X is totally toxic and lacking in any meaningful moderation it seems. Lemmy would be amazing but people seem scared to migrate here. I had joined here after reddit cracked down on 3rd party apps and would love if we could build a user base here but that seems hard
And now they're federating with Meta's sewage operation, so I may not be l9ng with the fedi.
Tech bros are like a lice infestation.
Big picture this is a good thing, though. The "fediverse" is not one thing, just like the internet - and comments like this are equivalent to someone in 1994 refusing to touch the Internet because some sites which existed on it contained porn or whatever.
The great thing about the fediverse is you can choose which elements you interact with, just like subreddits. Not into marijuana? Cool, don't go to r/trees. The only difference is there's no governing body which can shut down independent entities which push porn, Qanon, hate, etc. Don't like Threads? Me too - just don't go there. It at least offers a path for Threads users to join the decentralized world.
