Welcome! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz . !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.

We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a .ee account so you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

Exactly right... cm0002. If you don't like a instance, block it with the tools given to you. Why haven't you blocked .ml if you feel so strongly about this?

Solidarity amongst the instances! We will not be divided against each other!

I signed up for hexbear out of morbid curiosity, that place feels like an insane asylum.

I was banned there as well, although maybe the ban is gone with the domain drama. It's their instance, they should run it how they want.

It's a site by and for Communists and a safe space for queer users, it isn't that complicated. I'd also recommend not calling it an insane asylum, as @OpheliaAzure@lemmy.blahaj.zone said it has one of the biggest trans userbases on Lemmy and that's frequently used as a transphobic insult, not to mention the ableism.

I've been forced to stay at an insane asylum, I was only going based off my prior experiences is all, had no idea about the trans thing.

Fair enough, but I think you should just take care with that. Do a bit more research before jumping to insults that can be damaging to people's gender identity.

calling an instance with a large amount of trans people an "insane asylum" is such a telling thing. Go back to reddit you abelist transphobe
