Oh, found a post by the admin of that instance, it's from a week ago
its the default setting of every new instance to require approval, on my instance i dont require email verification so i thought i could at least have people write something to let me know they’re human. in the end no one uses my instance so I just opened it up, maybe after some registrations ill make it an application again.
Boy oh boy, @gaylord you're in for a fun time there, bud
48k users right now btw, he's getting a lot of bots

And my conspiratorial side makes me think that they're not here by accident
If you ask a liberal what "tankie" means you will get a response that sounds a lot like if you ask a conservative what "woke" means. The two main developers are communists, trying to collectivize social media. It is very shocking. 🙄
Opening with challenging the definition of "tankie" without knowing or asking on what definition I operate on is quite the red flag. Also the condescension instantly put me in defensive mode.
Dessalines has a collection of essays he's written on Github.
Thank you for the links, now after seeing that individual's defense and apologia of the genocidal soviet empire I'm more than convinced that is not the place for me.
Just from a cursory glance alone his attitude is vehemently imperialistic, not too different from what I've experienced from many privileged westerners.
Whether his heart is or is not in the right place, that's another matter. But after a year and a half of excruciatingly depressing takes from western leftists of all kinds, I'm not going to surround myself with people that I disagree most, I value my mental health more than that.
