For all your boycotting needs. I'm sure there's some mods caught in lemmy.ml's top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire.

!memes@lemmy.world and !memes@sopuli.xyz. Or of course communities that rule.
!asklemmy@lemmy.world
!linux@programming.dev. Quite small, plenty of more specific ones available. Also linux is inescapable on lemmy anyway :)
!programmer_humor@programming.dev
!world@lemmy.world
!privacy@lemmy.world and maybe !privacyguides@lemmy.one, lemmy.one itself seems to be up in the air. !fedigrow@lemm.ee says !privacy@lemmy.ca. They really seem to be hiding even from another, those tinfoil hats :)
!technology@lemmy.world
Seems like !comicstrips@lemmy.world and !comicbooks@lemmy.world, various smaller comic-specifc communities as well as !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
!opensource@programming.dev
!fuckcars@lemmy.world

(Out of the loop? Here's a thread on lemmy.ml mods and their questionable behaviour)

Interesting list

For another thread on this topic: https://lemmy.world/post/16235541

About !privacyguides@lemmy.one, I posted on !meta@lemmy.one: https://lemmy.world/post/16273266, the instance and community might be a bit abandoned.

For comics, isn't !comicstrips@lemmy.world an option?

privacyguides does seem to have a decent number of active users, comicstrips seems to be more specialised than comics.

privacyguides does seem to have a decent number of active users,

I agree, that's what I mentioned in that thread. But still, we might want to see if the instance is still managed, or if it will go bust like lemmy.film or iusearch.fyi

!comicstrips@lemmy.world content is very similar to !comics@lemmy.ml.

The more specific one is !comicbooks@lemmy.world
