Coming from Reddit, it feels similar but nice overall. Still a bit clunky because fediverse stuff is clunky, somewhat by nature.

    Hard to say. Burggit was defederated so quickly that I never really got to make use of the other instances. As it is now this instance could almost just be another message board. Don’t know if there’s any chance of re-federation once moderation tools improve. I hope so. I do like the communities feature of Lemmy. They provide a gathering place that was missing in Mastodon.

      I hope for the refederation too, but, if mastodon/pleroma/etc culture tells us something, most likely it wont happen, which sucks massive ass. I hate those heavy handed moderation practices.

        But loli is very harmful :( real children died for my drawing of a foot that I made on a napkin the other day. All servers should defederate us so we do not draw flat chests on napkins anymore and cause more unnecessary deaths.

            same, i just think they exaggerate by literally calling it “csam” as if there were some abuse happening when someone draws a loli on a napkin.

              The analogy I like to use is that you can draw a girl and say she’s 18 and that’s fine, but use the exact same drawing and say she’s 17 and everyone loses their shit.

                  Yeah, people vilify you for even considering that it might not be as bad as everyone says it is.
                  I’ll probably just turn it into a meme later.

      I’m using the Liftoff app and I’m liking how you can sign into multiple accounts at once and view all your instances and communites you have access to across all accounts, so that sort of mitigates this issue, though of course it’s not perfect.

      Yeah, at this point in time, it really feels like just another message board. It’s like we’re on a completely different software and site compared to if we’re still connected to the big instances. I do hope we grow further still.
