    I hope Lemmy doesn’t become overrun with reddit’s far-right psychos after reddit collapses.

      We can’t stop them from using Lemmy either. They’ll come.

      But this time we can defederate from servers that tolerate intolerance.

        Also encouraging our local instance admins who are or seem receptive to not tolerate the intolerant.

      Like Facebook, Reddit will probably just become a cesspool of conservative morons. I’m fine with them staying on Reddit. I don’t think it’s gonna “collapse” anytime soon.

      I imagine that many will flock to right-wing friendly instances that end up widely defederated. Most of them though will go back to 4chan and other similar sites.

        Exploding Heads is a Nazi instance that many people don’t even know about because of how defederated it is.

          Was, it’s no longer in existence currently. Many of them moved to Nostr, though some of their members came back to Lemmy and set up the hilariouschaos Lemmy instance.

      So long as the Israeli bot networks stay off of here. I don’t like how China is discussed here but it’s a function of the type of people this place attracts, i.e not fans of authority.
