There are two things slowing down the migration. One is the “network effect” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_effect (which is really strong in reddit) and other is the confusion and bugginess of Lemmy right now as lemmy is still in its infancy. Decentralization makes this a bit confusing to use and it doesn’t help that some posts etc are not showing up due to bugs or lack of features so you are not sure if the problem is you or lemmy but regardless of all that, federation is better than the reddit empire so we’re on the right track

When I view the community through the lemmy instance I’m using, I’m seeing no posts there. I guess this is a problem related to vlemmy but just putting it out here if someone else is having the same problem and is confused https://vlemmy.net/c/ufos@lemmit.online

edit: now it shows the reddit threads there, so probably as I understand vlemmy hadn’t seen them yet (as no one in vlemmy had been accessing the community yet) and it took it some hours(?) to sync the stuff from another instance.

Haven’t seen the film (tubi is not available in Europe). After watching the trailer the first impression I get is that the brazilian govt/military also seems to have been very serious about covering it up. What is it that makes the covering it up top priority doesn’t matter where you are. Is it an instinct to protect, because it feels overwhelming or is there a very serious deal between governments for covering these things up that makes them follow it to the smallest detail.
