    .world defeterated with a couple of other instances accusing them of being tankies. You might be missing some content. Also, there has been some recent drama about mods at .world. Stupid rulings. I don’t think .world is a great place to be. But that’s just me.

    Sometimes I post links and avoid .world because I want to ensure that they get full reach because of the defed issue.

      Worth pointing out that those were very few who had little activity, and they’re still federated with lemmy.ml despite a pretty big portion of users not wanting that.

      To make it sound like .world is missing a large volume of posts is just disingenuous

        Not what I said. I said “some.”

      I started in world, realized I was not a good fit, and transferred my first few months.

      World is great for some. Many coming from Reddit will feel comfortable. Especially USA middle class liberals who do not vary their news and don’t think too hard about certain things
