There will always be two types of users: people looking to connect and people looking to be entertained. Fedi is better at the former and commercial better at the latter.
People get so weird about Dansup.
If Mastodon/Fedi was at the scale those platforms are we would see more harassment, absolutely. It remains to be proven but I think federation enables a lot more eyes on content which implies harassing material can be removed more quickly.
Federation/decentralization solves a lot of problems over centralized social media, but ultimatley you can't engineer human nature.
I had a response typed out but have a question, is this feature pulling in comment feeds from every community the instance is federated with? Or only from communities the individual user is subscribed to?
Don't get me wrong I am a huge fan of Piefed overall. I think you misunderstood my second point a little, I don't want to be "exposed to new things" in my social media per-se, I want to read my chosen subscriptions (with my chosen social groups) and move on.
I see the "issue" of "divided" communities coming up a lot. But to me, the variety of perspectives and moderation styles on the same topic is a major benefit of the Fediverse (to the point I might describe it as its greatest strength) especially when it come to non-technical or social topics like politics. For example Lemmy.ca users are going to have very different perspectives about US politics than Lemmy.us (hypothetically). I'm not sure that it benefits those users to centralize the discussion (not saying that's what's happening exactly but it is something I see come up a lot).
The reason behind his weird android haircut is that he thought it looked Caesar-esque.
Two reasons:
-
There are many steps between "I never wish to see any unmoderated content ever again" and "I wish to see unmoderated content in my feed every day". I don't want to block Lemmy.world communities but I also will go insane if I read those comments every day.
-
I can't know what those communities are in advance of their being inserted. I don't want the default option for content in my main feed to be "opt out".
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I kind of hate this? I think most communities are lazily moderated and I don't want to have every goon's unmoderated takes on whatever the topic is forced in front of my eyeballs.
I haven't seen anyone mention lemmy-explorer yet, it's a good way to find communities too:
Exactly, not being beholden to one set of rule-deciders is not so much an "issue" as a distinct feature of the Fediverse.

Yes absolutely, and that's why I don't think commercial ~~social~~ media will die. But I do think it will come to more be associated with activities gambling or vaping.
