This is the way.
If you don't like ml, just block them and leave lemmy.
Why exactly is leaving Lemmy necessary? I blocked the .ml instances, but I'm content with Lemmy for the rest
Because Lemmy itself is developed by the same folks who run .ml instance. Luckily there is piefed and mbin, which are compatible.
Piefed is a 1 to 1 replacement with access to the same content.
The lead lemmy developer has some u n usual political ideologies which are incompatible with my own.
Ooh, interesting. Do you also leave buildings whenever someone plays Michael Jackson?
What a silly thing to say.
Firstly, it's classic, textbook whataboutery.
Secondly, I'm struggling to remember the last time I would have been anywhere that would have played Michael Jackson.
Finally, you don't seem to understand the basic concepts of approval, support, and patronage. The existence of alternatives is critical
