Also mod @sunspider@lemmy.world can you change the name of this community to Lemmy.world - Server or something?
βHow can people keep doing what theyβve habitually done because itβs what theyβre used to?β ask all the folks who are posting in a community thatβs clearly described as not being the place for those discussions but people are doing it anyway.
People are generally the weak link in any system.
My feed is literally filled with Lemmy.world@Lemmy.world
posts because of this (not that I have a problem with that though lol).
These nice discussions really should be in their dedicated communities as you suggest
Search for communities that interest you, subscribe to them, instead of Local feed, look at Subscribed, maybe even All, then sort by New or Hot. Because it's still growing, New actually comes up with some good stuff without going by too quickly.
I've been on reddit for almost a decade and a half. Never have I seen so many users gilding pro corporate reddit/pro spez comments. It is almost always the former. It's very unusual and makes me a tad suspicious. I'm not sure if reddit has evolved into a platform overflowing with users that I truly don't synchronize with, or perhaps reddit is virtually augmenting these posts/comments, increasing bot posts to augment activity, etc. I accept either or and for that and many other reasons I have contently moved on from the platform. It's just not for me anymore and has been fracturing into an environment that lost its luster. Too many common folk have saturated the platform, too many bots, too much corporate shenanigans, too many miserable users, too little civility, too much ignorance and a lack of analytical literacy. The fediverse has given a breath of fresh air and something of nostalgia from the early days of reddit. I do think this is the way forward with time and I'm here for it.
They gonna stay there until they feel the real consequences. Most people just don't get what's the real problem. I'm happy in the fediverse, feels like I make better use of my time, instead of scrolling like an idiot.
It's pretty simple. Most people won't do anything unless it directly impacts them.
This has been true time and time again throughout history as well. People only revolt or start an uprising when things get so bad that it directly influences them. Even then most won't do anything unless they aren't able to ignore it anymore.
Of course that site is like that now.
Everyone who cares left...
From the fediverse side of things, good. The bootlickers can stay there until the whole thing gets shutter, people with sense can come here.
Who cares lol
While yes I'm gone from Reddit, it's still sad for me to see communities I once cared about to have ended up as they have.
It's peek, not peak.
This is not reddit... Lol
I realized that after I posted it. I was able to fix it in the title even! This is so much better than Reddit.
Yeah unfortunately with today's attention span no protest really works
