    I am proud of Lemmy.ml for defederating. The second I find out if kbin social or lemmy world defederate or not I will just move to the other one since I use both. (Edit turns out Lemmy.ml is run by Tankies and also allows federation with lemmygrad.)

      The admins/devs are communists, they hate anything corporate related, so it’s no surprise.

        Tankies is a word that better suits them imo. I consider myself a socialist, but those guy are fucking defending the CCP (chinese comunist party) and are very trigger happy with the banning switch. So yeah, i dont think this is a win but more like bussines as usual.

            No, I’m not going to ghost. Your comment is low effort and unintelligent, actually. Communists are not necessarily “anti-corporation.” That’s your first mistake in your comment. The rest requires some reading on your part and a little more engagement with intellectual activity you seem to not be able to do. You asked, I answered. That’s as much as you’re going to get out of me. Am I a communist? No. But I’m smart enough to know that you aren’t educated enough to discern communism from socialism, or even to understand political ideologies in general. In fact, your ideology clouds your judgment so much that you think simplistically and make a low effort comment such as “they are communists, they hate anything corporate related.” Study some political science, read some books and educate yourself, then come back and make comments that are less low effort and more informed. Or, just be like everybody else on the internet and say low effort one liners like you already seem to enjoy doing.

                I was aware. I type really fast so it looks like that, doesn’t it, that I was talking to you as if you made that comment? And yes, I am very intelligent. I am so intelligent that I notice you have nothing else better to do than this. This is your idea of fun.

          That works for me as well… and most of lemmygrad.ml, but no one ever visits that place, people just talk smack about it based on a few users and posts 🤷.

      Exactly. This is why federation is cool. The individual can choose where to go. Oh, kbin and lemmy.world, you didn’t defederate from the corporate shills? OK then, I shall defederate myself from you. Plenty of instances.

      Lemm.ee is another big-ish general purpose instance that looks to be in favour of preemptively defederating after some polling and discussion there today, in case Kbin.social and lemmy.world continue to stay silent.

        I will have to check that out. I tried lemmy.ml but found out it is run by tankies. So I deleted my account there. Lemmy.world are trying a wait and see approach which I think is a bit naive giving metas reputation. But at least they are against Tankies. As for kbin.social I have given the dev the benifit of a doubt since it is one person who works hard on kbin and most likely has not had time to comment on meta. I have faith that he will do the right thing and defederate from meta.
