I’ve seen around 3 occasions of that this week, altho I have never seen anything like it before.

if I remember correctly they were:

  • smack talking a mod (FlyingSquid) for saying not to report the same comment twice, when they were different comments, and the report was spam
  • someone comparing .world with .ml in politics (as in there was a comment saying "this post will be overrun with .ml people, and then a comment going “but you are from .world”) (Maybe Im part of the problem? I have been called out for being a fascist because I questioned the “puching nazis” theme)
  • one more which I can’t remember.

Anyways, what is all that about? Are people really starting to hate on 50% of the lemmy population because of their instance?

    You can easily export and import your subscriptions from the settings menu, so that makes changing instances quite easy

      It’s a shame that there isn’t functionality for a full account port, including comments and posts.

        That can easily be abused to overload instances with a lot of content. It’s also technically challenging due to the way comments are posts are linked

        Mastodon does not offer it either:

        Mastodon currently does not support importing posts or media due to technical limitations https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/
