Lemmy does give me a strong nostalgic feeling of old school forums. I think the Fediverse is going to give enthusiasts what they’ve been missing. I just hope it lasts and continues to grow.
That’s what pisses me off about Bluesky. Mastodon already exists, and is not for profit. We don’t need another “decentralized” platform that intentionally doesn’t talk to the Fediverse and is trying to create its own version. Yet my fear is Bluesky will end up being mainstream and those for-profit CEOs will continue running the internet into the ground. I hope people end up realizing Mastodon already exists, and is a better version of what Bluesky wants to be.
they’d have to talk to a lot of website administrators. even if they contact the developers directly and somehow convince them to include adware (a snowball’s chance in hell), instance admins can just remove the adware and run their own ad-free version of Lemmy
this. I like the fact that for Lemmy you can just set up your own instance if you don’t find one that suits your needs (and hope this feature never goes away). sure, it can lead to some fragmentation, but it’s not like entire communities didn’t switch forums and providers in the past
