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
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
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! 👿🤬)
Thanks, Lemmy folks! I have been, and intend to continue to be, intending to put up a server.
I’m sorry, in advance, for what is going to happen to all your hard work, as Reddit craters and all the oligarch bots start coming here to manipulate the populace / control the narrative.
As I’ve been saying since Usenet and Slashdot; it was good while it lasted.
They’re already here. If someone tries to fight with you unreasonably, leave a clarifying comment and let it go. They’re not as prolific here, but if you spend any time in news or politics communities, you’ve seen them.
Good callout, thank you! A tale as old as 56k: don’t feed the trolls.
What about when one of the trolls is the dev of say piefed? 🤔
LOL.
You might want to take a closer look at the Lemmy dev before getting too excited.
There was some drama with piefed dev too recently. Seems like loads of fediverse projects are run by weirdos.
People are upset when the find out the Lemmy lead devs are like straight up authoritarian communists.
Mostly Third-Way-Reddit-liberal refugees who don’t realize they’re not progressive just because Fox News calls thier party “radical socialist leftists” constantly, these are the same people screeching that America only votes for leftists for Senate some places because there wasn’t another choice and that what b the country really wanted was moderate Dems.
Also the Piefed devs; didn’t they get caught hardcoding a block list into Piefed or something? I know there was a lemmy front end that did that (Tesseract; I made the list yay!) but not long after that Piefed got caught doing something similar but I don’t recall exactly what it was; all I remember was that I decided I no longer trust Piefed and I won’t use it. Shit I’ll try and search it and see if I can come up with a better answer
Lemmy devs aren’t communists, they’re state capitalists. The difference is they support the state, and Karl Marx said it’s not communism if there’s a state.
Piefed didn’t hardcode a blocklist, that was a hoax. There’s an auto-federation tool that only admins can use, and it has optional limits on what communities it auto-imports. People took screenshots of that code and lied that it was a blocklist.
I’m pretty sure that was Carl Marks.
Karl Marx understood the difference between communism and communists.
Yes but how do we make it into the mainstream?
