They'll go back to Reddit in a few weeks. Imagine thinking Redditors can pull off even a slacktivist version of a general strike. These are people whose entire lives revolve around fascile dopamine hits.
- Yeah, that's what I'm expecting as well.
yeah, uhh...
- It's the neolib central of the fediverse
  
  Can you help me understand how the whole fediverse thing works? It seems more decentralized than reddit.
They're still as bloodthirsty as ever lol
I feel like reddit moved in next door.
- Basically, it's a really good reminder of where the mainstream views are in the west right now.
- The neighbour from hell.
lemmy.world, lemmygrad, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, lemmygrad, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, beehaw, slrpnk, beehaw, lemmygrad, beehaw, beehaw, ...

I'm beginning to sense a pattern here
- I'm new to Lemmy. Is beehaw a right-wing/conservative oriented instance? Or is it just libs being libs?
  
  it's a liberal instance, so right-wing
- Sounds like Lemmy should do to Beehaw as Beehaw has done to us. For the sake of the space the developers have created.
  
  fortunately, we can't see content from Beehaw on Lemmygrad since they blocked us, but lemmy.ml probably won't blacklist it
Not surprising. It was inevitable from the moment the floodgates opened
- As one of the people who just got here, I do kind of like that lemmygrad seems kind of closed off from the rest. Because lots of "leftist" places back on Reddit would eventually be taken over by SocDems or Libs once they got big enough, so just having a place where they just wont go seems nice. Dunno if brigading by libs is a thing that happens often here though? Haven't been here long enough to know.
  
  Oh they're here. They're to us in our spaces as MAGA is to mainstream neoliberal spaces - they invade to sabotage, they seek to destroy. We could move to Mars and they'd send space drones with propaganda blasting from speakers.
  
  There's a very conscious effort from the radlib cliques to close off lemmygrad
  
  Back when the ledditor tsunami began, there was one person who wandered into a thread on lemmygrad, started complaining about lemmygrad, then started flinging shit at everyone who responded to them. It was kind of amusing to watch tbh.
  
  GreenAndPleasant managed this by creating a breakaway sub, GreenAndExtreme - the idea being that it was a pipeline, get the libs interested in Pleasant and radicalized in Extreme. Didn't really work, then they managed a proper crackdown on libs in the main sub.
  
  It is kind of nice to not encounter so much froth.
  
  I'd assume the verification system helps with that a little bit
- indeed
Reddit is suspending third party apps at the end of the month, so there's currently a mass user migration. Makes sense.
- radlibs mad
