The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don't think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches....
I decided to take a peek at Reddit to see what kind of activity is happening, a good handful of the subreddits I am subscribed to are still super active with posts and commenters....
Orrrr... get this; some people don't think like you. Or give enough of a shit. Which is not a bad thing. Your elitist attitude on the other hand is shit.
Let it die. Things will die. Old members will get butthurt. New things will rise. This is the way of change. "Fragmented in 1000s of bubbles" is what the Fedverse is anyway from what I understand. Some of y'all are thinking to Reddit-y.
We should not let people take advantage of the situation to back stab strikers. We should discourage this behavior, and show anyone who does this that it will not be taken kindly....
Why? Why should someone speaking the truth feel ashamed? Just because you are outraged doesn't make what that post is saying true. Whether you like it or not Reddit will be unphased. Most of us will use both this and Reddit. VERY few of you are actually neckbeard angry. The rest of us are just here.
Star Citizen is a scam plain and simple. It's "stolen" thousands of dollars (probably more) at this point and has nothing to show for it but a very pretty buggy mess.
People are that incompetent. Just look at some of these comments, and the comments on any thread talking about it. These people giving away their life savings will defend it with every breath. Almost cult like devotion.
It's almost as if Lemmy was a thing with a dozen or so users plus devs at most just a few days ago and is doing what they can with the influx of people. Be patient. And stop bitching. Nobody is forcing you to be here.
I know it's "cool" to hate on TikTok, but honestly it can be a very good tool as well as fun. I follow a bunch of news, baking, social posters and feel like I get a lot of info without much bias (there is always bias). The people that complain have only themselves to blame. The algorithm is so good you only really see what you want to see. So they're really just calling themselves out. They're watching exactly what they bitch about.
There's so much disinformation here. There's so much disinformation on Reddit. There's so much disinformation on Facebook. On Youtube. On Google. What's your point?
Oh cupcake. No, you've ended the discussion by calling it an argument and tipping your hand as to what you're looking for. Thank you for showing me I'm dealing with an uneducated neckbeard looking to start fights.
Watching this man's trainwreck is so mind boggling. I mean just a decade ago he had every single one of us believing he was real life Tony Stark. I mean even pop culture sci fi like Star Trek mentioned him along Sagen and Einstein... He really pulled the wool over our eyes.
I loved Reddit for what it is, but nothing made me back out of a post faster than seeing the top 3 parent threads as a regurgitation of the same inside jokes, pun-chains, and so on.
I get what you're saying, but communities that spend time together will form their inside jokes, their way of doing things, etc. If you don't like it you don't have to participate. I say this with the upmost respect, but you need to get over yourself. Nobody is forcing you into a community.

Took a peek on Reddit, it really boggles my mind how oblivious and obedient people are.

Opinion: anyone who takes over a sub reddit because original mods closed it in protest, should face community outrage
We should not let people take advantage of the situation to back stab strikers. We should discourage this behavior, and show anyone who does this that it will not be taken kindly....
what does it mean that Beehaw "defederated" from lemmy.world?
I thought I understood, but I still have Beehaw content in my feed, so I guess I don't understand after all... Can someone dumb it down for me?

Star Citizen costs exceed Cyberpunk 2077, GTA 5, and RDR2 combined (www.pcgamesn.com)
I just hopped on today and the site is very unusable right now
EDIT: it seems that this is a known bug and will be fixed in the next release! Thank you guys for letting me know...
