      I’ve got high hopes for Lemmy, and the Fediverse in general. Voat’s issue was it was a haven for fascists and fascist sympathizers, and a centralized site made that the general vibe. The federated model makes it so they can do what they want in their own little corner of shit, and the rest of us can ignore them like they deserve.

        I only worry about brigading. Where they plan to slowly infiltrate a small instance and in a flick of a switch the simultaneously try to take over, overwhelming the admin.

      I think there’s a decent chance it will. At the bare minimum, it already feels much better to me than voat ever did.

      The only issue I have right now is that reddit is a good source of technical answers. Kind of like SE without the dismissive, condescending douchebag attitude that seems to be automatic there. Every single time it sounds like they are replying to someone that is actively bothering them. Like dude, you came on the website, checked the forums, and decided to answer. I didn’t send you a text or some shit.
