Don’t tell me what not to tell you!

I see Lemmy and the fediverse more as an evolution of how we approach the web. We should absolutely cater to more casual users eventually, and try to have as many people as possible to leave behind these greedy internet monopolies. We clearly saw that they’re not the way to go.

How we get there is a bit of a question mark, it’s clear that there’s a big push from more involved/aware users to break away from big corporations. This doesn’t mean we’re building on outrage, just that it was the initial push to get something new started.

If the attention this post is getting isn’t a strong indicator of what our communities want, and the direction that the fediverse and all instance admins should follow, then nothing will be.

Especially now, because of the extra obstacles of joinin the fediverse, users are on average more aware of the implications of such a thing. We should listen our people.

Their entire religion is threatened by modern times changing and people no longer caring about a fairy in the sky. This is just a dying beast lashing out.

Absolutely, and it’s been very refreshing to see discussion get broader and be filled with memes and other interesting content.

It will take a while to get somewhere close to Reddit, but if we talk about how it feels, I see it getting closer and closer day by day.

Thanks for the heads up, fuck this bloat/spyware shit.

It’s a bit of a dated stereotype, thank Hollywood and the “nerd vs jock” trope.

This hurt to read, good job.

I have to say I also watch videos in background while doing other stuff, but that doesn’t make it a better medium to convey information, just more practical when the information is not important enough to be the main focus of someone’s attention, and that’s pretty subjective.

But I do get the point, I just wish it was different.

Uncanny.

I really don’t get this trend of turning everything into a video. Is it supposed to be easier to consume?

I would much rather read an article and get the information I want at the pace I want.

Look Harry, it’s the new Chumbus 2000!

Everything is good when you’re on drugs.

Mind blowing!

I’ve been thinking of getting a telescope but I’m afraid I’d not be able to use it outside of taking trips out of the city, for the light pollution.

I haven’t been following anything regarding Threads so I assumed it was out here in Europe too, it’s actually a relief that it isn’t. Won’t stay long like this, but it’s something.

Apes together strong.

Half way through I was hoping for it to end but no, there was more

I feel personally attacked by this
