Probably accurate. That seems to have set the trend for who belongs. Of course we’d all want to keep highly objectionable material away, but I’d prefer to see some diversity of thought.
Maybe it’s due to population size, but I’m beginning to feel like Lemmy is a worse echo chamber than Reddit. And yes, I have noticed the landmines and people getting overly downvoted for stating simple opinions.
I’m not so sure this is the place for me anymore. I’ll stick around for now, but I may leave if something else comes along.
Can someone link this thread in that Reddit thread to show how their dissent is thriving here with open dialogue, or will that get removed?
I don’t know, man. I think you could run the fediverse if you put your mind to it.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m onboard with these decentralized platforms. I’m not questioning the value of this federation system, but the potential volatility of parts of it. The concept of an '‘instance’ may be old, but that seems to be a new buzzword, fit for abuse.
It feels like starting a new instance is the trendy thing to do, similar to creating some new crypto shitcoin a few years ago. Of course, nothing is guaranteed, but I would imagine more deeply rooted instances would generally offer more support and be less likely to disappear.
Would a smaller instance not be more likely to have weaker support, or more prone to shutting down and taking you with it?

I recently discovered this app, and am thoroughly impressed by it. Basically, you collect and curate recipes with it. It removes all the nonsense fluff, life stories, and ads from recipe pages, and saves only the recipe, ingredients, and directions.
Quit acting like the average Redditor, and just be civil and disagree.
Seems like there’s more reason to participate here. I may end up posting more, but several of my posts returned in error. Server issues, I assume, but frustrating when I’d have to rewrite everything.
Thanks bro
These Russian characters sure are dramatic. When this is all over I hope we get some good documentaries and movies about this whole special military operation fiasco.
