If my other admin wants to add anything to this, please do so in the comments below. Basically, we are a free-speech instance, but all crazy and controversial comments and posts will be limited to the dank, microwave taco and dank memes going forward with special considerations given to the Donald’s community. We want a functional website and I think in all other communities aside from the ones I’ve listed above, we should have civil discussion and good faith conversation. If people go into communities that are not designated for crazy and controversial posts and start drama, then you will be banned from that community, but not banned from the instance.

    Refederation is never going to happen

    The only thing that will happen is that you are going to keep attracting more and more of the same or worse people.

    There are plenty of instances with normal content that provide users with everything they are looking for without having to deal with posts you can find on dankmemes and freeform.

    You are filling such a small niche that there aren’t even going to be other instances you can link up to with the same “values” they will just gravitate to this one.

      So where is the problem? I already have 17 accounts distributed over multiple instances. With the Mlem App I can switch with a simple click. There are tons of instances still federated with a minority of other instances, while still not making use of Email registration.

      The feddiverse is flexible. And we are not blind to karma or other corporate jokes.

      Here we are free. And so are you. It seems like you also have a place here.

        I didn’t cover “a problem” I laid out how it is and how it’s going to be. Admins and some others on here seem to have some kind of hope about federating with the big instances again. But that is never going to happen.

      Like you?

      If this place is so irrelevant and obscure why do you dedicate so much of your life to it?

        Yes I can imagine it took you half a day to come up with this response and then type it all out but that’s not true for everyone, smoothie

          You can maybe imagine that, but I limit my entire social media to half an hour every few days. Pop in, respond to comments, then post in a few threads and off again.

          What a great contribution you are to the site. I guess you’re right, we should get rid of everything you might even slightly consider “hate” so that we can have more contributors of your quality.
