Just saw a post on reddit alternatives and there was a comment inviting users to laguna.chat. I went and checked it out and the trending communities list included, 'jews did 911', 'killnirs', 'hitler was right', and 'Fuck Nirs'. One of the user accounts was u/HangNi***rs.

Hey Laguna Chat, get your shit together.

Edit: markdown defeated me again. I think you can figure out what those words are.

Looks like an instance someone spun up and never looked at again.

It clearly has no one policing content, or I'd hope someone would have flagged the shit porn on their support communities.

Just because anyone can start an instance doesn't mean everyone should.

It feels like s legal liability to start a instance and not police it. People could upload CP and you would be on the hook because you are the server owner and clearly did nothing to stop it.

Saw the bad content get deleted as I was checking it out. The instance looks clean now. Funnily enough, the top post is asking about sudden nsfw content, and one of the comments a gif of someone literally shitting.

Lmao I can't explain how or why but this is somehow comedy gold

Put backslashes before literal asterisks. \*

Are you sure it was https://laguna.chat ? I just glanced through the thread that is top of their homepage (Trump's latest indictment by a grand jury) and the comments were all against Trump. Other posts seem like normal Lemmy stuff, no insane right wingers yelling about space Jews that I could find

That post was on lemmy.world. If you look through Laguna's local posts, you'll see some... Interesting things. 0/10 not recommended.

The homepage opens on the "All", which shows stuff from outside the instance. Checking the "Local" shows a number of porn posts. Showing only commentaries instead of posts, the current newest one is a "porn" gif of a woman shitting on the floor.

Browsing from the web, the rest of the commentaries seemed to revolve around a user not being able to see outside communities. On the right, there were the shit communities OP mentioned that should be reported.

Yes, I'm sure.

They upgraded 5 days ago -- unless upgrades to automatic posts to a community....

Use the Block button. You have the tools to solve the problem. USE THEM.

[–] BuckRowdy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't generally block anyone on social media. I don't want to block racists and then not be able to report their racism.

[–] stevedidWHAT@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Should probably post some evidence for ease of information

[–] BuckRowdy@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

I was trying to but the instance was down.
