The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

Well that's certainly an interesting strategy, let's see how that works out
Seems fair to me.
Though I think those who don't like this instance should just block the communities and move on.
Agreed, exploding heads is not for me, so I block and move on. I am new so I still use All to see what's going on and find new content. This NIMBY 'let's defederate' seems counterproductive. Looking at you beehaw.
I've noticed it's the same few users making the same de-federation argument and spreading it everywhere.
They're probably also the same people putting -2 on all your comments lol.
They are. I don't really care though since the downvote does literally nothing.
I don't really have any complaints about it (I mean about them blocking users not their content), I guess they don't have a lot of tools to reduce visibility. But I really should have put "Positive reaction to instance mass banning users who complain" on my lemmy drama bingo card this morning because I did not see that coming
A perfect solution would be a "Block Instance" function, hopefully they work on that. Lemmy is still very new.
I do this for nsfw content i see on all, i just block the community so I don't see it on this account. Don't want that popping up while in public.
