MODERATORS
I hand out up votes like candy because engagement is how we're going to get new users and kill the other site. I'd rather people karma farm here than by putting money in the pockets of the ultra-rich tbh
Trust, lemmys already kind of an echo chamber, but it's our echo chamber so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You're right, the Linux propaganda is true
Downvotes don't get it. Lemmy mods ban people at the drop of a hat and this echo chamber is deafening compared to reddit (at any point in time). But at least we're not overrun with bots.
Yet. We are not overrun with bots yet
Reddit is no different. The mods there are also just unpaid volunteers who started the subs and control those subs entirely through their own personal biases.
That's only because most of Lemmy actually removes Nazis and their bootlickers.
So become the other site to kill it because it’s such a shitty place?
It's not just a shitty place, as a corporation it actively fuels shitty practices that are felt across all social media and the internet in general. I'd rather take their users and build something better with them.
It doesn't feel great when you want to make the switch just to find the analogous lemmy communities have 100-5000 members with the last post being 3 weeks ago as opposed to 100k+ with 10 posts in the last hour. The only way to fix that is with new users. Whether from the old site or not, new users is how these communities will grow and flourish. If you want to gatekeep, go ahead but I think you'll only be slowing the adoption of the fediverse and letting the problems that incentivized its creation fester.
I downvote everything to counter act you, I don't want more redditors on Lemmy, they will turn this shit into reddit
At 48k monthly active users, there's still quite a margin to become Reddit. 100k would already allow for more niche communities while being manageable.
Depending on their client this will just radicalize them into expressing their beliefs further.
downvoted because I still want to believe in your mission of no redditors.
