If you're still on Lemmy...
...you're supporting the solution!
I do not see how Lemmy helps with anything other than allowing people another excuse for escapism and scrolling on the internet over actually developing life skills, seeing new sights, socializing with humans, getting better at understanding people, and actually making an effort to communicate with others, doing some small part to make the world better.
Reddit is like CNN, which is Fox-lite, while xitter is ( oan and newsmax)
Don't we still have a few years before lemmy somehow enshittifies?
It's impossible by design. If an instance enshittifies people will just leave the instance.
Isn't that the exact same argument for Twitter? If Twitter gets shitty, people will just leave? Because I feel like we're not really seeing that.
No, not at all, twitter is not decentralized, with a lemmy instance, if you leave, you lose nothing at all. With twitter, you can't take the content or your account
if .world says being a minor is bannable suddenly there's no minors anywhere on Lemmy. A minor example that is understandable, sure, but it's just to show that a single large instance can cause a lot of change if they decide to.
But I don't think that's true at all.
The protocol itself could surely start its journey if enshittification? In which case different, possibly incompatible, branches would spawn fragmenting the Lemmy space. Still miles better than the whole thing burning to the ground. But with no shareholders looming around (yet) we can hope it won't come to that.
I don't see how, it's covered by a good license, and if it did it'd be forked in an instant. Can you give a historical example?
I guess the closest I know of is Maps.me and Organic Maps? Maps.me was open source, but got purchased and enshittified, so Organic Maps was forked from it. And now there is some drama with the Organic Maps shareholders/co-founders, so unless that is (or has it already been?) sorted out we're likely to see another fork of it.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the main dev(s) members of lemmy.ml? So I can certainly see how differing political views could skew the development of the main branch of Lemmy.
The organic maps founders seem to have convinced the volunteers that a private company would be best to manage an open source project. The community got duped hard.
I agree. And luckily for Lemmy and all other FOSS projects the worst that can happen is a fork of the project is created with a potentially fractured community.
That's a bad example because it got forked and it wasn't an actual problem?
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t the main dev(s) members of lemmy.ml[3]? So I can certainly see how differing political views could skew the development of the main branch of Lemmy.
People say this all the time but never can give even one example of a potential problem. Preemptive forking sounds insane to me. The notion that lemmy might enshittify because you don't like their politics is also ridiculous when their politics are anti-capitalist... aka the politics that are least likely to enshittify.
But that's exactly what I said in the beginning. The worst that can happen is the original creators take the project in an undesired direction so a fork is created.
Not really. It's not a centralized platform by design - unless you're talking about the flagship instances, which are a common problem with federated projects
It'd be pretty difficult, any instances that start that shit would be defederated with a quickness, but I don't want to be too optimistic lol
Lmao well I found this place cause they won’t let me on Reddit anymore. They didn’t appreciate my colourful thoughts on Musk.
Honestly you could get banned for upvoting someone who stated someone seemed agitated and should try following dear leaders advice and take a shot of ivermecrin, a shot of bleach, and take a nap.
Watching reddits fall over the span of 12 years was certainly a thing.
If you're still on Earth...
Joke's on you, I'm on Mbin
How's mbin been so far, compared to lemmy
I love it! Been using Interstellar on mobile.
How's it compare to lemmy thou please? Same principal but better executed? Better content? More content?
I prefer the interface by a lot: More features, better UI, and more capability. Content is the same because federation.
have you ever seen Lemmy
ON WEEEEEEED
Bro, I've been high basically every fucking day for the last 5 years for sure but we're getting on a decade here.
There isn't much shit I haven't tried on weed because raw dawgging this timeline is a guaranteed shotgun slurpee.

There's some weird shit going on, man. Beans flying everywhere, dudes who don't want to shit for 3 days. Who's that sending pictures of dead girls to everyone? I don't know! Mod team, go! Mod team, go!
No shit for 3 days? That's amateur numbers! There was that guy on Reddit that didn't go for a month and a half and had to get unclogged at the hospital!

I don't want to be part of a problem. I want to be the whole problem
Apparently if you want to do that you have to buy Twitter
If you're still using the Internet in any capacity...
If you're still using written word...
