Are the defederation campaigns the reason people call me lemmygrad? I only joined a month ago and people hate me for existing and not repeating their echo chamber.
edit: just noticed you said ‘deconfederation’, and idk if that was intentional but it’s actually 'defederation. Deconfederation makes it sound like it was a civil war (maybe that’s an apt description though…)
Yup. The use of ‘lemmygrad’, ‘hexbear’, ‘tankie’ (at least it’s frequent usage on lemmy.world) all stemmed from that tumultuous time just after the reddit migration where the various instances were fighting over politics. It’s a deep lore and maybe even a bit more complicated than I alluded to, but that period has definitely left its mark on the community.
Other instances are much better, but because lemmy.world is so large and their communities attract the most activity, they kinda set the tone for the whole lemmy/kbin activitypub implementation.
Even if simplified, thank you for explaining! I wonder if mastodon has had a similar thing happen … (I was never much of a Twitter user so I never became active). Like, is this a result of the fediverse in general or just something unique to Lemmy
I’m on both; this is a pretty lemmy-specific thing. I think it stems from people who migrated from reddit into a platform that was already being used by groups with a much stronger left-lean. If you’ve been on reddit you might be able to guess: they did not cope with that well.
Oh whelp yeah that explains it
