OCR/caption below. It’s a post from a sopuli.xyz user saying that Lemmygrad is the worst Lemmy instance of them all, even ones carrying far-right terrorism, NSFL gore, and CSAM.


same, I’m on Sopuli and their Blocklist is pretty short but has the worst ones.

they are really, really bad and some are straight up illegal in some countries.

Mostly far-right ones, straight up terrorism (seriously there are people with RAF and other terrorist organization’s logos on their profile pics there), nsfl gore videos (like people dying and being tortured type of stuff), and nsfw ones full of underage anime girls in suggestive poses…

lemmygrad is probably the worst one out of all of them, just because of it’s [sic] size (tankie terrorist group)

Ah yes. There’s far-right terrorism, NSFL gore, CSAM, but it’s the commies that are “the worst one out of all of them.”

    I’d argue the drama is inherent. ActivityPub – and federalization/decentralization more generally – just surfaces it, and provides different groups of people with appropriate tools – muting, blocking, defederating – to curate their social graphs as they see fit, rather than ceding that control to a single centralized provider.

      This is a good point. This shit happens on Reddit and Twitter too, but when it happens there it’s a brief meeting at corporate HQ followed by a swift ban wave. The extended drama is a consequence of the fact that no individual holds that power.
