I got front row seats at watching that community just degrade into full reddit lib territory. I remember when I first joined lemmy, and if I said I was a socialist over there it was taken mostly in stride. Now it’s just reddit.
For a period of time I kept a secondary lemmy account on .ml , mostly for posting on things we were defederated from, but I have more or less abandoned that account. It was bad for my blood pressure.
I’ve had my account on lemmy.ml for years now, and I also feel that it turned into a whole different community over the past few months. Now that hexbear is federating at least that keeps libs in check a bit. It’s pretty hilarious to watch the meltdowns they’re having over the fact that their view is no longer the majority.
some impressive brain rot in that thread, here’s another banger thread https://lemmy.ml/post/4384049
I see world news on lemmy.ml is indistinguishable from reddit now
Yeah, unless something make to the top feed on hexbear and they join, it’s cesspool identical to r/worldnews
pretty much yeah, I gotta say the meltdowns when hexbear joins in are absolutely hilarious to watch
