Wait… that’s what ml stands for??? I got here because it advertised itself as being for opensource software enthusiasts haha

I don’t know much about Lemmy and I’m new here, but on Mastodon there seem to be just an illusion of federation because it’s actually ruled by peer-pressure. Instance A doesn’t like instance B so it defederates from it (absolutely fair), then it goes and tell instance C to also defederate from B else its going to tell instance D, E and F to defederate from C, and so on… remember when people bullied mastodon.lol admin into closing his 18k members instance just because he didn’t want to ban users for liking the Harry Potter game?

I feel like the Fediverse has even more thought police than regular social media.
