Is there a way to shop around for a Lemmy instance based on how many instances are blocking it and how many instances it’s blocking? For example, I noticed that the lemmygrad.ml instance is relatively popular, but it seems like a lot of other instances block it. It also blocks a bunch of other instances. So, if there are any communities on there that might be relevant to me then I would be missing out. I guess I could just create an account on a walled instance, but I would prefer not to keep creating accounts. I’d like to just find one instance that maximizes my access. Is the answer to just run my own instance?

    It’s fine to be offended that they called you propagandised, but that doesn’t make it less offensive to immediately say the same thing back to them. You are both insulting each other, it’s not helping the Lemmygrad situation.

      There is no “lemmygrad situation”, it’s gaslighting lemmy by liberals getting wind in the sails with reddit refugees and attacking us all the time. note this basically didn’t happen at all before, they just blocked us and maybe badmouthed in their dens, i don’t care, i;m not going there. The arguments we had on lemmy were heated but not resembling current offensive.

        I need to tell you something. You need to bear the patience of a saint with these liberals. If someone does not explain them, they will keep acting as state propaganda parrots. Its not too helpful to get right back at them, considering how unhinged and toxic they can act. You will lose everytime in shit slinging competition.

          I appreciate the advice, but I have gotten the same talk from Muad before. This is me being patient and not slinging shit!

          I’m specifically trying to get to the meat of the argument without wasting a lot of time effort-posting primary source essays no one will read.

          I think it’s worthwhile to show the disparity between the liberal worship of polite debate and their actual actions.

            No, if you do the same thing as liberals, you being banned will be a further loss than the current position that favours them. Although I cannot disagree with the approach of taking some hits to expose their grift, something I have done for Lemmy for 3 years, you need to be cautious against drawing such cards against most of these decoys.
