MODERATORS
This was a while ago, but I want to clarify,
I reccommended avoiding beehaw because its typically not what people are looking for out of lemmy. Don't get me wrong, they have a great community and its very well moderated, but its likely not what OP wanted.
I didn't reccommend hex, grad and .ml because of the tankies and because they are controversial and get defederated a lot. I have immense respect for hexbears defense of lgbt rights, but they probably aren't the best for your average lemmy worlder.
Thank you for clarifying but I think you go over the main topic a bit quickly. What does it mean "because of the tankies"? Who are the tankies and what have they done that is to be avoided by going to another instance?
Well, the people who are fans of authoritiarian regimes(like the soviet union), and are pro china/russia. Those instances specifically house those people, which leads to them getting defederated from major instances.
