On a tangent, is it possible to block/ignore lemmygrad and it's users? They are obviously trolling here with good old whataboutism and russo talking points

Edit: corrected the stupid spelling of this stupid place

Heads up, I can assure you the Lemmygrad and Hexbear folks are not trolling. They are legitimate believers of Chinese/Russian/North Korean talking points, and some of them even live there

Welcome to the federated Internet

So real fascists taking over the biggest lemmy instance then?

Don't know what to think about Lemmy right now tbh. Most of the content is quite based, awesome, fresh memes, and especially the programming stuff js top notch.

But the amount of russo shit and antisemitism is on another level...

One reason why lemm.ee might not be the best newbie instance, most others have lemmygrad and hexbear defederated (read: blocked). You can block them yourself in your profile settings, or you can move to a different instance.
