I Hope Rexxitors Tone Down the Low-Hanging Comment Chains on Lemmy. (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I loved Reddit for what it is, but nothing made me back out of a post faster than seeing the top 3 parent threads as a regurgitation of the same inside jokes, pun-chains, and so on.

Damn, we're already gatekeeping in here? Nice.

It really is fascinating though, having a front row seat to what really is a massive tectonic shift in the history of the internet. Real curious to see how this all plays out. I've been online since the early 90's so I've seen tons come and go: AOL, yahoo, slashdot, livejournal, myspace, digg, etc, and this one feels different for some reason, but maybe its just me.

I think it feels different because it's not website B rolling in as a replacement for website A. It's an entire new system for social media, so the way you understand and use it has to shift a bit. I find it exciting, a lot more than if we just shifted to a generic centralised reddit alternative.

This is what web 3.0 is about.

Not crypto, but decentralization.

That's crazy, we shouldn't even allow anyone here unless they had at least 1,000 karma on Reddit.
