There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!

Yep, that also works. Is CSAM blocked by sdf? I presume not if the blocklist is literally empty, but I'm not sure if that counts.
Blocklist is literally empty.
They federate with everyone, including the insufferable right wingers, the insufferable tankies, and the people who draw loli (I think there's only one lemmy instance still active that allows loli and it's the radqueer one, and it's tiny enough you don't notice it unless you go looking for it). Most of the insufferable right wingers have also closed their respective instances.
If their mastodon instance is any comparison, it still federate with everyone including the instances that post loli. I suspect if an instance were posting stuff illegal in the US that would be grounds for SDF to defederate for legal reasons, but 1A protections are broader than speech protections in most of the rest of the world.
You can always block the community or even the entire instance of anyone you don't want to see.

I gotta say, I respect what Lemmy does and hope it succeeds, and I think it's a good place for discussions and such (and I will remain), but good god if this place isn't unfunny as hell. I'm struggling real hard to find some place with actually funny content on here, which leads to me getting exceedingly riled up by politics.

It's better than it was a year ago so hopefully with more ex-Redditors it'll diversify even more

Fair enough, but I think you should just take care with that. Do a bit more research before jumping to insults that can be damaging to people's gender identity.
In the insane asylum we didn't care about genders, we were all shacked up together regardless of identity or sex at birth, no doors were allowed on rooms or showers or anything, so I'm not sure where I'd be insulting genders with that statement.

I will shitpost harder.
I'm doing my part!
Same. Someone’s gotta help feed the modlog.

calling an instance with a large amount of trans people an "insane asylum" is such a telling thing. Go back to reddit you abelist transphobe
I've been in an insane asylum before, we didn't have gender identity as part of the program there.. everyone was shacked up together regardless of gender or identity, no doors allowed on any rooms or showers or anything. No contact with the outside world, no internet, no TV, no movies, no music, no books, nothing allowed. I was just noticing similar behavior to all of us at the asylum, that is all, it had nothing to do with gender or trans people whatsoever as we never talked about any of that in the asylum either. But okay, friend, I hope you have a great day.

I mean, there are communities for funny stuff, but at least speaking of the ones I stumble upon on my main feed, a significant portion of the funny posts is rather old/recycled. Could be just my feed, though.

Luigi Mangione has not been convicted and is innocent until proven guilty.
Fair point

Referring to trans people as "insane" for being trans is transphobic, and a bit ableist. I'm not talking about your personal experience, but your presumably unintentional transphobia.

Unless there are communities I've missed, all the bigger communities post stuff one degree removed from advice animals. Maybe I need to look for the smaller communities

One of the problems with the way federation currently works is if I block US politics on one instance, I still get it en masse from other instances.
Before activity pub, all that duplication of threads would’ve been handled by moderators merging them together. Actually, it wouldn’t even have been so necessary since userscan see the existing thread and just post underneath that.
When blocking a community, we really need a check box to allow us to block the same community on all instances.

Same. Boost for Lemmy and Sync for Lemmy. Both awesome. Sync is my main, on the free plan.
I have Sync for reddit and sync for Lemmy on my phone, it's confusing as hell but I can't complain lol

I was referring to the posts, if you read my original comment I said nothing about trans or gender identity whatsoever. Hexbear when I signed up did not advertise itself as "trans only" or "trans centric" or anything gender related, so I was not aware. Please help me understand where you are getting those ideas. If anything it seems like if I consider a community similar to my behavioral health clinic experiences to be "transphobia" then you are insulting them as well. Again, we never discussed gender identity in the clinics.

Hexbear isn't "trans only," however according to surveys is about 50% trans/nonbinary, and is regularly pitched as one of the 2 largest trans positive instances, alongside Blahaj.zone.

Welcome!
If you're new, I definitely recommend checking out https://lemmyverse.net/communities for finding new communities to subscribe to, rather than just browsing "all". There are a lot of weird communities out there when you just browse "all"...
Block the weird communities if you dislike them so much.
