If federation works the way it's claimed to, then if we migrate even the bad parts of reddit here it should be fine.
Lemmy is turning into an elitist cesspool.

Lots of edgelords here like "I don't want the reddit plebs here" as though they weren't happily one of them a couple years ago.
Let them come over. Put the idea of federation to the test. Isn't that one of the major features of federation, if there are a bunch of shitty people you can just defederate or use a different community?
If federation does what it claims then it'll only be an improvement.
I agree with people saying not to force people here if they don't wanna be (not that we could), but the people saying that folks still on reddit are there because they inherently prefer the reddit application UX is crazy. They prefer the content in reddit. And they have a point.
Folks here are way more insufferable than reddit. Just the other day there was a post being like "why do reddit users hate Lemmy?" And linked a reddit post about it. But the comments on the reddit post were considered, nuanced, and polite; while the comments on the Lemmy post were a bunch of neckbeards crying about how terrible reddit users are.
TLDR y'all need to look in the mirror.
Edit: typo degenerate → defederate
I mean, if your IDE does it for you, is it really that much better that it's shorter?
There are so few native desktop apps these days, it's all on the web.
And the browser can glean a lot more about user interaction than just web traffic, like where you hover, what parts of the page you're interacting with, etc.
That's why I said that (combined with phone), Google probably knows more.
But it's probably a pretty close competition
This is America and in free to pee on whoever I want to! /s
Honestly, in my experience since I fully moved to Lemmy:
Almost any subreddit is more mature than any Lemmy channel.
This isn't just number of users (but that's a huge problem that has been mentioned here a lot), it means that the chance you'll run into a mod who is a tinpot despot is pretty high, and there is nothing you can do about it if you're not willing to sit alone in a ~~ghost town~~ alternate community.
The fact that you deleted the post for "misinformation" shows that you're a joke of a mod.
The fact that you're still a mod shows that Lemmy is a joke of a platform.
The fact that you're still so butthurt over it shows that you're a joke of a person.
Do grow up, will you?
I've seen enough EMT Tiktok to know that I need a flared base.
So I'ma have to go with screwball but upside down

Theme
Create a new sport that you think should be added to the next (or some future) Olympic games.
I've heard that the Olympics are currently happening, so I figured why not celebrate this by telling the Olympic committee how dumb they are for passing over your new idea for an Olympic sport!

Theme
Try to recreate a classic exploitable meme using AI!
I'm gonna switch up the scoring a little for this challenge, so be sure to read the score section:
- Most ambitious: the most complex meme or the meme that I (a layman) feels would be very difficult to describe via prompt.
- Most recognizable: the meme is the easiest to identify, and is the most accurate to the original
- Do not include the name of the meme in the prompt: the challenge is to find a novel way to recreate the meme, not just get the model to spit out an image it was trained on. You can use words that are in the name of the meme, but avoid telling the model to just make the meme.

We already have the same problem here. Some of our major communities have belligerent mods on problematic instances.
We're not solving that problem, we're just making it easier to hide from it via defederation.
