You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.

It’s rather the opposite: the federated models allows to choose which instances you want to connect with.
On centralized models, you can’t escape, you are trapped with everyone else, Twitter being a good example.
Could probably be reported on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

✅ blocking – users, communities, domains, instances. bi-directional.

Lots of people are waiting for app support, fingers crossed 🤞

Hey,
Hope you’re doing well!
Hey! I’ve been traveling a bit for the last few weeks, now I’m back. How are you?
I hope you’ll be able to get the account you want on lazysoci.al, it’s usually better to give visibility to smaller instances 😄
it’s much more dangerous for the individual fish to be in a smaller school than to stay in the large school.
LW run was running 0.19.3 for more than a year after the 0.19.4 and later releases, preventing the LW users of using the new Lemmy features.
is safer for the individual to join a “too large to fail” instance.
Agree, but if you filter https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list by Active Users, and take any instance in the top 20, you’re as safe as on LW.
Lemmy.zip for instance provides monthly transparency reports on !home@lemmy.zip , such as this one: https://lemmy.zip/post/35411310
who wants to invest years in a social media site just to lose your account?
I’ve switched instances several times since June 2023. I keep the same username and profile pic, so people still recognize me, and I still recognize other users who switched instances, or even platforms (e.g. switching from Lemmy to Piefed).
I know every time I see another instance get shut down or defederated, I’m relieved I decided to sign up via .world, even if it’s sluggish at times.
You’ll see similar reactions of people not on LW every time LW takes a controversial decision: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976
“Joining the fediverse isn’t hard bro, your instance doesn’t matter, just pick one.”
It’s true, especially in cases like this when users have 3 months to pick another instance.
“Stop using Lemmy.world, we need to redistribute to smaller instances.”
Also true. Should LW go down in 90 days in a similar way, is it better if LW has 50% of the users, or a smaller number?

Where are those posted? I think I always miss them, happy to help with testing before major releases
Amazing!
Instances usually vote for defederation https://sh.itjust.works/post/11308397
