So far I’m liking it. I wasn’t fond of the general attitude people had on reddit though, and I’m seeing some of the pop up as a result of the migration.
I have concerns that the lemmy community will become as toxic as reddit is. Other than that, I am enjoying how small communities are here. I don’t feel like my voice is being drowned out by other users or bots.
It feels like people are a lot nicer here than on Twitter and Reddit, and even when people disagree, it’s generally civil and not an all-out flame war. Also, there’s no algorithm promoting outrage all the time....
My absolutely favorite cold beetroot soup for hot summer! Tried it in Lithuania on my vacation few years back and it was love at first sip. It is called Šaltibarščiai (sorry if I misspelled something I’m not Lithuanian:)). It’s fantastic!
Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you’d...
Agreed. More instances should defederate from anything related to Meta. Im here because a corporate entity utterly destroyed something I liked. I don’t want that again.
Most people dont care about the api changes. Reddit won't be going anywhere provided they don't start harassing their actual customers off of the platform.
I think these federsted sites will grow a fair bit but once everyone forget about the reddit drama, the numbers will plateau.

I think there already is one. There was a guy working for that company who was fired for whistleblowing after the ceo ignored his safety concerns, and now that employee is going after the company for wrongful termination.
That ceo knew it was dangerous but still decided to drag 4 other people to a watery grave
Oh yeah, and by a wide margin. At those depths they wouldn't have had the chance to register that they were about to die. Implosions are nearly instant.

Ngl your bar analogy is one of the best descriptions of "free speech" platforms i've ever seen.
I'm all for free speech irl, where there are actual consequences for being a dick, but anonymity + total free speech online has ended in disaster every single time.

I strongly encourage instance admins to defederate from Facebook/Threads/Meta....
Imagine Lemmy becoming so popular it drives Reddit to support ActivityPub or go extinct
Reddit would become compatible with Lemmy essentially making it it's own "instance", and suddenly 3rd party apps work with Reddit again....
