogs well with each other, so it's best to check each instance's modlog for instance-specific information.

Each instance has its culture and expectations. There's instances out there for you, I'm sure! Best of luck! And sorry you had such... Negative... first experiences.

After looking around it seems the .ml or .world is not really tolerant towards Lemmygrad of which they defederated.
The same attitude with Hexbear.

Example from196@lemmy.blahaj.zone:

Here are the things that get you banned: -saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account

Thanks again for the info.
