lemmy.world had difficulty handling new account registration when I tried moving from Reddit in June 2023, so I tried to find/join other instances. People said “it doesn’t matter which instance you join.”
Oh it definitely mattered.

How, exactly?
Top to bottom single topic. Nothing else matters, nothing else discussed, nothing else happens, no thought, just despair, hate and circlejerk in what used to be ideologically diverse communities with some inherent contrarianism and debate.
That’s… what? Can you point toward a non-tankie triad Lemmy community where this has happened?
Last time I bothered to check, worldnews looked like that on .ml, also happened to r/Chomsky.
“Tankie triad” refers to Lemmy.ml, Hexbear and Lemmygrad. I was asking if there are Fediverse communities not on these instances that went through this. My instance is defederated from the triad so I can’t verify what you’re saying otherwise. If it’s such a widespread problem, there should be communities on, say, dbzer0 where the same thing happened.
There were places around the election getting flooded with reasons why Kamala was somehow worse than Trump at all the thing he said he’d do. I think one or two news communities had revolts.
Sorry, I only know the piracy community in dbzer0.
I personally don’t like using left-right terminology because it doesn’t have a place in my country.
But leftists tend to die due to purity. If you’re not 100 percent on board with current thing, then you’re out.
