Looking to be censored when the last of our democracy finally gives way.

Lemmy.today, which I use as my home instance, is. Oregon.

https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/ can show others.

Hi friend from the same instance!

https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/ isnt always correct, because it uses IPs, so anything behind the cloud flare will look like it's from the US, even if it's not.

We welcome new users! We've got a signup process to keep out spam, but it's really basic. You just have to answer 3 questions and not have it be obviously AI slop. We're generally pretty quick about approving new users, and if we're not for some reason you can ping me, @[email protected] or @[email protected].

We've got a welcome thread to point you in the right direction if you're new to the discuss.online and/or the Fediverse: https://discuss.online/post/16318079. If chat is your thing, we've also got a chatroom at https://matrix.to/#/#online.discuss:discuss.online

Lastly I'll plug the [email protected] community that I help mod as well. I just posted the weekly How was your week in the US? thread and asked how many geese everyone thinks they could take on.

In the USA, Donald Trump knows how to reply to "hate speech", but he never censors freedom of expression, even if he doesn't agree with somebody's statement.

But in Europe, if anything doesn't fall in with their official line, they put it under the category of "hate speech" and "disinformation", and send it into oblivion.

Can I open accounts on multiple instances ?

Can you name one ?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 hours ago
[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

You can! I registered my first account on ml, and moved to sdf, with a third on world as a backup. You can open one on every instance if you want, or more as individual instance rules permit.

Using the same email id ?

Aren't they in Quebec? They barely accept being part of Canada, I expect that nukes will flies before having Quebec joining US
