Yeah but usually it’s just “try piefed”, with a smug tone so it’s kind of hard to take people seriously.
Aside from that, adoption becomes a hassle for everything fediverse due to the whole pick your server thing, I went from fmhy to nsfw to dbzero to cafe… I’d be so happy if picking a server would not require so much trial and error.
Yeah like… What’s the point of using xitter/meta alternatives if the servers are still going to federate with them? I’d use the normal apps if I wanted that.
Here in México we have a say that goes like:
The worst enemy of a mexican is another mexican
You connect the dots
This is being overly simplistic IMO. Lemmy is not a direct copy paste of reddit, just the idea is the same.
But he’s not wrong on a practical level, the content is almost the same on reddit and here, even the memes are being reposted from there to here and then reposted over and over.
To me, seeing the same content multiple times on the All feed makes it seem emptier, like I can just check it once a day and I won’t be missing anything. I blame the accounts that post content on multiple instances/communities instead of posting once and letting it federate and the reposters who just recycle content over and over… maybe those who keep blindly upvoting too.
A normal user doesn’t have any incentive to leave reddit if they are going to find the same things.
If there’s something you are passionate about there’s nothing stopping you or anyone else from spinning up a community or instance about it and creating the niche communities everyone seems to miss.
Yeeeeah no, as I said on another comment, creating a new instance requires some kind of investment, might be monetary, learn a new skillset or dedicating time to keeping it up, it’s not something anyone can do/afford and as time goes on, it might escalate if you plan to preserve everything.
A new community… maybe, but then you’re gonna have to go instance jumping until you find one that fits you and it might be quick or you might never find one.
But some features don’t make sense or seem half-assed, like blocking instances at user level, it should also block every user from that instance, but for some weird reason it doesn’t, you don’t see the post from that instance, but posts on other instances made by those users and comments from users of that instance are still visible… So we are still forced into instance jumping until we find one that aligns with what we deem acceptable… And that could take a while.
Or the fact that Lemmy users talk a lot about privacy but the delete function doesn’t really delete the content as it can be easily restored at any moment.

Yeah, ml and hex.
Too much mexican goverment propaganda and getting swarmed by those users to defend it, is not a good time.
I know, and it’s a pain… And it will always be a pain. That’s also what discourages me from trying piefed, having to server jump until I find a decent one again.
