Uh… Eerily accurate.

By loaded I meant with servers full, don’t know if it came across correctly. 😅 They’re smaller than lemmy.world though

I hope they’re accepting new members, last I knew about it they were already very loaded with new users.

sigh Based Lemmy devs having yet another big W. Wish my instance did the same

Commenting counts as creating content right? If so, I’ll be glad to continue as a serial commenter and rare poster :')

Yup, boring lives are a goal to strive for in our world. That means financial stability with not many serious issues going on.

Goddamn I want my life to be as boring as possible.

It’ll happen when they capture the biggest portion of Twitter’s users. As soon as that happen enshittification shall descend upon it.

Yup, capitalism pushes them to try to own/incorporate everything that can either be a threat or a resource for the business.

I imagine him being annoyed at most, but only switching if something break. He’s way more focused on pragmatism than ethics (not implying he doesn’t think about the ethics standpoint)

Being opt-out instead of opt-in is icky. I don’t have much faith in RedHat related projects after the recent debacles (RHEL trying to kill off Alma and Rocky and Fedora’s project manager being fired with no replacement).

As a Fedora user, I’m really tired of being disappointed. Gonna wait for my vacation to switch to Debian.

As much as I dislike porn (exploitation industry etc) this is a good take.

With all due respect, you (and your account) sound too much like astroturf material. The primary business of Meta is influencing public opinion, and that’s the biggest danger it poses to any group.

If you’d like to invite the company that has collaborated with Rohingya’s genocide, feel free to do so. I’d never be able to do so and sleep well at night.

I won’t further engage past this comment our of respect for my own time and for your ability to comprehend my points.

The apps for the fediverse aren’t responsible for federating with Meta, the instances (servers) are.

If my instance (lemmy.world) federates with Meta, I need only to switch servers (say, to lemmy.ml or lemm.ee), not stop using the current app I use (mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff).

ActivityPub won’t ever “truly” die, it might lose the chance of becoming “the salvation from mega corporations running the internet” though. We’ll always have the possibility of running small-ish, tight-knit instances.

But agreed, fuck Zuckerberg and his cronies.

Which corroborates Eugen either being really damn naive or a paid shill.

But it can be a replacement with original content. Even if they have the same topics, it’s beneficial to let each community grow their own culture.

Based mastodon.art, I don’t use Mastodon anymore (microblogging isn’t my thing) but I’m glad I set my account there when I tried it. I remember the folks there being quite the lively and caring bunch.

Eugen is either naive or is in cohorts with Meta. As a tech worker, I know firsthand how foolish can techbros be. He.probably thinks he can “negotiate an advantageous position” with Meta.

Bravo. This goes straight to the main goal of Meta: they want us exposed to their manipulation, their astroturfed content and their psychological traps. They want our attention to their content, and the best defense we can have is negating them from having any of it.

Yup, my main concern is being fed stuff Meta wants us to see so they can misinform and manipulate public opinion. I want to never interact with Meta again.
