Does the instance a user is on (visible after their username) affect how they are perceived, either positively or negatively, by you or others?

    They’re defederated on .world and probably some other lib instances. I moved to ml because I didn’t like the vibe on world, especially their rabid obsession with “tankies”

      I left once they started curating & collating lists of known prolific tankies so that they could share them amongst each other to tag each one every time they encountered them on Lemmy.

        Apparently as another poster pointed out hexbear.net isn’t there, or rather it redirects to chapo.chat when I checked it just now. No idea why they’d think that means it’s dead though. I was just pointing out the defederation as a possible source of their confusion.
