What do you mean? With our scientific knowledge we can prove plants aren't sentient. They don't have Central Nervous System.

Base Debian or is there anything like Debian Server? This will be my first time setting up a server machine.

Also I've never used Debian itself, only debian-based distros (Ubuntu and Ubuntu based) and Fedora.

I don't know if it's just me, but I'm barely using reddit/twitter and now I spend most of my online time on Lemmy/Mastodon.

Plants aren't sentient and you need more plants to feed a cow (and then eat the cow) than if you just eat plant-based.

Thank you and the other admins for the thoughtful and transparent answer.

We would like to express our disappointment with the negative and threatening tone of some of these discussions

Considering that a great percentage of the Fediverse userbase are ex-users of Reddit and Twitter that left due to CEO actions, I get that they (including me) don't trust Meta or want anything to do with them. I agree that discussion should be civil nonetheless.

You may find confusing how there could be at the same communities (subreddits) with the same name in different instances. You can use the Lemmy Community Browser to find communities easily among different instances.

You're posts are visible from other Fediverse sites, like Mastodon or Kbin and you can interact with their users.

An user or an instance can block users or instances. If you have an account on lemmy.world and the instance admins blocks another instance you won't be able to see the posts or comments made from their users.

Is there anything in particular that you want to know?

I'm replacing Reddit with Lenin!! Long live the Working Class!

I can totally see that.

I'm not in a hurry to migrate, as Threads doesn't support federation yet, but is not a bad idea to keep an eye on other instances.

It's not about the data they can collect. As long as we don't use the Meta app or register in their instance we're on the clear. The problem is giving them power.

I'm not an evil ~~genius~~ shithead like Zuck, but it could go this way:

  1. They enter the Fediverse as the biggest instance.
  2. They artificially slow down connections with other instances. That way, lots of users from smaller intances will migrate to the Meta one. Only the ones concerned about our privacy will remain in independent instances.
  3. Once most of the userbase of the Fediverse is on their instance, they keep slowing it, or adding "features" only available in their app, effectively building a wall between them and the rest of instances.
  4. Finally they defederate, leaving the rest of the fediverse weaker than it was.

There are some key thoughts in this article.
