Murdoch Outlets and Bezos’ WaPo Demand More Sympathy for Health Insurance Execs
Many news outlets’ pontificators were incensed that anyone would voice frustration with health insurance when an industry CEO has fallen.
You're viewing a single thread.
Kinda off topic, but I wish more of these posts were not on the .world instance. They seem to be giving into the censors and becoming more reddit-like over time.
Very on topic imo
Get off .world yall
As someone that started on Lemmy post Reddit, I found .world to be the most up front and easy to sign up for. I would love to change off of world but I'm not sure the best alternatives or ways to find them? Do you have any recommendations?
join-lemmy.org has a list of instances you can join. If you just want to look through a list that's a great place to browse.
If you're looking for specific recommendations I'd say lemm.ee is great in terms of moderation, they don't overmoderate and tend not to defederate from many places so users can kinda choose themselves whether or not to block an instance. Dbzer0 is similar, it's the instance with the big piracy community which .world blocked, and the admin is also great.
Both of those are in the top 10 communities in terms of size though iirc, which ideally people would avoid the biggest instances and join smaller ones to try and prevent centralization like what happened with .world communities.
Lemmy.zip is also great from what I've heard, and while it's not small, it's top 20 instead of top 10 at least.
Wow that's spot on the kind of information I was looking for! You're incredible, I appreciate it!
Copying my comment from elsewhere :
You can export your settings, subscriptions, blocklists then import that file on your new instance in your settings. Post/comment history won't copy over but at least you don't start over from scratch.
Do you happen to know if there is a way to port comment history to a new account yet, please?
Unfortunately there's no way to do that yet
Thanks. Hopefully at some point that can be a thing :)

Depends on what your interests are but I’d avoid creating an account or a community on .world (too dominating, and lately are corpo bootlickers, also power tripping mods), .ml (power tripping admin), hexbear (highest troll ratio, active attacks on other instances). There’s good folk on all those but there are big issues w each imo.
I’ve got several accts on different instances. Each have their quirks. Like some don’t allow downvotes or different words, and others are federated or defederated with other instances I wanna see or avoid on occasion
slrpnk.net resonates with me as I work in trying to help the world become more sustainable
The first days of the rush to the fediverse were chaotic, it wasn't ready for such demand. One of the things lacking was an easy portal to help new users figure out what would work best. The .world instance for whatever reason became the more visible one as more people joined.
You've got a few replies to consider - don't forget that there aren't just Lemmy instances that see federation, there's also Mbin (a fork of Kbin) that's has a different feel to it and can see Mastodon blogs too.
I too would like an answer to this. I started on a much smaller, more local instance, but it would always crashing as soon as I started scrolling. Like every single time I used it. Switched to .world and it's never happened once.
Sopuli.xyz is a great medium sized instance ran by solid admins, highly recommend.
Feel free to crosspost!
