We are small, but Lemmy is something that no business can take away. I have faith. Been here for a while and happy to see new faces.

MODERATORS
I have to say, that is one hilariously fantastic way to wish ill on a group of people.
Welcome to Lemmy!
Ive seen the same thing reported on Lemmy.
Moderators need to be careful to not fall into the same trap.
Some home countries that host many of the instances on lemmy have pretty rigid rules for what constitutes promoting violence. Many of the mods/admins are just doing what they can to ensure the lights stay on by removing posts/comments that violate these rules.

Well, an unpaid job that involves exercising power over others is always going to attract insufferable, self-important people. It's why I say they're the same people who run HOAs. Just petty little power trippers. I mean, if it ever gets bad, one can always start one's own instance, make competing subs, and make them off limits to the offending mods. Odds are good they'd be driving the members away as it is.
GG Allin possession is a great note to leave on, congrats!
I just wanted something different so I came here. Also trying to fedi my fun and leave old services that have been enshittified.
Welcome! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@lemmy.world and !astronomy@mander.xyz . !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We have Tankies here too, but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. On .world instance you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them
Hehe, I actually joined my instance in no small part due to it already having taken anti tankie countermeasures. Don't need those people buzzing around like horseflies, I had a tankie father and my patience for that shit is basically zero.
Thanks for the recommends, neighbor!
Ugh. Another goddamn September.
(Big /s. I'm happy people are leaving the pigboy.)
