This is jsut kind of what happens if you dip into random posts on thr global feed. There is a mix of generalist Lemmy sites that expect people to behave like they're on Reddit, and everything's just a free for all, and insular sites that are focused on a narrower community, operating more like independent forums.
Stepping into one of these spaces, and treating it like a big, open one is going to get you tossed on your ass like you're DJ Jazzy Jeff in an Uncle Phil convention.
You need to be aware of what community you are engaging with around here, because it might not want your participation. That is not power tripping, that is just being unwelcoming.
Exactly this. And some of these communities have very good reasons for being insular in order to protect specific goals they have established.
I don't use the global feed, only subscribed and sorting by scaled - always.
All of the communities I've been banned from I'm a long-time subscriber and lurker in with a genuine interest in the subject matter, or I wouldn't look at them in the first place.
