So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

Lol at creating a new open source platform with free speech and immediately asking how to eliminate it.

In the older, better days of the internet, "assholes" were just a part of it.

Learn to deal

No, assholes need to learn to behave within the context of the instance / community they are posting to or get downvoted / moderated. Ideally they go away to their own instance where they can be assholes to each other and be defederated.

I feel like we're going to end up with a bunch of de-federation drama. I can't wait for the great de-federation wars.

I'm glad to see that this perspective is popular on Lemmy. My biggest issue with almost every other Reddit alternative I've seen is that they're full of bigots.
