I enjoyed helping this place grow and doing my part to discuss here but I disagree with this decision and I’m going to evaluate looking for a different home instance.

Seems to work good enough!
The advertisement model needs to die. No one wants to have their experience corrupted by panels trying to sell you something. We can find other ways to fund the network
Thanks. I’ll try to kickstart mine once I have some free time.
There is ALWAYS the possibility to enshittify anything. Meta is trying to infiltrate Mastodon already.
Use Reddit’s power delete suite. Be careful though, Reddit’s admins are really really mad at ur right now and they will roll back partially or totally your messages, so keep an eye on it and run the power delete suite multiple times, before June 30th
Maybe indeed it’s a bit too early c:
Let’s hope for a future where the Internet is the vibrant and diverse place it used to be before the big tech walled gardens.
Heh, never been into Star Trek but I love how you guys have a Lemmy instance themed around it. Also Spotify was born as a peer to peer network and it still became what we have today. So I’m kinda cautious with that.
That’s great. Love to see Kbin thriving but I wish more instances came online. I know that at least fedia.io exists
That’s the thing, I don’t want one instance with too much control over others. That is a gateway to reintroducing corporate corruption into the Fediverse
still don’t get that unless a certain instance de-federalizes others en masse, you’re still gonna be able to access it’s content and contribute from your instance. Sadly it just happened with beehaw.org, one large instance defederating another. That’s a pretty big wall.
Although, in general,I wouldn’t be worried. Even if a certain instance is getting big, you are still not subject to the whims of some venture capitalist corp in silicon valley. Sadly corporations love to control everything and always end up giving small startups offers that are too good to refuse and they either take it over or shelf it forever. I really don’t want corporate control to return to the web. Reddit swallowed all the forums due to how convenient it was.
they are the same kind of people who don’t mind kernel level anticheats.
I know. It’s a corporate hellscape and the culmination of Web 2.0 ever since 2014 ended. I just hope it crashes and burns and all the bootlickers go back to Tiktok or somewhere they will not disturb others’ quality of life. They are the ones who perpetuate the redditor neckbeard stereotype and are a burden right now.
Keep in mind Beehaw defederated us so no communications between them and lemmyworld
I also second this, I quite like Kbin’s tightness myself. Could be an optional theme for the web app but I understand the Lemmy devs are busy fixing the issues that were unearthed by the population explosion. However this could be arguably classified as a more general Lemmy issue rather than a lemmy.world issue which this community is for
Bad idea to jump from proprietary platform 1 to proprietary platform 2
it’s going to rapidly become a poorly moderated dumpster and people will eventually stop visiting until it becomes a zombie forum
at least it gave Lemmy the kick it needed, and the quantity and quality of posts will simply never be the same. Also Reddit, FUCK YOUR REDESIGN AND FUCK YOUR APP. Javascript bloat that doesn’t respect you.
Wasn’t it hosted in Finland? Or have things changed?
