I learned just recently that dbzer0 has a great piracy community that is blocked by lemmy.world . I’m not saying I’m looking to switch instances or anything, but it did get me wondering what else might be blocked by my instance that I wasn’t previously aware of.
While we’re at it, I’m curious what communities might notably be blocked on other instances as well. So we might as well just make this a question about what might be blocked by any particular instance, not just my instance.
So, what’s blocked on some instances that folks might not have realized is blocked?
Just had a look around. On the recent article about immigration, the second highest comment is a progressive questioning the education level of conservatives. So the block is not completely effective.
Personally I think it’s a terrible idea for people to be siloing themselves into bubbles where everyone agrees with them. In a democratic political system this cannot end well.
I don’t think it’s actually trying to block progressives from commenting. They’re trying to be an anti-silo.
Sounds great! As a moderate I would fit right in! Oh - except I’m not allowed to.
