Ya, the tribalism is much more intense, probably because we all have the @instance next to our name. I cringe so hard when I see people say shit like "typical .ml user" and the like. Most people just join an instance randomly, it's not like there's a political pledge they make you sign when you do or something. I do think this current situation is kind of fucked up tho.

I only joined .world because it was listed on Reddit Is Fun as the app closed. Now people randomly ban me or insult me for being mainstream. Bruh...

Yup. My first instance was .world because fuck it, good enough, at least it's not Reddit. (Didn't know about all the drama until at least a year later, too. I still probably don't know about a lot of it.) Now I'm two-timing that one and piefed.social until I carve out the time to set up my own instance or few, maybe even one with a deluxe-tier membership with extra features.

They point fingers at .ml to deflect from the fact that the opinions supposedly isolated to those instances are actually everywhere.
