Hi, I'm Dee.

I was browsing through the various instances to join up with because I was tired of all the downtime with lemmy.world and I wanted to start using Lemmy as it was intended (spreading accounts out among more instances). That, and Beehaw hasn't been quite as engaging since defederation with lemmy.world and other large instances (which is why I went back to the lemmy.world account in the first place). I get why they defederated and I support their decision, it just was an overall negative impact for me in my Beehaw experience since I was in so many other communities outside of Beehaw.

This instance seemed chill, it blocks Threads and exploding heads so that's a great first impression. There's a few more instances I'd like to see added to the block list but that's a good enough start for me to get comfy here. The low user count has made everything just run so much quicker than with lemmy.world and I can still enjoy the same communities.

Happy to have found this place that appears to be here for the long haul and I'm looking forward to getting to know the local instance community more!

Edit: Sorry for triggering the snowflakes in the comments and for them feeling the need to provide substantial proof for why so many other instances defederate from them by default.

Hi there, glad to have you here and glad you chose this instance! If you think other instances should be blocked, let me know which and I'll check out whether it's something that I think benefits the users here!

[–] Dee@lemmings.world 0 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Sure, thanks for being open to it even from a new user!

Pulling from some other instances' list of blocked instances:

rammy. site (becoming more exploding heads-like due to what appears to be admin abandonment)
detroitriotcity. com (similar vibes to exploding heads crowd)
eientei. org (racism in one of the opening rules on their about page, very exploding heads-like with a dash of shota/loli content)

There's probably some more that honestly shouldn't cause many issues for an instance this size but probably good to defederate preemptively. I was going to pull from lemmy.world's blocked instance list because I think they have a good list built there, but their site is down so I can't see the actual list they have defederated lol

@Dee @rikudou ive got the list right here buddy check it

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good list, all 3 defederated after evaluation.

[–] Dee@lemmings.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I blocked and reported a few more in this thread, which you probably already saw. Can we get defederation from bae(.)st and detroitcity(.)com as well? Same reasons as the other three instances listed above.

Maybe throw hexbear(.)net in there as well for brigading comments a lot like this post. Not the first time I saw it from that instance either.

Hexbear didn't seem to do anything wrong as far as I know.
~~I will be writing to admins of bae.st~~ after some more research, I defederated from them as well
detroitriotcity has been defederated from.

[–] Dee@lemmings.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for taking the time/consideration and defederating from those two.

@Dee @rikudou good job king! With your help we can stop those evil nazis that followed us here from saying bad words.
