I just use Lemmy now. Used to be very active on reddit and now I'm very active here. I really like that no big tech corp are running the server here. Something feels very wrong about big tech forcing itself into the middle of people's conversations, specially when we have seen how immature, greedy, insensitive and stupid those people are.
How about yourself?
While it is really good that big corporations aren't running servers here, I still believe there could be some open source or non profit organisation contributing to the lemmy instances so that we have some really good, stable and secure servers that are not likely to go down ever.
And hell yes, it feels good now that we've seen us transitioning from the corporates exploiting us from our investments on their services as our opinions and thoughts. Capitalists need to stay away from social media. It seriously is where it really asks for freedom of expression.
