Man, I was all on board with this idea. Federated instances made so much sense to me. But it's tankies all the way down, and it's just not worth my time anymore. Hell, if the largest instance bans you seconds after you call out a tankie mod, where can you escape? Great idea, terrible execution. Everyone wants lemmy to grow, well, until the nazis and tankies are gone, that shit just ain't gonna happen.

Y'all have fun.

Except the nazis/tankies.

Y'all go play in traffic.

I don't see many tankies, maybe its the communities you're subscribed to?

[–] BarrierWithAshes@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

I've seen very little. Theyre mostly congregated on hexbear and keep to themselves unless summoned.

Same here, I have 3 instances blocked and don’t really see tankie crap. Just tons of spam.

Nice instance name!

[–] Narrrz@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i browse nothing but all. I've seen maybe a handful of posts that maybe featured a single tankie in the comments.

granted, I'm on kbin. maybe that's making the difference

[–] Jaytreeman@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm on kbin too. I haven't seen any of the things that I see a lot of posts complaining about. (Beehaw, hexbear)

I'm also pretty far left. I'm not a tankie though. I'm curious how much of the complaining is just right wingers bitching about reasonable opinions

[–] IronCorgi@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think that's what a lot of this is. I'm at the point where I'm more annoyed about the people complaining about tankies that I ever was about tankies.

[–] Jaytreeman@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

100%.
I'm going to start blocking any complaints about tankies.
