Reddit changes the rules to make sitewide protests much more difficult. Moderators will now have to get admin approval when switching a subreddit from public to private or when adding a NSFW tag.
I shit on the opportunity? Dude, I don’t think you understood my comment at all, especially since you got so defensive in your response.
Let’s try and take a breath and relax. Let me know if something I said hurt/disrespected you and I’ll address it since it wasn’t my intention to offend anyone.
First, I visit Lemmy daily and comment all the time. Am I not a true Lemmy user because I don’t post? I personally think that’s a silly thing to say.
Second, I never even mentioned the posts here being the issue. You just assumed that, dude. My issue is entirely the lack of people. Sorry that wasn’t clearer in my what I wrote
Finally, if I’m honest, I don’t think this place is better than reddit. It may one day be but I don’t think it is yet. I hope I’m allowed to have that opinion here.
Something else I think is that the demographic of the userbase is a lot more similar/less diverse than it ever was on reddit. Again, I’m not even saying that’s a good or bad thing. They’re just realities we should try and understand. It could be both. I just find the hate for reddit to be over the top and I think it clouds people’s view of reality. You’re welcome to disagree. We could even have a nice chat about it!
I’m of the belief that if we want this place to be better than reddit we need to truly try and welcome people we disagree with into the community so everyone feels like they’re included even if they’re not always posting or commenting or even visiting or whatever. ;)
I mean, maybe I should just ask, are people here mainly for a defederated social network - and what does that mean to you? I’ve kinda always been looking for a good healthy community - I hear the Internet used to be way better at that before - and I felt like reddit showed that their communities were fake and ripe for turning on themselves. This place seems identical in that way.
Sorry if I could’ve communicated that better in this message or the last one
