Unlike previous attempts at trying reddit alternatives (like Voat), kbin and much of the lemmyverse doesn’t seem to be plagued with extreme far right buffoonery. (kbin.social)

It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.

I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.

Through constant vigilance, anyways. Every time you see some little fuck dogwhistling about FREE SPEECH or CENSORSHIP, you gotta make sure they aren't welcome in these parts.

Exactly. I posted on a sub talking about the fact I thought the covid lock downs went too far (ironically enough I'm actually a junior doctor as well) and just from this one comment where I did not say anything remotely controversial immediately got banned from about 50 unrelated subreddits. Now I'm usually not too fussed but I just thought it was ridiculous that I can be banned from posting on r/cutepics or whatever because of one comment.

However I'm a bit worried with lemmy about the defederation thing and would like to know how it's different from this.
