minus-squareComment105@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down2·edit-25 months agoYep, that’s right. That’s what I mean. We’re doing nothing with this framework. It’s going nowhere. We’re not dethroning or replacing or reshaping shit. Lemmy will be done and dead before Trump’s term is, even if he follows the term limit and hands it off in 4 years.
minus-squarejol@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoI don’t believe that. Lemmy continues to slowly grow. It’s not dieing at all.

minus-squareComment105@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoI thought the purpose of the fediverse was to create strong independent communities that cannot be subverted by corporate (reddit) interests. But without numbers there is no strength, no purpose for organization. Then what are we doing here? Mild entertainment?
minus-squarejol@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoWhile you have a point, any big enough network becomes prey of commercial interests and propaganda…
