Tribalism, to own the libs.

I’d like to know as well. I’d love to join a good community or older techies.

And somehow it’ll be the “woke mind virus’s” fault. There will be no self reflection at all.

Couldn’t you wait until Mitch Mconnell died until you released this? I’d rather not him be in the senate forever.

I think its a little rough around the edges, but thats to be expected given that its less than a year old. The big hit for me is the mobile app which just isn’t that good. This will come with time. I’d rather have an half-baked implementation thats showing promise over what Reddit is doing. I like decentralized social media because you can pick and choose what communities you interact with. If lemmy.world decides to go full enshitification (although I can’t figure out how they would monetize), you can just pack up and going to another community.

This honestly reminds me of when I was growing up in the early 00s, I was part of several different community forums that I loved dearly. There were other groups I looked into, but some were just toxic and unappealing, so I left after a while. I feel like Lemmy gives us the same freedom. I really hope to meet some awesome people here. Right now it’s just big enough to still allow meaningful dialogue and create cool relations. I felt like Reddit was too big for its own good even with niche subreddits; it didn’t feel like posting was worth it as it would get buried or just get a low effort response.

I can’t wait for other social media platforms to do the same thing. Social media companies are so stagnant they just copy what other companies do without thinking if it’s a good idea or not.
