I made two posts on !anime@lemmy.ml, neither are visible on both instances lemmy.ml are recommending.

beehaw.org has already become a much bigger instance and they ban lemmygrad, we’re already invisible to half the people using lemmy.

It will keep getting worse, at some point you’ll need to maintain two separate instance accounts and you’ll consider dropping one of them.

    If “lemmy is developed by socialists/communists/leftists” is enough for folks to steer clear of it (or move over to kbin, as I’ve seen at least one radlib insist that folks do rather than lemmy), then… “task failed successfully” in my eyes. No real loss.

      Yeah, I’d rather the community grows slower, but attracts sane people than having rapid growth of liberals with addled brains.

        I feel like lurkers are not considered in the growth, the sudden user influx is something that broke the camel’s back for me and made me return. But with the same influx of users there definitely was also lurkers who came over, although I guess after the blackout their numbers will dwindle the quickest, as they are more for consumption rather than propagation.

          Lemmy is programmed in rust, so that means those turbolibs prefer something built in another programming language over something built in their favorite one.

            Oh, you meant Rust as in a programming language, I was thinking about Rust as in the video game
