Automod bugged out and banned me forever from reddit, i want to explore more Lemmy now but am not sure if Im missing anything good im not directly looking for–i am also kinda autistic and oblivious so if there are instances with a bad history or full of chuds or something a heads up would be swell
It sounds like you might be asking for communities rather than instances.
!historyartifacts@piefed.social
!Art_Alchemist_Guild@lemmy.today
These are some nice ones. Not all are always super active all the time but there’s usually some activity. I’ll update my list if I can think of more
Oops, I definitely am and did not realize I was using the wrong word :')
No worries, takes some getting used to when you’re new here :) If you look at my links its basically
communityname @ instance
But the question sort of works for instances too so since some might have more communities that you are interested in, that’s why people kept replying with instance suggestions. You can still see communities from wherever though as long as your account’s instance is federated with them
Just browse by /all…
When you see stuff you don’t like, block it.
When you see stuff you like, subscribe to it.

Honestly?
Just dive on in.
There’s a lot of places that are horrible, but don’t seem like it at first. But figuring it out for yourself is a learning experience, and isn’t just blindly trusting someone else who you don’t know.
Most instances have open modlogs, but there’s also accounts that weaponize that and ban people from communities they’ve never been in. What the modlog is very useful, is mod accountability. First time wandering into a new place, it doesn’t hurt to look at the log and see what type of vibe but has.
Most of the time the mods should be removing the “last straw” comment to preserve it in the log, then banning the account. However in practice most mods (even me, not throwing shade) will just click “perm ban” and “remove all content”.
Because none of this is actually that serious. If mods took it as serious as some users want, they burn out and crash out like that dude who built a hidden blocklist into his front end without telling anyone.
Can’t give too many fucks about this stuff.
I’m a problem masturbator.
Like you masturbating is the problem or you masturbate problems?
Correct.
We welcome you!
