Jerboa's last update fixed alot for me. It is pretty annoying to open the app and see a bunch of post about lemmy. Kind of like opening Minds and half the posts are people circle-jerking to the fact that they are on Minds. Like, cool, I'm here too.. now why am I here? Post something interesting.
While we are at it, why do I see 2-3 year old posts in my stream?
I am glad that i realised I could just block the tankies instead of arguing with them
I've yet to see a single tankie here, but I think the instance I'm on has defederated from a bunch of instances so that might be why
Nope, not blocked. There's not actually that many of them, but they were one of the few established communities on Lemmy before the reddit explosion so I think they were disproportionately visible until everyone else started organically out-posting them.
My only question is if they’re tankies then why even leave Reddit? That’s like a stoner moving to a state where weeds legal then leaving because there’s too much weed.
Because free software aligns with leftist ideals?
Leftists aren’t tankies. Tankies are specifically pro USSR.
A pro authoritarian state. That’s why they are called tankies after all lol.
I think this is a matter of all tankies are leftists but not all leftists are tankies.
