Can we all stop the in-fighting for a minute and realise how awesome the platform we are on is?

We are forming communities on the realized image of the internet that we were told we would have back in the 80s and 90s.

You can make your own home on the web and have your own niche community, not owned by any corporation, while still being connected to the wider internet.

This feels like something out of a sci-fi movie.

To me it feels pretty much like reddit so far. Maybe I've just gotten very good at ignoring reddit's corporate bullshit though.

At least every third post isn’t a flagrant ad poorly hidden as “this cool thing I discovered, you might find it cool too!”

I'm so glad I've had an adblocker for so long <_<

Guess I was referring more to the posts that were trying to be passed off as not an ad that were definitely trying to shill for something.
