I don't think people really understand that reddit is an 18 year old product. Their original site was iterated on for 10 years before they stopped building on it.

Lemmy will get there and beyond. As the fediverse attracts more users, it will also attract more contributors. I'm starting to learn Rust myself in hopes I can contribute to the project at some point down the line.

I can’t get into calling subs “magazines”. Communities is much better.

Society will never progress while Fox News is allowed to remain on the air. Fox News creates digital walls to segregate the audience from reality.

Please for anyone reading, just be patient. Keep posting and commenting and it WILL grow. There are only like 1.2 million Lemmy users versus hundreds of millions of redditors.

If you follow the 90-9-1 rule, that leaves very few actual contributors and still Lemmy has a lot of good content daily. Just be patient and it will come.

What they want is freedom to control reality. What Republicans say, every day is not real, they don't live in reality. What they want is not free speech, they have that more than ever. What they want is to dictate reality to the rest of us.

All conservative are bad, acab as it were.

You want to know a secret? Religious people are the worst people on earth.

The day this guy ODs will be one of the most important days in modern history.

Greg Abbott is a little piss baby

Rogan should be deplatformed. We don't have a robust enough education system for 'free speech' to work when people like Rogan are just lying to people.

I'm still in the transition phase. I was pretty intertwined with the site so it takes a little time to unwind all of that.

You are a legend for this.

Whatever Christie is doing, it's aimed for after the election. I think he's simply raising his profile for either a talking head spot on a network or a leadership role in the party post-Trump. I think he seriously underestimates the degree to which the party has shifted hard right, though.

Whatever ends up happening, it is going to be wildly entertaining seeing Christie trash Trump at the debates. I think he'll ridicule Trump for not even having the guts to be present for the debates, and that may trigger Trump to start participating.

Sorry for the double crossposts. When you pull up a community to post to it can be confusing.

I don't think they'll delete this. This is their future.

You’re doing a great job so far. Thanks for the update.

How do I gild this comment?

Most people don't like right wing anything. Not really a surprise.

I'm trying. It's hard when they keep falling face-first into the pavement on a weekly basis.

When the API changes were announced, for the first time I started thinking I should leave reddit. This coin thing was just kicking me while I was down. Ok, they want to get rid of awards for a new system. But you also want to remove them from past posts?? And you're not going to convert coin balances into anything?

Those are the things a company that has no regard for it's users does.

This is why he'll win. Because Republicans live in an echo chamber where they think Biden is incompetent. If you look at the record he's the best president since FDR.
