YSK: While you're on Lemmy/Kbin/Fediverse, you're not "the product" but you're also not "the customer".

  • Nope. You're the USER. A concept that is as old as computing and yet has gone completely by the wayside recently with the corporate monopolization of the internet.

    Good to see it making a comeback.

    • These are the privacy permissions that you grant for Meta's new twitter competitor

    • How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?

  • Does any of that make you think it's SUPPOSED to be new user friendly?

    They don't have to be. They also don't have to be federated.

  • The conductivity doesn't mean a damn thing when it's plating some shit-tier alloy.

    That corrosion resistance though... more than worth the price. I made that mistake on some monitors once. ONCE.

    • Lemmy resembles the old reddit experience so well that they even emulate the old reddit server performance

  • I want to be mad but FFS Reddit had Conde Nast money for most of its shittery so they had NO excuse except incompetence.

    At least Fediverse servers are typically Steve's old laptop or some shit so it's understandable.

  • Nobody can "get ahold" of an instance in any meaningful way. Accounts can be migrated to other instances. Instances that act poorly get defederated.

    If Meta buys lemmy.world you know what happens? Everyone migrates to other instances, lemmy.world gets defederated, and Meta now has a completely useless instance name and not much more.
