Criteria: I’m looking for instances that are defed’ with the Big 3 tankies (lemmygrad, lemmy.ml, and hexbear). I have no interest in trying to persuade my friends to create an acc and set up instance blocks before diving in, or dealing with the feedback when they run into the tankie brigade.

Edit: lemmy.cafe and infosec.pub seem to fit. I also find it really interesting just how many of the replies totally ignored my stated criteria.

    heh, sadly it doesn’t prevent you seeing their opinions in comments. But still, it ensures that they won’t ever appear in your own OPs.

      I’ve noticed that discussions about matters are much more pleasant upon blanket blocking all the users from the ML instance. Sometimes I’ll go read the “identical” post on another instance and wow, what a difference it makes!?!

      Still, fair that getting blocked is a step up from the almost non-existent (or at least non sequitur) “instance blocking” done by Lemmy.
