Amen!

Honestly, I would rather Lemmy attract its own community naturally rather than it be the place all redditors pipe into. I think most people who have already come from there can agree the culture is not really conductive to quality discussion, and we've started to see some of that leak into Lemmy as well.

Rather than just copy/paste reddit's users and culture, we should try to develop both on their own. Create an environment that users want to spend their time on. Then through word of mouth on other platforms they entice people here. I don't think just being the place redditors flood after every fuckup is healthy for the growth of the platform. As a Mastodon user, I'm kinda glad it isn't the primary platform Twitter refugees are flocking to.

I honestly prefer fediverse remain as that complex open source alt, because it's one of the few filters we have for users here.

I honestly don't believe rapid growth is healthy for any platform, and we've even seen it here with how comments and memes are getting increasingly vitriolic and offensive. Fuck, antivax memes are starting to appear on lemmy.ml's meme community.

I'm starting to think Beehaw had the right idea with vetting users, because there people here who think Lemmy should be another 4chan.

Have we?

I get the error, and its still visible.

From kbin? I'm on lemmy rn cause it's working here.

That's surprising. Part of the reason I joined ca for my lemmy account was they seemed relatively chill compared to world and ml.

If there is one thing I have learned from lemmy so far, is there are a lot of weirdos on here with an axe to grind. world and ml get regularly DDOSed, there was the time when world got hacked and got a ton of horrible stuff posted to it, and there was that one user who claimed a lot of communities and sat on them, only to vow revenge when they got banned.

Any other kbin users getting an error message trying to block it? I'm on my lemmy account cause there is no way can find to silence it from kbin.

They really do have the fashion police down there.

I'm not saying the government is somehow involved here...but

What have you done!?
