Midwest.social is "a Lemmy server for, but not limited to, leftists in the Midwest USA" according to the person running it. Head on over and join the conversation!

That's pretty much the short of it. Unfortunately, if a social media site proclaims itself to be a "free speech" platform, the inevitable end is that it will be filled with fascists. I had high hopes for Voat back when it started, too.

As for the communities and the fediverse, you probably should subscribe to the midwest.social STL and/or MO instances because they've seen a lot more activity. (Links you can subscribe to with your lemmy.world account copied again below.) If these ones on lemmy.world don't gain much traction I may set them to not allow posts and just keep them up as a redirect to the midwest.social instances.
