    Where all the vegans at to downvote these bloodmouths in our community?

    One of the issues with Lemmy is that it doesn’t have the critical size for smaller communities to not get overrun by c/all.

        I typically reserve it for these “lol bacon” types that go into other peoples’ communities and walk around like they think any of us care what they have to say.

        I’m happy to patiently explain anything to curious visitors, but I’ve got no patience for trolls.

      The issue is this stuff shows up on /all so many folks don’t even look at the community they just blindly respond to the meme

        Yeah, on reddit it was pretty much just the really high traction r/vegan posts that showed up on r/all, but there’s a lot less total posts here, so much less competition for eyeballs.

      IIRC Reddit lets individual subreddits opt out of appearing on r/all if they feel the exposure will do them more harm than good. I think Lemmy only has the option to defederate from specific instances, and that’s not the right tool here.
