100%, I was mad about the api changes but realistically I would have stayed

But seeing the interviews he gave was just too much. Especially when he was talking about monetizing people who say things on Reddit they wouldn't say to their therapist. Like, that group specifically you want to milk? Fuck spez

Sadly no, show me a political party that the us, china or India could realistically vote for that would substantially reduce emissions in the next 10 years

You haven't?

the libertarian party yes, because they literally took over the us national party

the actual ideology, no

yeah, was starting to like it here, but honestly if any instance will just defederate the second something inconvenient happens... we won't have a site with good content that will keep people around

100%, they are really shooting themselves in the foot by defederating

things like this, especially right now, are what will limit the appeal of lemmy and the fediverse in general sadly. People no longer have access to communities they like randomly due to the decision of one person at the top... almost like why people were trying to leave reddit in the first place

respectful discussions don't mean much if the person isn't arguing in good faith though right

I mean, this guy literally just said find another app - the whole point is there won't be other apps

Don't expect human nature to change just because some ceo of a different company decided to be a greedy dick, honestly

I'm giving lemmy a good try. Interface seems nice, I like the federated nature of it, we can only hope that we get more users, so I'll stick it out and see if the users come (and they should)
