Cake day: June 9th, 2023

  • I’m honestly not “gone” yet, this is my first day on Lemmy. I’m still a little uncertain. Here’s what’s on my mind:

    • Reddit isn’t, and never has been, profitable. That means that things we don’t like are only going to get more and more likely for them to do, because eventually investors will stop paying for them to do the same thing, which we mostly do like.

    • Lemmy looks like a good alternative, and I’d really like to see reddit die faster so all the content I like moves here.

    • At the same time, decentralization isn’t a silver bullet. It doesn’t mean my experience on Lemmy will get better, it just means the individual server I pick has a lot more control over me. Will I lose my identity / get booted off the server because someone decides to stop operating it? Or doesn’t like a comment I write? Etc etc
