I remember the “we are adults, not revolutionaries” entry in r/freebsd. After that, the subreddit administration decided to leave things as they were.
I don’t understand the point raised by R. Stallman about using only free software. Because for most of us the PC is a working tool, but in no way a religious toy.
Thank God I didn’t give in to herd instinct and delete my Reddit account. I did that four times in a row, and I don’t play those games anymore. I didn’t sign up for a subject that is foreign to me, especially since in my opinion the alternative apps work worse than the official one, and the lack of video downloads doesn’t bother me because I don’t watch porn. My Reddit stays the way it was. The FreeBSD and Slackware communities and a couple or three others have sane members.
The creators of Lemmy keep telling us about the “federation” of the social network. A federation is something that has a federal center that exercises a governing function.
Just because we all have not been informed of the existence of such a center does not mean that it does not exist.
A removable battery in the perfect surveillance device? There’s no such thing.
When Reddit collapses for good, it will be the end of Lemmy. There will be nothing to talk about, no subject to talk about.
What a horror…
Have you heard anything about uBlock origin, Ghostery and similar programs?
