Finally! I hate how the US just bends over for Israel. Any religion involved in any government will turn fascist because they can't stop hating all the other religions. Turns out people that believe in fairy tales aren't that bright!
I'm admittedly not from this community but I'd make the argument that you may as well switch to this now because your community will suffer either now or in the future when reddit needs to show more revenue growth. Say what you will about how much the api change actually matter but they at the least show their mentally about their users and platform.
Mine was 8 years old and I haven't touched it since the protests started
Okay I'm convinced, we live in a simulation. No way this isn't alien reality tv.
When I first read about the defederation I had a knee jerk angry response but after thinking about it I really feel like it makes sense for them. They want to have a heavily moderated space and it's hard to do that when you integrate with the other communities. It seems to me they have a level head and are approaching this carefully. I hope that they end out being in the minority but I can understand having a few relatively solitary groups with a focused goal.
Public companies are legally required to always do their best to grow year over year. Eventually these companies get so large they can't realistically get more market share so they have to figure out how to make more money from their users. This leads to them squeezing users for cash in the hunt for short term gains because they've already realistically capped out on how much money they can make per year. It's a dumb system that can't work in the long term.
I know! Why would they do that to themselves!
I know, it's disgusting. I had an argument with a friend saying that all companies are greedy so why would you expect reddit to be different... I mean yeah if you just let them walk all over you that's what's gonna happen.
What's the difference between kbin and Lemmy? I thought they were just different instances of the same open source project with different host names.
What advantage would switching to crypto have? I'm not well versed in how Lemmy works yet but I don't see why Lemmy would need blockchain.
Cool, I guess it's time to uninstall boost then. Guess I'm on Lemmy for the foreseeable future!
Florida's a shit hole and I'm glad to see the voters there getting what they deserve.
