The first 6-12 months here (during/right after the Reddit API drama) were great. After that....not so much.

Note: Edited to add to the title and replace the image link with one that won't be going offline in 2 weeks.

On the left: Rick and Morty after going through detox with the caption "Fediverse users who are here because they want to be here". On the right are the toxic leftovers of the other RIck and Morty with the caption "Fediverse users who are here becuse they've been banned everywhere else"

    Yeah I'm in the same boat. Though I will say, I have no personal experience of the stress and burden of running an instance myself. Especially one where the admins are actively trying to cultivate a non-toxic environment. That workload and the toxicity it exposes you to must be hell.

    Personally I've had almost entirely positive experiences here, up to and including currently. But I stay out of politics, I've curated my subscriptions carefully and I never browse /all.

    Is there really that much sports on Lemmy? For the longest time it seemed completely barren. Even now Soccer is just having stable but very minor activity. Formula 1 is fairly active though I guess.

    And that just sounds like too much work. Much easier to see what you want to see on /subscribed and then put the phone away.

    Most of the furry and anime porn is on a dedicated instance, just block that and you're done.

    No, just the posts, I don't think you have the ability to block comments from one instance.

    And if an entire instance is dedicated to NSFW content, the chances of missing something good are slim to none.

    I use Boost, I'm not sure if it's an app feature or a platform feature.
