Long live the Fediverse, Long live Lemmy!

Yess sir!

Hey please don't spam same post in everywhere

It's not all bad, but I miss the sort of "wild west" feeling where nothing on the internet mattered because it wasn't real life.

Well.. We have lemmy and kbin now, without algorithms promoting stupid shit like in social media.

Also, there's no algorithm promoting outrage all the time.

Here's why, there's no algorithm to promote certain posts unlike twitter, facebook, youtube etc

Yeah, still works but without nsfw content

it's a BIG NOPE for me

Yeah we should thank him, without him we won't be here right??

Love you spez 😘😘😘

They have no power here even if we federate with them.

The current matter with Meta is that they have bad intentions towards the fediverse

And even if you don't have Threads app installed, Meta is also a privacy threat to fediverse users. If there are fediverse instances that are still federated with Meta.

Ross Schulman, senior fellow for decentralization at digital rights nonprofit the Electronic Frontier Foundation, notes that if Threads emerges as a massive player in the fediverse, there could be concerns about what he calls “social graph slurping." Meta will know who all of its users interact with and follow within Threads, and it will also be able to see who its users follow in the broader fediverse. And if Threads builds up anywhere near the reach of other Meta platforms, just this little slice of life would give the company a fairly expansive view of interactions beyond its borders.

It was around the days when spez goons started threatening moderators to open their subs

It's far less dangerous than using Threads

As long as they don't ask for your phone number, ID and you don't expose yourself. You'll be fine.

That's not important, we've already moved here

Anyways I hope Lemmy does not fall into the same pitfalls!

I really hope! Just watchout for Meta

My only problems is with spez and his goons (admins), and that's the reason I left reddit

Toxicity could happen across all social media platforms, that means it can happen in the fediverse too. And I'm glad lemmy doesn't have karma points

Really disappointing with what Rochko said about Threads on the mastodon blog, no wonder there are rumors about Meta paying some mastodon admins
