    Non-tankies on .ML getting upset at this:

    You might not be an idiot, but you’re wearing a T-shirt that says “I AM AN IDIOT” in bold letters across your chest. Maybe change your shirt. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      to better analogize this, you’re hanging around a nazi rally trying to find friends, and people keep calling you a nazi for some reason.

      Weird.

        As a Lemmy user I don’t care for this

        I feel like Lemmy has the reputation of being Tankie

          It’s a metaphor since tankies don’t seem to exist or make a difference in real life

      There are a few tankies on other instances. The difference is that they get in trouble when they act out.

      i’ve created this alt in the interim of finding a more permanent instance residence. Just got exhausted by the massive amount of shit they peddled over there.

        Lemmy.sdf.org is a good one with a “very light touch” attitude towards defederating instances of what you’re interested in

        Sh.itjust.works is also a good one with great admins I’ve heard (and also funny name)

            I’ve seen people say this, but haven’t actually seen it outside of one asshat who picked a fight with Beehaw a year+ ago.

            As a user I’ve had a pretty great experience personally.

              I’ve just heard from other mods that it can be a source of problems

              Could be the case of a vocal minority. The biggest complaints I have scene is that the instance admins allow whatever

        TODO: pedal vs peddle.

        I bet there’s not a gratuitous amount of bicycling going on over in .ml land, but I could be mistaken.
