If the internet has a future, it's on the Fediverse. We work around capitalism to avoid enshittification, or we let it defer our future further.
In the meantime, the Fediverse needs to get shiny and intuitive. The sign that something is cumbersome and hard to use is people saying "it's not that bad".
Friendship ended with Mastodon
My new best friend is Bluesky
why the fuck does no one change the trashass looking shadowed white impact font default text treatment on the meme generator
That takes effort and would invalidate it as a shitpost.
Mastodon may or may not be good (I don't use it), but the fact that it segments off users into different groups means it will never be a twitter replacement. The fact that twitter is essentially "public" and all sorts of people from different areas interact was basically the whole point of it.
Bluesky seems pretty nice so far and it has real momentum. Mastodon seems more along the lines of what Google+ turned into.
Mastodon doesn’t silo its users, that’s what federation is for. Everything you post on the public timeline is essentially public for everyone that’s on a federated instance that hasn’t gotten blocked.
I'm just dreading the inevitable monetization. These spaces are fun in their alpha state. But it's just a matter of time before there's a "Let AI help you spam Shrimp Jesus to your friends" button and a "Pay $5 to override the Block function" feature.
Mastodon is social media where no one comments or likes anything.
It’s like a modern art masterpiece.
Had to look up bluesky. Posts are called skeets 🤣
If the userbase of mastodon is even remotely similar to that of lemmy, I sure as fuck am glad I joined Bluesky instead
My Mastodon experience is far more pleasant than that of Lemmy.
My sense is Mastodon is far less left leaning (but still left of center) but it may just be a product of who I'm following and the tags I'm following.

Begging the question of what you think constitutes the political "center", given how fash everything has become.
The actual center, which never moves even as extremists come and go, would be a little to the right of Elizabeth Warren, though not by much.
I'm too tired to hash that out with you.
Might be cause you're bouncing between so many social media services
You're always welcome to go back to Reddit if you don't like it here.
You're not, though. Reddit is Bots Only
Everyone something something bot
I did. The userbase in most of the subs there is warmer, not hostile, and much, MUCH less gatekeepy.
If lemmy ever wants to grow and actually succeed, I don't see it happening with people acting like they are acting now.
I've had the exact opposite experience except people are anti blsky and reddit. That isn't hostile.
I've had terrible experience with mainly tankies, which infest this site to its core. That was what mainly made it so hostile. Aversion to bluesky and reddit made it very gatekeepy
