Lemmy.world is a shitty instance, filled with transphobes and trolls. Would definitely recommend moving to a different one. I hear lemmy.blahaj.zone is really nice, they ban transphobes and their apologists on sight.

But having the ability to downvote bigots gives me a feeling of catharsis...

Seeing them banned can feel even more cathartic. The trolls on Lemmy.world don't care if you downvote them, they'll just downvote you back. Some of them probably have multiple accounts and will just downvote you twice, while upvoting themselves. On blahaj and instances like it, there won't be games, they just get banned.

I would say same but somehow not being able to downvote has helped me be a tiny bit less negative, I think? Idk. Weirdly I don’t miss it

I think OP may have already been talking about lemmy.blahaj.zone, as that's the instance that this post is on (196 is on blahaj).

I feel at home here <3. People are very nice and tend to be actual reasonable people. Idk why anyone would join world or ml, besides if they just don't care or didn't have the time.

Wait can you even switch and have your posts come with you?

I joined world when I came here and have been too lazy to change :3

Fair. I was on discuss.tchnics.de fiesty but then switched to blahaj, cuz the haj is so cute and the people are too!
