    This is their way of destroying global communication. We the people were organising using their sites. That obviously couldn’t happen so they threw the toys out of the pram and its worked. There is less of a global forum with reddit and twitter fkd.

      Damn. I never thought about it like that. You’re right, but at the same time I see Lemmy way more focused on important matters we should pay attention to. With actual discussion within, not just bullshit bots slinging nonsense to steer the conversations. Granted lemmy def leans a certain way depending on where you are but it’s mostly what the majority is already thinking. They may have fucked themselves in that aspect. Driving us to be more centralized with less noise to interfere. Idk, but good point.

      That’s gonna backfire because now we have alternatives that aren’t owned by companies that can be coerced by any two bit dictatorship with profits. They’re driving people right to.the fediverse with is way worse for them

      umm… this “we the people” shit needs to come to a halt. Your “we” doesn’t include “me”, so the “we” part is overreach.

      “You A Person” I can buy - but “we” ain’t “we” pal.

        If it’s a group organisation without any restriction to entry then it is the common person’s voice. Do you not think that together we can work towards a better tomorrow?
