It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.
I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.
Every time people are reminded that they are in control of their own experience here, they downvote and reply, “no! I want to control your experience too!” What a terrible attitude to have.
Yeah, I joined VLemmy.net because they do not defederate with anyone and the admin made this post. Specifically the part where they said:
The great thing about the fediverse is that you can join a site that caters to what you want, or if it doesn’t exist you can make it yourself.
I think I need to make an account there.
