A great example of what I’m talking about.

“Disagree? You’re a Nazi”

You’re cheapening the word and helping them become normalized.

The real problem is that there are crazy people who define anybody right of them as a Nazi.

But, we’re not ready to have that conversation yet

It’s a standard terms of service and a verbal “commitment” which isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.

I’m sure you’ll find the exact same wording on substack’s tos.

The problem is that what social media denizens call Nazi and what Ghost and substack call Nazi are all wildly different things.

Reddit in a nutshell

Not deleted here.

You’ve fallen victim to the people who need a /s to recognize irony.

The same people that were, only seconds ago, laughing at the same joke.

Everyone who is like “we only want more people who understand the fediverse” are is stupid.

I can talk to computers but not people, we need all kinds here 🥳

Someone forked Infinity and made a Lemmy client, called Eternity: https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.toldi.infinityforlemmy/

I grew up when the Internet was essentially a bunch of forum communities and 10k people was a lot of people. Something Awful felt massive with 300k registered users.

You don’t need 150,000,000 people on a subreddit to have a good community.

Communities are far better when you can recognize the names of people and remember then from previous interactions. On Reddit, you’ll probably never talk to the same person twice.

You can’t have a community full of bots if there are only a few hundred people who all know each other.

No thanks. Anything that requires that much work to bake is not appealing to me.

Sheesh, we went from .129 to .189 and I got rooftop solar in protest (which is only going to burn my own house down).

That’s pretty close, the Permissive Action Link code was 00000000 for about 20 years.

This hamster is clearly in the know…

I think it’s because we here in the technical nerdy spaces know the value of a cooties shot…
