Unless anyone knows another reason for this impressive increase in comments? Seems to roughly coincide with Sync launching. If thats the case, just goes to show the importance of good third party apps.

EDIT: Looks like a confusingly labeled graph and I think this is total comments. I have no idea why that spike could exist though.
I guess if you’re just looking for a generic reddit-like experience then .world for now seems to do the job just fine. Ultimately it has admins that can choose to de-federate from any other server and they may do that to ones you would rather they didn’t. Every server is going to be somewhat unique on that front with their own set of rules to follow (or not).
It’s really interesting because it always will become somewhat political - with servers that have a tendency for more extreme views whether right or left wing, where do you draw the line before deciding to cut them off? That has already been happening in the short time I joined with servers like Hexbear which I honestly still don’t fully understand the history and complexity of the situation.
My plan so far at least is to keep an eye on the lemmy.world announcements subreddit and if they do anything that I disagree with too much then I can move on elsewhere but I’m quite happy letting others do that level of curation for now at least without keeping too much of a close eye.
