Oh I am on another instance that is not my concern, I am just stating my disappointment and confusion over this instance and why maybe I am not so happy with them being our mouthpiece.
But they arenβt. Itβs the fediverse. The whole thing is joining or making platform instances that align to you.
Itβs not a bad thing to leave lemmy.world. The fact you can leave or start your own is a feature.

Starting to seem a lot like the EEE (Embrace Extend Extinguish) we were warned about with threads, not exactly the same since lemmy.world isn't a big-tech corpo but there are similarities, also it's kind of ironic that this instance also hasn't cut off threads like the others have.
