This feud is just so annoying. Just to be clear, I’m not up to date on whatever drama or conflict happened last between the instances depicted, I just find it so stupid. lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear exist since earlier than probably 95+% of instances out there, and these .worlders act like we are the aggressors because we interact on the federated network they chose to use for their FOSS reddit alternative. There’s a metaphor for colonisation somewhere in there, but I’m too tired to spell it out.

Edit: I see I fell for the meme. Still, my point stands for every time an actual .worlder or the like accused us of invading their online spaces
