Pretty new to the lemmy thing. Learning the do not and safe zones of the federation.
Lemmygrad is a bit of a rabbit hole from the outside view. Like, holy shit. That place got wicked dark super fast.
Lemmy really seems to be full of landmines. A lit of people here have no filter at all. I guess that's one of the downsides of having many instances with vastly different rules interacting.
@random65837 @Wage_slave Oh, Reddit had some truly terrible subs over the years. It feels to me like they only started cleaning up the site pretty recently. There used to be a lot more overlap with 4chan/8chan, and thatβs where many banned subreddits went when booted.
I don't even know how to get on other instances. I'm on lemmy world and that's it. I think. Its confusing.
By being on Lemmy World you are also automatically on any other instance the server federates with. That's the neat part, you don't have to worry too much about it as a user.
And you are automatically excluded from any instance LW doesn't federate to.
