Comment on Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded?
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days ago.world is definitely not an open-minded one, in my opinion.
In my opinion, the most open minded one so far is sh.itjust.works.
But I will admit I haven’t visited all of the Lemmy’s. Lemm.ee USED to be one of the more openminded ones, but something has changed lately. They def try to shut down disenting voices now. Not sure if they got pressured into it or what happened. But a change started 2 or 3 weeks ago.

I don’t even know how to switch instances tbh.
I’ll look into switching later at some point.

Well I am def not pressuring you. If you are fine with .world, stay there.
But to switch, you just go to any other community and sign up. So you would click on sh.itjust.works, click sign up, pick your username. Once they verify your email, boom! You’re on a new instance.
And for a summary instances (think of them like servers, each with it’s own flavor): join-lemmy.org/instances

Oh it’s that easy? I figured it was gonna require some one handed cartwheels or spells at a minimum.
I’ll probably do that after work then.
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days ago
nah, it’s easy. That’s what’s so great about it. Also since some instances get pretty restrictive or ban happy, many just hope on to another instance that is more welcoming.

It’s the same process you used to register for your current account. You can’t transfer anything automatically though, but it’s easy enough to set it up again with your subscriptions and blocks.
