Or do people think that Lemmy is a neutral, open-minded, safe community? Not like evil Reddit.

EDIT: Talking about mainstream instances like ml or world.

See examples of violent comments towards me and instead of mods removing their comments, they removed mine.

The comment that the all caps person was replying to was me saying that there are non-human targets. Users were assuming I want to kill people and turns out they are the ones that want to kill.

    What are some good non-mainstream, non-tankie instances that have a variety of communities and decent user interaction?

      I have an alt account on sh.itjust.works. It’s canadian based and they are pretty cool. For the variety of communities, you don’t really need to worry that much. The beauty of the fediverse is that we are all connected. As proof, I’m replying to a lemmy.world post from a piefed.social account while I browse the /all that shows me the entirety of the lemmy/piefed social.

        For sure. I subscribe to some of their communities. What I should have asked was which instances are not tankie echo chambers, and amongst those are there enough communities and activity.

          My suggestion stands then. sh.itjust.works is not a tankie echo chamber, they have activity and a good bunch of communities. Most lemmy is left-leaning tho, so you are going to see that political content tends to be left-leaning. But far from tankie-like.

            Yeah I’m good with left-leaning, just not so far left that they’re the same as the right. Thanks!
