mechanically speaking though, you can just fork it

or leave lemmy.world (say) for another instance

world is straight up the worst instance, truly impressive how bad it is

It's sliding further and further to the right, calling out transphobia gets your comments removed now if it's against power users being transphobic or defending transphobia.

i just purged a bunch from /c/transgender. felt good. tell them to bring more. i want to splat them

Sorry, but you'll need a stronger warrior than me for that. After today, I refuse to deal with anything .world related, it's a right-wing cesspool.

Great job kicking chud ass though! splat

I did, actually, and my own comment was removed instead, so I blocked the transphobe and moved on. I'm sorry, but it's clear that Lemmy.world isn't the space for me so I am not going to interact with it.

Maybe I'm not understanding. But my thing is stuff like this

Internet is sliding away from what it was originally in the worst way. it's to the point you cannot create anything without forcing ads into it. At what point does just forking the instance not work. Who says github doesn't just start charging people like an Azure subscription and then offer up as packages as a way to reduce cost
