  • Lemmy.ml seems to have a clone of most of the “top reddits”, somehow the most subscribed communities out there, and all dominated by one or two posters who post pro-China/pro-DPRK/anti-Western content all day long.

    It definitely is going to confuse newcomers and make a bad first impression. I wonder if they auto subscribe people to those so their propaganda ends up at the top of the communities list.

    Part of the solution is to better inform new users the part of the community name is the host, just like Main St in one city is different from Main St in another city. You choose the city you want to live in first.

    But, it may also be interesting to have the ability for admins to selectively merge like-named communities with other agreeable instance admins, and count subscribers to both as one group.








  • The talking points I’m picking up are:

    • this isn’t a real war, we were in and out with precision munitions, and our people are back safe, everyone should praise them for being so awesome;

    • Iran has been a bully for decades, and somebody needs to punch the bully in the mouth, when that happens everyone stands back and is happy the bully got punched in the mouth;

    • this isn’t a new war, Iran has been at war with us and our allies for a long time via their proxy groups

    • Biden was never able to take care of business, now Trump is in and it’s taken care of, and only the Americans could’ve done it because of our awesome military technology.
