“We believe the prerequisite for meaningful diplomacy and real peace is a stronger Ukraine, capable of deterring and defending against any future aggression,” Blinken said in a speech in Finland, which recently became NATO’s newest member and shares a long border with Russia.

    I initially joined lemmy about 2 years ago, and the place was swamped with them. They have their own instance they hide out on, which lemmy.ml federates with but beehaw.org and sopuli.xyz do not. It will be interesting to see how the lemmy landscape evolves as time passes on.

      yeah… i have an account on both lemmy.ml, and on beehaw.org. currently, I’m sticking with lemmy.ml just because I want to see more content, and I think I an handle the shitty people due to having a think skin, but it’s nice to know that there are nicer instanes, should i need to deal with it on those terms.

      Is there a way to block an entire instance in Lemmy like you can with mastodon? Or to just hide all the posts from them?

      This thread has made me realize how insufferable they are

        I don’t think so, at least not yet. I think the alternative is to sign up for an instance that doesn’t federate with them.

          Yup, I also have an account on Beehaw but I’ve been switching back and forth since the local feed on this instance hasore traffic. I’ve found the community to be a lot more pleasant over there though
