A colorful image showing 8 global switch suggestions presented in three columns. Upper left is the fediverse logo with text Join the fediverse #globalswitchday. In total we see 16 platform logo's in their respected brand color and underneath each logo the name of the platform. All switch combinations have an arrow in the middle pointing to the right (from to). In the left column: X to Mastodon, Facebook to friendica. In the middle column WhatsApp to Signal, Instagram to Pixelfed and YouTube to PeerTube. In the right column: Reddit to Lemmy, Facebook Messenger to Signal and TikTok to loops.video.

    Acts like a psyop to stop us finding solutions. Now, I will respond and you should too.

    That's Lemmy in a nutshell. Guillotine and Luigi memes are constantly repeated because they know that no one's actually going to act on that stuff, but any time anyone suggests a practical means to weaken the oligopoly people come out of the woodwork to shut it down.

    You think? I consider these memes more like a reminder of our global to-do list. It doesn't mean we can't selfhost a matrix server at the same time.
