MODERATORS
I learned the other day that beehaw blocks lemmy.world due to the amount of bad faith actors in that instance and it got me curious so I decided to block it in my settings last night. It's a bit of weird move for me personally as I've always been one to say that blocking should only be used as a last resort. But I wanted to make myself contribute to some of the smaller instances as I dislike how so much is centralized at LW.
Has anyone on here done something similar? I'm curious to hear other peoples thoughts on the matter.
Yeah, I've blocked lemmy.world and there are a lot fewer obnoxious users showing up. Less content as well, but not so much that I miss it.
Yeah, I've been browsing throughout the day and been liking it. You still get to see comments from users on that instance but it's a lot less noise so far.
I'm Lemmy.world and I can see you, odd .
I think it's a client side thing, so I can choose to reveal comments that .world lemmings make if I want. A user can't defederate unilaterally.
I've been considering it also lately. Either the instance grew or the userbase just changed somehow or maybe I only just noticed but LW just feels like it's culture is way shittier recently.
So many new users default to it so it just attracts all those newcomers and trolls. It's sad to do because there's a lot of good people and discussions on the instance. But more and more I just feel like discussions are becoming more and more annoying and a waste of time because it just leads nowhere. I don't mind the decrease in posts personally. I prefer quality over quantity personally.
A hundred percent so. Lots of people want Lemmy to grow but I think we're already huge, so much so I feel the need to trim some of the fat.
