My humble takes on the most popular Lemmy instances, or “how to piss off the whole Fediverse with a single meme”.
Here are the links to each one of the mentioned instances:
| Far Left | Centre Left | Centre Right | Far Right |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lemmygrad | Exploding Heads | ||
| Hexbear | Lemmy.ml | Lemmy.world | |
| Beehaw | Pricefield Lemmy | Based Count | sh.itjust.works |
| Blåhaj Lemmy | Divisions by zero | Lemmy NSFW | Hack Liberty |
Small instances is the best way to enjoy the fediverse. You get to sit on the sidelines, laugh at the losers that get caught in defederation drama while remaining able to access every community on every instance.
I’m not saying that you should necessarily move here, there’s plenty of other instances out there. Howeeeeeever… ;)
Im on lemm.ee, where do we stand? Idk who we defederated tbh
I feel like lemm.ee is dead center, or maybe a little left of center because of explicitly prohibiting far right-wing instances. Because of the admins’ policy of defederation being the last resort, lemm.ee is pretty much open to most.
As I said I didn’t know much about lemm.ee but that policy is tremendously based.
I made this tool just yesterday to check that. Don’t try to use it, it’s currently broken because too many people used it and dried up my free use quota.
Anyway, IIRC lemm.ee hasn’t been defederated by anyone. You can see who they have defederated over here. There’s Meta threads, a few porn instances as well as a bunch of other lemmies I don’t really know. Maybe they’re spam instances, idk.
I knew that tool was going to rocket to popularity. Simple QoL things like that that Lemmy needs.
In a parallel universe, you’d be swimming in gold and platinum coins kind stranger lol
Thank you, I really appreciate it. Meanwhile, in this universe, I might have to pay $20 just to keep the lights on lol.
I actually quite enjoy seeing some instances push to compete and take “customers” away from other, especially larger, instances. It’s almost like market forces are possible
