To be honest, I can understand, Lemmy being pro-communist. Shouldn't promote to new users, instances that don't federate with us, on the other hand let the liberals go there and leave us alone ...

Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

This is exactly why I have an account on lemmy.ml. Lemmygrad is my safe space to come back to when I am sick of seeing braindead lib takes.
It didn't used to be so liberal though right? It seems to me with the flood of people from reddit it flipped overnight into almost the exact same liberal groupthink as reddit had.
why didn't lemmy staff try to control the liberalification of lemmy? to get more people to use lemmy?
I figure there's only so much that can be done when you have a massive flood of users joining at the same time. Between dev work and administrating lemmy.ml, dessalines and nutomic must be swamped.
dessalines and nutomic aren't the only admins of lemmy.ml though?
I'm kinda doubtful about them. Agreeable says he's ML, but World News where he is also a mod is notorious for not banning even outright fake NATO propaganda and shills and not just now but even before. Wazowski is inactive and seems to be radlib. K_o_t seems to be some kind of vague green supporting Ukraine, no idea who Maya even is, Arthur Besse idk but posted some ukronazi prop before.
Gonna be honest - it's currently better to just have an account on lemmy.ml. The reddit format of this site plus the relatively small userbase makes instance blocklists a major headache for communists. Currently, if you want to follow the news on lemmy and have conversation about it, you can't because all the liberal instances block their users from seeing us.
I imagine that in the future, there will be a large confederation of liberal instances that will be highly reddit-like and ban communists. Then there will also be a smaller confederation of communist instances. There will also be lemmy.ml with the issues you mention... or maybe the liberals will ban that one too since they refuse to block lemmygrad.
You are right, I will create an account on lemmy.ml if I can.
Big IF.
I'll just browse lemmygrad from lemmy.ml
Do you know of any way I can specifically browse Lemmygrad communities from lemmy.ml? The only options are Subscribed, Local and All.
This is what I've always done, but lately I noticed a large uptick in braindead liberal comments. I even did my first user block after about a year and a half. It's so much nicer to come to lemmygrad.ml though and not have to see all the ass-backwards takes on everything.
at some point you’ll need to maintain two separate instance accounts and you’ll consider dropping one of them.
Not if you have no plans to ever visiting anything outside lemmygrad.
