Honestly, I joined lemmy.ml first before really taking a look at the ideals of most of that userbase and I just do not agree with a large part of what they identify with.
Bounced around to a few other instances that all seemed… Idk not the right fit. But kbin so far seems much more my style and I finally now got an account created so we’ll see how it goes.
I’m curious what has turned you off here, since I’m very new. Reddit’s weirdly right wing political tilt has been turning me off for some time now, hoping that’s not the case here.
Also new, and I’m with you- reddit was always too full of right wingers for my liking. I also like this instance (lemmy.ml)and it seems to have a more left tilt, specifically when it comes to bigotry.
Is there any advantages to kbin over lemmy? php seems like a much worse tech stack for no benefit.

Why even bring up politics?

It looks like the Lemmy devs might have some IRL issues.

those are the admins of one instance. if you don’t like them, you can join another or create your own
Not if they’ve hard coded their censorship into the platform.

Really mad that I can’t say my favourite slurs on lemmy. Where can I be racist now?
That hasn’t been the case for a while now. It also never truly mattered, the code is available for you to modify.
