It is funny to see that first Mastodon and now Lemmy are rising, due to basically major social media screwing up.

I remember I was among those that migrated to Mastodon after Elon Musk acquired Twitter and the situation right now with Reddit and Lemmy looks very similar.

One thing I noticed is also a lot of rage (for lack of a better world) and meta-conversations. In this case, it’s about Reddit, the subs going private etc.

Don’t you find all this funny? I find it also interesting, because people understand when something is wrong and vote with their feet.

    It largely has to do with their inability to sort. Also, as pointed out to me a couple times, the direct messages on there can be read by the server owner. So I don’t want to use it for personal communication. And therefore it’s kind of dead to me. If they fix that though, I’d be happy.
