Boy does it feel good to have those reports and understand the work you guys do. It's really inspiring! Thanks for your hard work, everything has been silk smooth! This instance is really great, Lemmy and its devs are really amazing and I feel at home in a nice, cozy community.

For the alt/far-right, everything slightly to the left from the "normal right" is far-left.

Bravo. This goes straight to the main goal of Meta: they want us exposed to their manipulation, their astroturfed content and their psychological traps. They want our attention to their content, and the best defense we can have is negating them from having any of it.

And we're now getting the Meta shills as well, wanting everyone to federate with Threads because "what harm is there in federating with a fascist mega corporation? You're being too judgmental and intolerant"

They seem really aligned in their goals then!

Tbh the biggest threat is Meta's ability to manipulate public opinion. They've used it to great lenghts to make the world a worse place.

Yeah, I follow him for his privacy and FOSS content, but some of his takes can be quite... controversial, and those attract some questionable folks.

Rochko has demonstrated to be either foolish or naive, and both are bad.

I'm not betting on him to having been bought, out of a minimum of trust, but it wouldn't surprise me if that's the case.

For me at least, I found here the same kind of content I used Reddit for, so as long as these stay around I have good reason to do so.

I also like the federation "movement", (imo) it feels more cozy and enhances the sense of a community.

Dude wants his golden parachute so badly he treats the interview as his rant box.

Being opt-out instead of opt-in is icky. I don't have much faith in RedHat related projects after the recent debacles (RHEL trying to kill off Alma and Rocky and Fedora's project manager being fired with no replacement).

As a Fedora user, I'm really tired of being disappointed. Gonna wait for my vacation to switch to Debian.

Lemmy's devs and the .world admins have done in a month what Reddit hasn't done in it's whole existence: having a smooth and almost bug-free experience.

Jerboa feels so damn FRESH to use now!

Is there a way for a Lemmy user to block content from Meta's instance? If so, I'd love to.

"Boo hoo tankies bad, but big corpo run by billionaires who spread misinformation and intentionally act to topple legitimate governments in favor of their fascist agenda are akshually good"

Arguing with people like you (corporate shill) is a waste of time, so I'd rather have fun instead.

Best channel I discovered this year. He's based.

"I'll wait and see what happens when I let a fucking hungry brown bear enters my house before deciding on what to do with it."

I joined to learn, still not self-hosting anything, but I intend to use an 11yo Compaq laptop (i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD) as a server while I'm still practicing. I intend to self-host a lemmy instance and a nextcloud server.

Thanks for everything you guys have been sharing I've already got some good leads, gonna try out YunoHost for starters

Either matey or uwufication sound like fun malicious compliance.

It has become way smoother the last few hours. The work you guys from .world and Lemmy's devs have been doing is amazing!

On the 3rd meme recycle people wil get bored already. It probably takes less than a month to happen, as long as the "community strike" continues.
