I’ll be passing on that.
I don’t enjoy my content being the same format as advertising.
Glad to hear of any federated internet updates though.
Do you feel the same way about Mastadon? Twitter was the "look at me" social media. I feel like you just shout things into the void and people give you points for agreeing with you. Its impossible to carry on a real conversation on Twitter (a proper threaded message board like Lemmy excels at this). It seems tied in with the cult of personality whereas we need to shift to a culture of ideas.
I'm probably just a stupid millennial who doesn't get it, but Lemmy seems like the only really good fediverse structure.
Fully agree, I have masto/pixelfed client on my phone but Lemmy is the the one I used most by a long shot.
Idk why it is but on other platforms I feel like I'm intruding on someone else's conversation, but I can freely reply here no problem (to some extent).
Right. And if you say something constructive, we can respond, and if you don't, the conversation branch dies.
Twitter/Mastadon do feel weird in that way, but I am thankful for Mastadon's success even if it's not really for me.
