I wasn't sure where to ask so I chose here. The other day I saw a post encouraging people to spread the load on lemmy.world and jump onto other instances.

I've decided to take one for the tea and do it even though my account is like 2 weeks old 🫡

However, how do I find physically local instances? In the post mentioned above someone gave a link that shows some sort of a map(?) where such information could be found. Could someone hook me up with it please?

Alright Mr Outraged, just because you got here a week before others doesn't mean the the new comers cannot ask about Lemmy and his it compares to Reddit. In fact the numbers are expected to rise. So good luck blocking posts and people on daily basis for weeks and months to come.

Aka, don't be a jerk to new comers that have questions. Jeez.

I know we are encouraged to create content on Lemmy... But based on the quality of your post and the effort I think we will be better off if you continue only lurking.

Why would he not want to say the reason though? If that was the case, the OP could just say he is a shy pooper. Instead we now suspect that this is some kind of orgy with a fetish.

I am loving the app but the only thing that I am missing or not sure how to do is to find out what particular comment a reply is refering too.

I used to use Infinity for Reddit and you could click on the reply to see individual comment thread that this reply was related to.

It's this actually true though? I always had to add Reddit at the end of the search query as it always gave me some shit websites as sources otherwise.

People see more drama than it actually is. We all still come from Reddit mindset but fragmentation is a feature not a hindrance.

I am not here to show Reddit my middle-finger. I am hear because I like what fediverse stands for and if the price is smaller communities, so be it.

It's a new era. The fragmentation is a feature not a problem.

All I needed to know form this is that I can block and unsubscribe from all beehaw communities and look for new ones hosted on other instances. If I ever want to see beehaw stuff I will create an account there. For now, I am happy I am part of lemmy.world as I am not a fan of heavy moderation. As long as there is a way of downvoting, I have absolut trust in the community to regulate itself.

In fact, this is a big problem for me in beehaw. They took away the power for the community to self-regulate by removing downvoting and instead want a centrally moderated and controlled "safe space". Which is fine for some I guess but definitely not for me. If I see trolls, bigots, etc. I just downvote and move on. Some people get affected way more about it than others I guess.

Yeah, although they didn't provide any data to back it up. I've been using lemmy.world for a few days and didn't see any harassment whatsoever.

I am alsot wondering. I have a feeling that most devs are silently supporting the protest. Also, aren't the leak led memos of Spez suggesting that there are people there sympathetic to the cause?
