The bar for being Reddit circa 2010 isn’t that high to be fair, I know expectations have changed but Reddit was down intermittently for years to the point I’m amazed it got the traction it did in hindsight. People talk about Lemmy having tankies on it as though early Reddit didn’t have some even worse unsavoury subs and users too.

A lot of instances block the tankie instance anyways.

Which instances are tankie-related?

I figured lemmygrad is a tankie instance, but is lemmy.ml another tankie instance?

lemmy.ml isn't explicitly "tankie" but the main devs are and the moderation will include not allowing posts/comments critical of China/Russia/communism/etc.

They seem ok for commies.

No kidding, wasn’t r/jailbait the biggest sub for a while there?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

There were and are to this day a ton of subs with similar content.
