Also, why tf does it even need to be new?

That’s come outta nowhere.

Either CEOs want something more focus grouped, or nepo babies behind the scenes need to add their own “flair” to it.

Why tf people always acting like this is an issue?

You’ve just washed it, are you unable to wash your arse properly??

Are you pushing the towel that far up???

The prime minister has accepted almost 40 sets of free tickets during his time as Labour leader, mostly to football matches but also £4,000 of hospitality at a Taylor Swift concert and £698 of Coldplay tickets in Manchester.

I feel utterly misled and betrayed, I never would’ve voted for a Swiftie 🤮

People don’t want help, they want you to fix it.

They’re then not grateful you fixed it, they’re annoyed with you because it broke in the first place.

It’s a great job 👍

I was gonna say that’s good to know, then realised I’ll probably never actually come into contact with a gun

Downvoting a post ain’t brigading 😂

Is there not an option in Lemmy to make a community private, or exclude it from /all?

That sounds like what you need if you can’t handle general users disagreeing with you.

 

I just don't get how Lemmy is going to act as a proper replacement for Reddit.

I understand the basic concept of Lemmy and the Fediverse, and people are touting the concept of it being federated and not centrally controlled, but it is an absolute mess and nobody seems to have an idea about what to do with it.

How are communities going to grow if there isn't at least some form of central management. Other than there being an underlying framework that connects the servers, they're all just doing what they want.

Outside of the underlying framework, there's no 'guidelines' or consistency. The servers have random names, and the main Lemmy.ml is telling people to register elsewhere.

How is this going to bring in a wider audience if people are being directed to lemmy.fmhy.ml, sopuli.xyz, or sh.itjust.works?

What is the purpose of the Fediverse when forums for niche interests already exist on the internet?

Does it make sense to have something like a 'sports' server that has communities for soccer, NFL, basketball, MMA? But then how do you get a consistent naming scheme that lets people know it's part of the fediverse?

Maybe Lemmy could work as a replacement, but it seems like it needs a 'flagship' server with a group of people maintaining it to set an example. Then other servers that cover more specific areas, such as sports, can be set up and potentially work closely with that flagship group.

If this doesn't happen, then I can't see how this doesn't just fizzle out.

P.S. I've also compared two different Lemmy servers and looked at the same post in a community, and there are different numbers of comments on each where they haven't synced up...

I also wanted to post this to the main Lemmy community, but as I had to register via a different server, I'm not able to access that community from the server I'm using for some reason...
