  • Do as you want, but I wanted you to know your options!

    Speaking of, nothing needs to be permanent - just make an alt somewhere and check it out, and you can always keep your old account (you will ofc find yourself using it less, if you enjoy the new one better:-).

    Also, look at the Import/Export Settings section in your Settings menu for easier setup of your subscriptions and such.

    A lot of people are recommending lemm.ee these days, but there are so many cool options to explore, just don’t let that thought hold you back from doing anything at all.







  • I am fairly sure that the rest of the world already existed.

    No way - at least not back then! Source: am American, and therefore entirely confident that no other nations existed prior to my hearing about them (Christopher Columbus told me so! 😛). And maybe even then… which reminds me, are you so sure that you are real? Maybe you too are in America and just forgot? 🫠

    Also, just so we are clear, “American” = “USAian”, definitely no other nations exist on the American continent, nope, no way! (Except Canada and Mexico, and they get a pass as wannabe USA states) 😜










  • Tbf, [email protected] is there but nowhere else, if you needed updates on Federation software (remember that link will show no posts for you bc you blocked it, but you can click through to see it from another instance including its original one).

    And some other communities there are quite large such as Firefox.

    Though I still blocked the instance regardless - the trade-off of having to deal with those users just wasn’t worth being able to keep those few communities.

    Edit: and occasionally I do see good comments from people on that instance, such as the person you responded to - those users aren’t universally bad, nor are they the only source of such (lemmy.world is now probably my biggest one these days, surely only bc it’s so large and kind-of a default instance). Still, I am enjoying my experience on the Fediverse now that the vast majority of trolling is cut out:-).
