I hear you, but what make me stick with Lemmy and try my best to make it work is the whole concept of decentralized social media. We can't just handle the power back to big techs, see what facebook did in the whole trump election scandal. or what Twitter is becoming. The fediverse now is the only alternative we have, it is the last stand against a corporate controlled internet.
And I am tired to pretend social media does not dictates the real world trends, it does and it is here to stay. There is no more separation from irl and internet.
I got downvoted to hell
What's wrong with downvoting? Ain't it expected when the community allow downvotes?
Do you think everyone should agree with you always?
Then I got a 4-day ban cos I suggested “Tankies give socialists like me a bad name”. Fucking hell fire. I’m not going near any of their subs again.
I am curious, what current of socialism do you subscribe to?
Brasil numero 1 Penta Campeão!
Ancap? Lmfao
I had an acc there. Too bad. :(
Initially they were not so upfront about it. Things changed as they experienced more of the fediverse.
There are lot of people working for free to make it work by trying to improve it. It is easy to complain from the confort of my chair at home. And so society becomes more cursed each day.
@cashews_best_nut@lemmy.world see? there are idiots from all sides.
That's why some people tend to become reactive and aloof.
Why are they atacking Jordan then?
No of course not but I subscribe to the original Reddiquette philosophy. Downvotes arne’t for disagreement. They were originally a form of user-moderation to stop spam. Unfortunately about a decade ago after the Digg exodus the users of Reddit forgot that original usage and so you’d end up being downvoted and not knowing why. It doesn’t foster debate or discussion. It’s a cheap way to snipe someone down without being responsible or engaging them.
I never, ever downvote unless it’s obvious link spam. If I feel strongly enough I tell the person they’re wrong and why. That’s what I believe in.
That's actually very nice, I agree with you. TIL.
Still on that yet? Move on dude, the commies instances are blocked by everyone, it is not like they even exist.
username checks out I guess.
I had to click

While the researcher is someone with some really solid knowledge and experience I don't think he was fair in his analysis.
No, tankie… I don’t think you’ve read any anarchist literature at all.
so now we are gonna start calling names. Cool, very mature.
Source?
forcing Lenin to order Trotsky
Sources?
which genocide?
I was harassed by tankies as well some weeks ago.
how they harassed you?
who is they?
so what are your instance on the genocide Israel is doing?
🥰
Yes
Lol
Election year in the US and EU while Russia is invading a neighbor and China possibly preparing to do the same.
Interesting you don't mention Israel doing a fucking GENOCIDE and the USA supporting it.
You left, but Beehaw being willing to give teeth to the concept of defederation is the reason I joined. I don’t think the decision hurt their user-count. It definitely helped distinguish their culture from the rest of the Fediverse.
Fair.

you are aware that what you linked is up to mastodon to implement? nothing to do with Lemmy.
Healthy competition can make them grow better too.
how?
Akkoma support activitypub groups. Properly.
And akkoma works perfectly with Lemmy where mastodon doesnt even understand groups
Akkoma only shows the topic OP in your timeline, when you click you can see all comments. While mastodon boosts every reply flooding your timeline.
Akkoma suports activitypub articles, So you can actually read lemmy posts without leaving akkoma. While Mastodon only shows the article title and link, you are obliged to leave mastodon to read it.
seriously? do you follow any large group in mastodon? do you prefer your timeline flooded with a single group discussion?
Here on Lemmy you prefer the comments
timeline?
I mean, mastodon doesn't have a method for groups. It just happens to show federated ActivityPub note
type
Libertarian Socialism. In the UK the closest parties/groups would be Black Rose Labour and/or Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour. The countries closest to my beliefs are Denmark, Iceland and Norway.
I see, Anarchism. I like it, mainly Kropotkin. Although I disagree with some points IRL mainly of my daily comrades are anarchists. I am what you would call a tankie even though I despise tankies.
However, the people on Lemmy.ml took further offence when I suggested DPRK wasn’t a democratic country and they trotted out a list of articles on how democratic it really was. Then I was given a bunch of Stalin emojis of him pulling heart shapes with his hands.
I understand, and I think this shouldn't happen. A Marxist should be open to honest debate. On my view DPKR is way more democratic than say USA. I don't like this apologetic view of Stalin too. But I don't subscribe to Imperialistic propaganda neither. I think somewhat I am priveleged living outside the axis North America x West Europe, those places have suffered with A LOT of propaganda, and it is hard to see it from inside.
I’m not a fan of autocratic dictatorships and I was dog-piled and taunted with a bunch of Stalinist and DPRK memes. Because apparently you’re not truly left-wing unless you worship Stalin and Kim.
DPKR isn't a dictatorship though. Kim alone holds less power in his country than Biden for instance. Also he was elected. DPKR have some sort of direct democracy that most western world doesn't even dream about.
I would have been happy to debate these points with them but unfortunately my reticence of autocratic dictatorships was considered far worse than what was directed at me in response.
These people really gives socialism a bad name after all. I agree with you.
It is wrong
Lol Taiwan is part of China and all NATO nations agree.
You are too dramatic. What happened is that many left beehaw (me included). You can see beehaw has a lot less activity now then it had last year.
