A rookie mistake.
I started out on sh.itjust.works but then they federated with hexbear and I noped the fuck out to .world
It seems like there's 2 types of admins on Lemmy
Nazis and tankies
I suppose community building, detached from geography, is bound to be done primarily by highly motivated advocates.
Maybe that's pessimistic, I dunno.
I've tried to join at least five different instances but .world was the only one I got a response from.
I refuse to join any instance that makes me write a fucking essay about whatever political or social thing the admin has strong feelings about.
Jeez, which ones do that?
.world asked me no questions.
.ml asked me 3 questions. Two of the were: Which communities would you use most? And why do you want to join?
So I did everything they asked of me but they never responded. Was not able to get into that one.
