What are you accomplishing, right here, right now, with this comment?
The function of accounts like the one you are replying to is to encourage cynicism and inaction among otherwise anti-fascist people.
Failing that, they will try to exhaust you with “debate”.
I joined what I thought was a plain simple Star Trek Website how did I end up here please someone help
“Just keep on Lemmy. It feels like Reddit did 14 years ago.”
For better or worse this really nails it. I also think it’s a good reminder that when Reddit conquered Digg it happened over a six month period because there was like 100k users maybe total. There are so many more people involved with Reddit these days it’s going to take literal years before Lemmy is anywhere near the same level in terms of MAU.
Yeah but I think it’s childish to complain about movies “might as well not existing” if you haven’t even looked for them.
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.
LOL yes I try not to speak like a FOSSite when talking with newbies. “Arch Linux does not yet have an adequate solution for the hammer problem (when your computer is hit with a hammer) so I can’t recommend it.”
I mean, rollbacks are quite literally a feature to prevent breaking it. That said I’ve never even had to roll back once.

Elite Force is where it’s at but Klingon has it’s place for sure.
I’m not sure what this is meant to convey but I upvoted it anyway because I didn’t want to experience bij.
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?
I’m not sure but the instance was started by the reddit mods I will ask and let you know
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).
I think the most effective reply is highlighting their methodology and moving on, rather than allowing yourself to be bogged down in rebuttals. You can never convince them because they are not “debating” earnestly, and the audience they are performing for isn’t interested in following a debate and will dismiss both sides.
