Look at here and the people who complain about it being too hard to figure out are the ones complaining about “I can’t use muh slurs, this is awful.”
“The left of today is very much in favour of censorship to avoid “harm.” This makes those of us in the middle very wary of signing up to any partisan media.” /u/decidedlysticky23
/u/misshapensteed claims he isn’t far right, but explictly only posts on PoliticalCompassMemes and TheLeftCantMeme and KotakuInAction.
If they are too stupid to figure out we know they’re lying, they’re too stupid to figure out lemmy.
I don’t understand the reddit users who are claiming they don’t want to join Lemmy over political reasons. They could create their own instance with whatever rules they want and push whatever political agenda they want. The fact that the platform is decentralized means everyone can get with they want.
True. Let’s be honest though, in a world where people are used to huge centralized platforms like Twitter and Reddit, the Fediverse is unfamiliar and confusing. Not sure what can be done about it other than educating people. But there may always be a slight barrier to entry.
They’re just not smart enough to understand how it works.
Hey!
…Why do you have an 88 in your username?
Some people are born in 1988, lol. I appreciate the concern over dogwhistles but I would encourage you to report content you see that is not nice. If you plan to have a conversation with someone, please give them the benefit of the doubt.
:) Deal.
Yep! That’s the thing about federated platforms that seems really hard to drill into people’s heads. Go make your own thing. It’s genuinely not that hard.
Weak people need a strongman. They want to have someone tell them where to go instead of forging their own path. They absolutely love the idea of being told what to do.
