[email protected] has been going great! We've over 1000 members which is a great result I never thought we'd get.
Me and the lovely @[email protected] are rejuvenating [email protected] a goth, punk etc community. That's only just started but hopefully it takes off.
I received a report that hilariouschaos is a neo nazi instance. (@[email protected], you probably received the same report)
Is this true, and if so, were you aware of it? I see a few conservative communities on the instance, but I don't have a sense of what the vibe is. What are the admins like?
Have a look at this thread, multiple users chiming in: https://lemm.ee/post/60635373
The Fediseer page have feedback from instance admins: https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/detail/hilariouschaos.com
Oh bloody hell
For reference, the shi.itjust.works discussion on defederating exploding-heads is a pretty good read: https://sh.itjust.works/post/564252
After a lot of instances defederated exploding-heads it looks like they shut down and went to nostr, but after a while a contingent returned and set up hilariouschaos. at first they weren't widely federating with others but then they started federating openly (though several instances defederated them):
Looks like lemmy.world and lemm.ee have not defederated hilariouschaos, though lemmy.world had previously defederated exploding-heads (not sure about lemm.ee).
I dunno, mixed feelings, still processing all of this.
Ty! Hoping so to!
Well done, and good luck with the new community!
Thanks bro 😃
