Lemmy.ml and hexbear have tankie problems. Thankfully it’s easy to block instances. I’m not aware of any instance that got Nazi problems.
Oh yeah, I agree. I blocked hexbear, but not .ml yet. I'm still willing to argue with that group. It's just saying "lemmy" has a Nazi problem is like saying email has a Nazi problem.
There's some nazi instances like explodingheads or whatever, but everyone has and continues to defederate from them instantly so it's not much of a problem for users.
There are plenty of Nazi instances, but most non-Nazi instances share a common blocklist and don't federate with them.
