I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. Itโ€™s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isnโ€™t too much going on. Itโ€™s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of

Voat people will have their own instances and their own communities. Which you don't have to participate in.

That doesnt prevent them people from making alt accounts. On reddit I had like 6, with the multiple instances here I imagine thats way more common.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So? What prevented them from making alt accounts on reddit and other corporate media?

Moderation, right?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They didn't? I said that in my comment I had 6 accounts. With the federated instances its way more likely for people to have multiple accounts. I already have 2 and I have been here 2 days.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right my point is, why do you care if they make alt accounts? It's the behavior that's moderated.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

my point is these guys are extremists and all they care about is forcing their viewpoint and belifes on others and find joy in when it makes them mad, thats how these people work. So if this site is full of them then the site is shit.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think that's the thing you're not getting. This isn't a site. It's a federation of independent networks, each with their own rules.

Have you seen any of that around? I haven't.

And that's irrelevant to my point, users can and will make accounts to view communities on instances that are blocked. Even if the extremists instances get blocked from the normal instances, they can and will make accounts on instances to view content that they otherwise can't and in the procces will continue trying to spread their shitty beliefs on people. And yes I have, look at my profile, I have ran into Mutiple extremists on lemmy.world alone, I think you are the one that hasnt been using it much.

I've already banned about 20 users from my communities trying to spread that toxic shit.

Hold on, so your issue is that people will in the future be using this software in a fractured federation? Why is that an issue? Like this already happened with tankies.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Okay im gonna just block you because im pretty sure you are one of them because you are just as dense as the rest of them, the issue is the types of people that are going to be circumventing it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think I've ever blocked anyone. Suit yourself.
