Nothing better than looking for some good NSFW content, going to the top of all time, and seeing nothing but net neutrality posts
I'm glad those were there but they did lead to some funny situations
I thought that too - even moreso how much it took me out of the show to see them take on three klingons per person. Still a great show and decent episode, but that bit did take me out a bit
Noob Q: why is it always anarchist vs authoritarian? Surely there's a middle ground?
Post some yourself :) we have to move beyond consumption if we want these communities to grow
Yeah it's frustrating - but I guess that's the price you pay when you join an experimental community. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon
Thanks for your efforts! I myself am going that piracy moves to the fediverse permanently, where it's more independent
"Why is the best case scenario Joe Biden?"
Sometimes it helps me to remember that many people are working toward different goals. You were likely looking for community. They were likely looking for content to consume. They are incapable of understanding your passion because they never saw reddit as something important - a community. Instead, to them it was a place for cheap and easy entertainment.
Thus, in their minds they're justified - why would anyone be so passionate about their source of entertainment being cut off? But of course they didn't see what you saw. Of course you would be passionate - your community was being monetized.
I think a lot of people here on the fediverse are a little more like-minded to you. We see the internet as a service and opportunity to connect. It's not television or radio. It's a network of voices, and hopefully democratic.
I hope this helps :)
I agree with this. Not only are most redditors and internet goers just lurking for entertainment - the fediverse is also currently a clunker of a project being held together with duct tape and WD40. Until it matures (which I believe it will) it just won't be attractive to most casual users.
Currently, we (people in the fediverse) are probably mostly people driven by curiosity or passion. We really shouldn't expect the masses to follow quite yet
Do you have a source for this?
