Happy to be here! I'm looking forward to my new home in Lemmy!
Welcome happy you're here! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz. !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a Reddit.org account so iirc you only need to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
Welcome to the fediverse, here is my anti-“tankie triad” copypasta spam.
How is an incessant pattern of instance harassment appropriate for !fediverse@lemmy.world?
You would warn newcomers about the Tankie Triad too if you had repeatedly seen all the stories of "I tried Lemmy, but it just seemed like a bunch of tankies, turns out it was just because I was on .ml when I tried it again"
There's tons more that never came back and go on life thinking Lemmy is Voat 2.0. I know this because there's plenty of comments on Reddit whenever Lemmy comes up about "it's just Tankies over there"
Yes, how dare I try to protect Lemmy's rep, I don't want to see this place become Voat 2.0
Whatever you say, Brigadier General Ripper.
Ah I get it now, you're most likely a .ml alt account, so goodbye!
Tankie definition: "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
