kase

Hey, I use this app! It’s awesome. They also included lots of information about the air quality measurements, which I appreciated. For example:

Exactly, EEE is a big part of what convinced me. It’s not about a circle jerk or excluding anyone, and I welcome threads users to make accounts and create instances here.

I agree that we should defederate. I like it here, but I’ll definitely change instances if Lemmy.world decides to federate with threads (or any similar platform) and isn’t very cautious about it. No hurt feelings of course, if I’m not part of the majority here, but from the responses I’ve seen so far it seems like most people here agree.

I do respect one thing, and it’s that everyone I’ve encountered in this discussion is interested in keeping the fediverse alive and well. ╰⁠( ^⁠‿)⁠╯

Yo same!

Cows are underrated! Got any cool cow facts?

(I also emerged as a result of the reddit drama.)

Y'know, good point. I haven't actually been on reddit since the blackout, so I probably shouldn't be confidently basing any theories on just what I've heard about now-reddit from other people, lol. Thanks for the correction.

I guess my idea of how much reddit "fell" and how much Lemmy/Mastodon grew is a bit inflated, probably because I spend all my internet time here now.

Oh yeah I don't disagree. The wording was unclear, but I meant that more in the future/hypothetical tense. It just seems like that's what all the big social media sites have been doing lately, so I was assuming that yt's quality will take a nosedive sooner or later, but I guess it's unfair (and hopefully wrong) to assume that. Thx for the correction

Maybe it's unlikely for this to happen, but I wonder if it'd be possible for yt to go down like reddit did. Yt makes a series of bad decisions, so a lot of people move from there to similar platforms. The other services don't have much content right now, but from what I here, neither did Lemmy before the "exodus."

I get that reddit and youtube are very different types of platforms and that the whole reddit thing happened because of pretty specific circumstances, but idk, maybe something vaguely similar could happen.
