Update: I got banned from hexbear and grad lmao
My experience on lemmy is vastly improved after blocking lemmygrad, lemmy.ml, hexbear, beehaw, and pawb. Wiped out vast swathes of degenerates from my feed.
Sure, occasionally poking them with a stick can be funny, but if you don’t like your scrolling punctuated with muttering “oh fuck off” under your breath every few minutes – it’s nice.
Beehaw? I’ve had nothing but good interactions with them, personally.
I can’t remember why I blocked them exactly, to be honest, but I remember thinking they were almost as annoying as hexbear users, and I can’t be bothered to go have a second look now to see exactly why. Clearly, I was annoyed with them enough to block them, as the ones I listed above are the only instances I have blocked save for lemmynsfw (which is just because I don’t care for porn in my feed).
Beehaw’s primary identity as an instance is “to be nice to people” which you know what, that’s fine, but personally I think it’s super annoying lol. Also there are some users from that instance who were also outspoken and especially annoying but I don’t see them commenting as much these days.
??? (Mostly) Nothing wrong with Beehaw or pawb.social, most are good people around those parts
Beehaw? The most adorable place in the lemmy space IMO!
If you don’t like them fine, but please reconsider lumpung them together with the crazy fascist ones please 😊
