I've never understood how or why this is an issue.
Shortly after Spez's petulant AMA, I ran across a link for Lemmy. org. It looked interesting, so I followed it. I poked around a bit, and it still looked interesting, so I picked an instance and created an account. I played with it a bit, then I went back and found a different instance that looked interesting and created an account there too. And I just kept reading and posting, just like I'd done on Reddit (and half a dozen different sites before that). Some instances came and went and I lost some accounts and created others and eventually settled into a few that I like best, and just read and posted and didn't leave. The end.
But it seems that every time I turn around, someone's going on about the hardships of moving to a different site and all the difficulties to be overcome and yadda yadda yadda, and I just don't get it. At all.
Consider that we live in a world where Trump was elected twice and you'll start to get an idea of what the issue is
Your life must be hard now, right? At every corner of every street, at every TV station, in the faces of others you must see the guy that you hate and you can't do anything about it.
Life will be harder for everyone
