I feel like I've formed some sort of faithfulness towards dbzer0 and have a bias towards subs and users of my instance. Anybody else in the same boat?

How many of us just picked the server because we wanted “popular, but not the most popular”? I imagine that attracts a type.

I’d want “bullied hexbear so hard they defederated out of shame” to be our bias if we get to choose. It’s always okay to ~~punch~~ bully a fascist.

Wait, they defederated from us? I thought I was noticing less of their... uh... content around.

Indeed, citing the amount of pushback they received when performing their stated goal of radicalizing people. Shocking, really.

This is wonderful news.

Yup, that was me. Popular enough to stay around, not so popular it'll get overrun by noobs coming from Reddit.

I feel like it still kinda got overwhelmed due to some instability a month or so back, but it's been pretty good. I might go elsewhere eventually since it's getting pretty popular (may even make my own instance), but for now, sh.itjust.works.
