I feel like I’ve formed some sort of faithfulness towards dbzer0 and have a bias towards subs and users of my instance. Anybody else in the same boat?
I just have biases against other servers. For example, .world users tend to act a lot like redditors which I dislike.
.ml users are more likely to tell me about the glories of communism than any other discussion. Yeah I get it, the ml stands for Marxist-Leninist, great job guys.
.dbzer0 folks are more likely to profess the greatness of FOSS solutions and discuss Linux distros, but I’d rather have that conversation over and over again because it’s usually pleasant and I learn something new every time.
And here I am, just picking a local instance to support my fellow Canadians.
… what are your biases against me? 😅
It’s interesting to see this in open discussion, as it’s something I hadn’t realized I did, but I do.
How many of us just picked the server because we wanted “popular, but not the most popular”? I imagine that attracts a type.
I’d want “bullied hexbear so hard they defederated out of shame” to be our bias if we get to choose. It’s always okay to punch bully a fascist.
Wait, they defederated from us? I thought I was noticing less of their… uh… content around.
Yup, that was me. Popular enough to stay around, not so popular it’ll get overrun by noobs coming from Reddit.
I feel like it still kinda got overwhelmed due to some instability a month or so back, but it’s been pretty good. I might go elsewhere eventually since it’s getting pretty popular (may even make my own instance), but for now, sh.itjust.works.
Honestly the sh.itjust.works instance is pretty on the level. I don’t find too many antagonistic folks on the instance and the conversations tend to be pretty varied depending on the community. I’ve seen you guys mostly around video game subs.
I picked this instance because the name wasn’t too serious and at the time, it was similarly popular as .world.
I’m really happy I chose shit because world became too popular in my opinion, and the admin here is pretty cool
I don’t even know what ml stands for
I just joined this instance as this was maintained by Lemmy devs(I joined before reddit’s enshitification)
Yes
Considering slrpnk.net is very niche, and catering to those with a certain mindset, I absolutely do feel some camaraderie with fellow instance-members.
Outside of my instance I think slrpnk is one of the coolest. I like all of the efficiency being discussed for being more in tune with the planet and the environment rather than being at odds with it. I get tired of hearing “fuck cars” though. I like 15 minute cities as much as the next guy but I already live in suburban sprawl and it’s not going to go away, so please don’t tell me that my enjoyable automobile is evil.
Not really. I did for a while on Mastodon but then the one I picked announced it was going to shut down. So I left
Sh.itjust.works has the best damn users in the fediverse. We should have inter-instance contests so we could whoop you guys. Our AI art team is ranked first in the Fediverse.
Does that answer the question?
Ofc your AI art is ranked top, can’t do the real shit can you. Even your instance name reeks of mediocrity.
(I’m sorry i’m new to shit talk and feel rude saying that)
Lol all good. It’s hard for me to talk shit about dbzer0 so we can just call it a stalemate. I appreciate your loyalty to your server because I feel similarly about mine.
Hey wait have we been having a conversation in 2 different posts.
Edit: several threads apparently lol
