can we shout out to the fediverse developers, for making the fediverse possible
shout out to the lemmy developers for not making us be stuck on the other site
shout out to mastodon devs for making us have a better life than on Twitter
shout out to the pixelfed devs for allowing a actual photography platform to exist
shout out to the peertube devs for helping us not be stuck on youtube until the end of time
ETA: Shout out to the server operators who make the stuff be done
Yes but how do we make it into the mainstream?
“How do we ruin what we have.”
Just enjoy it.
Gatekeeping only helps keep the big tech oligarchs strong. If we want to lessen big techs influence we will need to be more welcoming here.
by making that choosing an instance is easy
i think it maybe by a automated quiz which asks you basic stuff and you get the answer
It’s not like Mastodon; there aren’t superior communities. Outside of hexbear or .ml, there’s no meaningful difference between lemmy.social and lemmy.zip you just join one and follow what you want of all the options.
The part the general public isn’t ready for is curating their own feed.
There’s no AI shoving things at you so you can doomscroll. They want that.
There’s also no ads paying for the servers, so we keep is small and enough of us dontate to keep it runnings.
You get a couple million twitter/reddis assholes over here burning server costs up with not donating shit; the nice, quiet, pleasant community we have goes to shit.
Don’t borrow trouble.
I’ll keep repeating this: When people will stop caring about the “convenience” of mainstream social media and move to the fedi, whe can destroy the entire world economy and build something fair where creators can live of their art and content. Everything is ready, thanks to the hard work of thousands of devs, and people wont lose anything from what they enjoy from social media, they just won’t be a product anymore for the techno-fascist tech giants.
If you don’t want this to change, then you need to help:
we are in the 750th upvote, thank y’all for upvoting
Lemmy should be getting a cut from all of those ISP’s out there.
Bookwyrm ! Funkwhale !
People should give the most money to the Lemmy devs but I think most is actually given to the largest server admins.
Unityposting? Well well, maybe there is still hope.
Don’t just say how much you love them. Donate to your instances monthly and make it easier for them to be sustainable.
shoutout to mbin and friendica devs when
shout out to mbin for making new ideas
shout out to friendica for making the facebook alternative
Danke!
I should use Friendica more (or, like, at all), but I’m lazy.
I just don’t have friends to ica.
shout!
let it all out!
These are the things i could do without.
Thank you to all the developers and instance administrators! 💓
(Shame on those who stir up controversy for ideological reasons, seeking the worst in people who dedicate their time to improving the technology that enables the use of an open social web! 👿🤬)
This post is spiraling out of control with disrespectful behavior.
Locked.
