im still learning all this. but yeah having your own server could be easier. in my case the instance im on lemmy.one hasnt been affected at all by the beehaw thing. i can still see both. i see where the owners of beehaw are coming from i think, trying to stop the influx of unvetted user from sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world being able to post and comment. and they didnt say it was forever they were ope to reopening federation eventually if it works for them. they’re just trying to protect what they’ve worked so hard on.

I didnt get an elitist vibe at all from this post. just that he thinks lemmy is a better place for themselves than reddit is and explains why. their allowed to have an opinion.

im not too worried about that. i think they’ll do a fine job.

oh you know it!

LOL. thats when you put in a screwdriver and twist!

If one instance were to become “corrupt” we can just leave and go to another instance though.

well i for one hope that never happens to this place. isn’t one of the points of this place that its not really possible, with it being federated and all?

hahahahahaha also new season on July 24th woo

yeah holy shit i loved black and white. i actually tried recently to get it to run on my pc again and was actually able to play although there were some issues.

Yup I’m staying here too. It’s already feeling like home.

Fucking great song. I’m on mobile and to lazy to link it but I loved when they were asked to not swear on a live performance and well you can guess what happened.

Okay I changed my mind and found it but I’m not rewriting the comment lol https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PXB69XzOy7s There’s better and longer videos out there showing more but lazy.

That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing that.

do they have a sizable community? honestly i just assumed it was almost exclusively used for image hosting.

hell yeah!

whoaaa thats a good conspiracy.

Stay on Lemmy. Obviosuly there’s probably going to be some reasons to go back to reddit every once in a while but i think that will be less and less overtime. fuck reddit.

i feel you. i “shredded” my 13 year old account and several alts. it wasnt easy lol.

thats not happening lol

i imagine a lot of subreddits will have to deal with a loooot of spam and bullshit posts about nothing in the near future. i can’t imagine anyone worthwhile that isn’t just powertripping actually wanting to mod a large sub anymore. whats the point? you arent getting paid anything, and its not even on your terms. like wtf. fuck reddit man.

yup 100%
