After this meta-post about a Lemmy instance got removed, I became curious: where are the communities that contain general discussion about the state of the broader Lemmy community itself?
The bigger communities I found when looking for Fediverse meta content are:
- !lemmy@lemmy.ml
(https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy) - !fediverse@lemmy.world
(https://lemmy.world/c/fediverse) - !fediverse@lemmy.ml
(https://lemmy.ml/c/fediverse)
But most of the communities are much smaller and less popular:
- !fediverselore@lemmy.ca
(https://lemmy.ca/c/fediverselore) - !lemmydrama@lemmy.world
(https://lemmy.world/c/lemmydrama)
Most of the "meta"communities I found were specific to a single server. Which is great for reporting server issues themselves, but not so great for understanding the broader community.
TL;DR where drama
e.g. ≠ i.e.
i.e. this was a good example of why i don’t like it…
point being, every meme on there is an anti-biden, anti-democrat, biden = genocide meme…
the fact that they’re already trying so hard to politicize this tragedy, is pretty gross to me… and then every time i find someone spamming like 500 “biden is the genocide” comments, the poster ends with lemmy.world
so, basically it has a very toxic userbase that is spamming the rest of lemmy with thinly veiled, pro-trump propaganda, and the mods are complicit.
this is my own observation, but other users have said as much… lemmy became instantly much better as soon as i blocked it.
hexbear also thrives on negativity, but they do have something to add, sometimes…
Which is exactly the kind of content I’d expect to see in a meta-Lemmy/Lemmy drama community, yeah
well, you could just make a community…
I think I’d probably join one of the five I mentioned above, versus making my own with hookers and blackjack. Mostly because I don’t know how to play blackjack.
I was initially prompting you for a link to a community, since it seemed you were familiar with one… Not an actual drama post right here.
