Overall, this definitely feels like a promising alternative with some growing pains. The bigger communities are decently active but the decentralized nature of Lemmy carries the risk of some communities becoming too fragmented where communities are duplicated in different instances.

I can’t believe this is a real story.

Why can’t they be like normal billionaires and just go outside and play with their submersibles?
