Twitter also needs people

Never meant to defend oracle. I dislike them even more than IBM.

For me it’s not about changing other peoples minds, it’s more about creating a viable alternative to reddit for the right people.

Reddit should deal with hateful people and those who are unwilling to challenge themselves to look over the edge.

Already was using it in TestFlight, but needed to download it to rate it in the App Store.

Mass exodus maybe in terms of power users. The average Reddit user used the official client before the api restrictions. My guess is that many people who posted good stuff ditched Reddit.

If an instance is not willing to work on these issues, other instances can opt to defederate the offending instance.

Here is the source blog post from oracle: https://www.oracle.com/news/announcement/blog/keep-linux-open-and-free-2023-07-10/

RedHat really fucked up with this move. I know RedHat employees and everyone from RedHat I met so far was proud they work there and how much open source meant to the company. I guess there will be more and more redhatters looking for new opportunities in the coming months.

Tips shouldn’t be the main source of income. It should be a bonus for good work. Tipping culture in the us is getting crazy compared to Europe. The base salary should be enough to be able to live on.

Yeah my browsing time has gone down compared to Reddit. But Lemmy has far less mindless content, if I’m on here I’m more engaged and actively read articles linked or write comments.
