I don't know how well lemmy sorts by "level of interaction relative to number of subscribers". For instance on r/all, you'd see a post with 15 upvotes on r/really-specific-thing-from-the-town-i-live-in-with-500-subs right next to a r/askreddit thread with 30k upvotes. In order to see smaller communities, it seems like I have to be on new or hot, but it never seems to make its way up to active.
Honestly if money has to be a part of it I would rather just pay some instance maintainer a monthly/yearly fee.
Isn't it just a competition to see who can talk the fastest? I watched a video of it once and it seemed so dumb. It's like the entire thing is just finding loopholes

Kinda refuse to believe that every single person on threads is going to post low quality content. I'd argue that content made by a bunch of people not constantly thinking about the fediverse will help the fediverse. Let's be honest, lots of the content posted on fediverse apps are somewhat forced because we all want this to work.
Well nothing probably. I think Instagram collects as much as threads does. My point was just that if you're only on lemmy or mastodon or whatever, you won't have to worry about the data they're collecting from their own users.
I started just taping over the lights of anything in my bedroom. I figure if it also makes a goofy noise when it turns on, thats how I know its frickin' on.
I've seen so many people that want to defederate from Threads because they're scared it will get their personal data somehow. Just goes to show that not a lot of people understand how this technology works yet. The only data threads will see is the stuff you post publicly.
preach. one time I asked how to get my beard to grow more color and the internet told me fucking "diet and exercise".
