Not sure if this is the right place but I need to get off Twitter/X, I would love to use Mastodon but the hurdle feels bigger than Reddit to Lemmy. The Mastodon client feels uncomfortable to me for some reason, and I guess unlike reddit/lemmy where you have a group of people talking about specific topics, I am interested in following specific people on Twitter - a fraction of whom are on Mastodon. I don’t want to support Musk or his platform but I’m struggling to find a replacement.
I guess if he starts charging for it the decision will be made for me 😅
That’s what I thought, but not keen on it having ads/subscription model. I’d be happy to pay one off but that isn’t available (at least yet). I understand the guy needs to eat, but right now I for me personally there isn’t a value add vs. the FOSS clients.
I kind of get what you’re saying, but I also think it’s a bit naive, presuming you’re also only here (as am I) because it all went so wrong with reddit. Do you want to support a platform where there’s a corporate running it rather than the community? I think that’s why a lot of people are freaking out about Threads, because the wounds are still very fresh/people have seen this play before.
If you like Threads then great, go for it, but if you are gonna hang out on lemmy where there is a culture strongly against centralisation, you’re gonna find people talking smack about the thing you happen to like.
Ich hoffe, dass sie ihm neue EU-Beitrittsgespräche nicht zugesagt haben 😬
I think the answers you will get from users who are on lemmy will tend to be positive 😁
- Old reddit redirect
- Reddit enhancement suite
Not sure how much you need these anymore 👀
Not sure just mildly infuriating 😅
Also infuriating: the number of my friends who have installed this shitty app 😑
If the headline is a question, the answer is no
Would strongly recommend a password manager. I use bitwarden, you can use self host it or not. If you don’t like bitwarden there are plenty of free options. Random password generation and sync is going to be a better practice than much else I can think of, so I’d encourage you to go for it! 😬
Kenne mer nit, bruche mer nit, fott domet 👋
Same, as much as I hope lemmy succeeds, I simultaneously hope that the API changes get reversed. Good job to those fighting for this over there
Sounds obvious in hindsight 🙈 thanks!
I don’t disbelieve you per se but could you point me towards some evidence of authoritarian governments funding him?
Would you mind sharing some? 😃
There are some good Telegram accounts for this if you want an alternative to Twitter, perhaps there are fedi options too but I’m unfortunately unaware if so
Are many other servers proactively anti-lgbt?
Sorry to ruin the fun but it stands for “Personal Computer Memory Card International Association”
There is a joke around the name, as you said, though :)
