When I signed up for Lemmy, I didn’t know about some wars that existed between instances, and when I chose lemmy.ml I thought, “Why not?”. Tbh, dont think too much about instances.
I signed up because I wanted to get the full Lemmy experience, but I don’t know if some instances block the instance I’m connected , and this is a bit confusing for me. At the beginning, when I joined Lemmy, I remember reading that it is advisable to choose the instance carefully, and I even assume that it was my mistake, but I think it could be a little easier for those who enter the fediverse. I guess. Know nothing at this time.
So, the question is there. Do you judge members by instance? I’m just a normal guy; I don’t like the extreme right or extreme communism. In fact, I think all extremism is stupid. But , if you could enlighten me on this, I would appreciate it.
At this point, I don’t know if I’m blocked by some instances or not. Basically, I want to enjoy having the entire Lemmy experience, where I could read all types of content.
EDIT: during this time, maybe some people judge members because the instance. And I dont like that feel if someone think “oh look this dude, is from lemmy.ml, he is extremist communist, for sure”. However, I’m not. Im just a normal guy without any politic side.
this dont make sense for me, but I guess I need to understand your view. As I said, I dont think too much about the instance … And imo dont reflect nothing about me since this is just internet and dont reflect my thoughts. I can be what I want here, nobody knows if im lying or not. I can be one of the brothers of Bradd Pitt and probably some people believe on this lie.
Now I’m understanding some people have some wars between some instances and block some instances. At this point I’m more and more confused tbh. But yeah, ty for your opinion
It’s usually not that users block instances because only certain apps can do that. It’s just that not every instance federates with every other instance. In the case of lemmy.world you can go to lemmy.world/instances and scroll to the bottom to see which instances they don’t federate with. Not federating means that lemmy.world is not “listening” to these instances and as a lemmy.world user you’re therefor not hearing from those people either. If some other instance defederates lemmy.world it means that you can still see posts and comments from the users of that instance but they can’t see yours.
