Just like Facebook, Friendica also has a sort of activity center where you can see all previous notifications. It was ~2 years ago when I first discovered Lemmy. Back then, .ml was the most active instance, with Beehaw on the rise as well. I remember I started by posting in non-political communities at first, and nothing bad happened. But the moment I started to show them how brainwashed I was by Western Imperialist propaganda (sic), they immediately resorted to downvoting all my posts and comments like crazy - be them political or not. Below there’s a screenshot with my beloved Russian Government shill living somewhere in the West, Yogthos gave me a downvote (dislike) to a post I did in a test community. Don’t even know why they bothered, since neither Lemmy and especially Friendica do not have imaginary points for activities on posts and comments. But there’s that, lol.

      I am on their piefed instance, actually. They just dont want to alienate their userbase by shutting down their original instance.

        Oh, is it the same guys running the Piefed?

        I will be moving on from everything Lemmy associated. I don’t want to be connected to those wannabe fascists in any capacity. I just don’t use social media enough to care right now. I’ll browse Lemmy a couple times a day, when I am in the bathroom or waiting in a line or whatever, but it rarely gets much more out of me than a spare minute here and there, so I haven’t really cared enough to put time and energy into decided where I am making the jump to.

        Maybe I just swap over to the Piefed instance and be done with it.
