Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I post quite a bit here but it feels so damn quiet. Why?

Is Lemmy.ml any good? I made an alt there a while ago but don't use it much

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 21 points 2 years ago

It's OK but really has a lot of rage bait and ban happy mods.

No, stay away unless you subscribe to Marxist-Leninist ideology. Alternative viewpoints (so the vast majority of people) will be strongly criticized at best and banned at worst.

They're not even really Marxists/communists, it's a facade for propaganda.

If you are a member of the Iranian military who has been tasked with pretending to be a trans-communist in effort to convert lgbt kids into the Islamic extremist fold, .ml is the place for you.

If you aren't that, it's probably unsafe.

You could consider Reddthat.com if you want down votes disabled like on Beehaw

It performs well and is connected with all of the instances with the most active users. migrating is pretty annoying on lemmy tho but was worth it for me.

performs well

It really does!

If you're trying to spread propaganda and silence people you don't want having a voice.

I cant say it's "good" but it's not bad. It's got some interesting discussion and the people are generally friendly. They have strong moderation so there is no hate speech or bigotry.
