I enjoy not having corporate censorship deciding what I can and can't see or say; not that I comment or post that much.

I occasionally have a real conversation on Lemmy.
i like piefed because it's not owned by a publicly traded company with massive ai deals, there's fewer terfs, and shonky > snoo
I don't I'm just banned there. I would be fine with lemmy if there were more people here with specific tiny sub-comunities like reddit. hell, there arent even big fandom pages here...
There is just a lot less noice on Lemmy. Reddit feels like 1 legit post for every 100 shit post.
I love chatting with people that are generally more reasonable and kind. Random viciousness seems absent here in my experience.
All ways.
Is the most concise answer "Every"? Personally, it is the profound absence of actively sponsored gathering for the village idiots.
Reddit banned my 10 year old account because they flagged it as a ban evasion account, stupid cunts.
I'm new to lemmy as a whole, So time will tell.
Reddit is intolerant against atheists. You can't speak out againist the pain, suffering, hate, murder, slavery, and genocide from world religions without people in those religions reporting you for hate speech.
Bluesky is just as intolerant against atheists.
Religions and the religious make up stealth blasphemy laws, when they can't directly implement them. They don't want people pointing out how their religious hate hurts everyone, it makes them look bad.
Somehow, Lemmy is the best choice for speaking out against these hateful religions, and the hateful people that support them.
Not so sure that would be very different here
It seems however that Lemmy is pretty anti religion
the difference is that there isn't just one instance of Lemmy that bans you from the entirety of Lemmy. Antisemites are free to make their own instances as are israelites or communists.
Sure but some instances like to defederate, so you get cut off from the rest
most federate on a blocklist not an allowlist
Defederate auto corrected to federate
Fixed it
In the short time iv actively actually used Lemmy.
Iv learned it's incredibly anti Ai, pro communism and hates religion with a burning passion.
But it also almost always is .ml instance users being the most vocal users on every post i see.
Iv just gotten to the point when I see .ml I assume it's some jaded asshole who hates everyone else. As they always do the thing I see religious people do and just dog pile anyone who disagrees with them.
But one of the healthiest things iv done for my mental health on here is literally never read any replies. If I naturally come across a reply during a rereading of a post I'll respond but other wise.
I literally do not read any reply. I also delete most of my comments after a little bit.

Lemmy over what?
