Hey thanks for looking! I was in a desktop browser earlier when I was having issues but I'm on a phone now. I was having more trouble on the desktop browser.

Howdy, Chicagoland area here. I love the idea of a "location-federated" social media so I migrated here from lemmy.ml.
Migration was smooth however I'm finding this instance to be quite slow to load pages, is it just me?
I went to the last Chicago one... And while there is some solace in the feeling of being there and seeing a massive crowd of others opposing this fascist movement, I really couldn't shake the feeling that it feels like a glorified parade.
The route is planned out, the police cooperate to close the roads, everyone marches together and chants and then goes home.
Peaceful is one thing but a planned out disruption that's barely a disruption is just... Are we honestly doing much?
I have no doubt the developer means well but that highlight with misinformation about how Android notifications work plus the lack of any input from those knowledgeable or affected by the raids really erodes any confidence in this.
Hate to say it but it honestly doesn't sound crazy hard to just block any instance that pops up. Yes it's whack a mole but if it's an automated script, it can just crawl through a backdoor instance and ban any domain it sees.
