Hi! In thinking about how to help the fediverse grow, I wonder if there are more mainstream Lemmy instances?

I've pointed a couple folks to Lemmy.world and it's uhhh, pretty hard Left for them (as one girl, who volunteered for the Democrats said "I just got yelled at because I can't be Left wing unless I want to destroy capitalism? Which feels weird.") We're much farther Left than reddit which itself was definitely Left of centre...

I don't know if decentralized open source social media actually attracts many mainstreamers but assuming we want to grow the fediverse, I'd like to have somewhere I can point people to without feeling very nervous for them.

Thanks!

Whatever you need to think to excuse fascists for being fascists, I guess.

If you gave a flying fuck about fighting fascism youd self reflect to figure out how we got here. You won’t. You’re lazy.

Your tone definitely makes me want to take your advice.

Aww look at the lib shit tone policing!

You're free to take whatever tone you want. Tone aside, I see that all you ever really do is rant about "libs" and blame everyone for fascism except fascists.

This does not make sense.
