I'm a .ml because it was the second most popular instance when I joined, and I refuse to be bullied by other people tribalism to change to a different instance.

(Although that /s... if you tried to joke with me, then I'm sorry, I was/am too tired to understand it)

It's not that we think that everyone on a .ml instance is a bad person it's just that if you don't watch your back you end up talking to a bunch of people who think that mass murder and war crimes and acceptable as long as their friends are the ones doing it. And they are unfortunately also on .ml and to tar everyone with the same brush.

It's why a lot of instances are defederating which sucks for you of course because none of it is your fault.

I don't think any popular instances defederated .ml though?

[โ€“] Jayjader@jlai.lu 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

lemmy.ml, no, but I'm fairly certain that lemmygrad.ml has been defederated from lemmy.world at least, if not others.

Lemmygrad.ml has been defederated from Lemmy.world, dbzer0, blahaj, etc, but such defederations are one-way. Lemmygrad.ml doesn't block them, so Grad users can see all that content too.

I see, thanks for the correction.
