Comment on alien.top is a new level of Reddit crossposting spam
rglullis@communick.news 11 months agoI want the programming communities to be on programming.dev. I want the adult communities to be on lemmynsfw. I want the nix community to be on nix-community. I want the Brazilian communities to be on lemmy.eco.br, like the italians on feddit.it or the Germans on feddit.de…
These communities already have their place, so there is no need to recreate them. But what about the communities that don’t?
You are trying to paint my work in the worst possible light, as if I am trying to hijack the networks. Not only that is not true, it is against everything I stand for. And the really funny thing is that I already have written out quite a bit about how my “evil plan” is to get rid of ad-funded internet and that are alternative business models that can be more ethical without trying to capitalize on eyeballs.
A bit of cynicism can be good, just make sure it doesn’t become paranoia.

And what you still seem to not understand:
Those communities don’t want to be on those domains. So all you are doing is trying to force their hand because you think your desires override their autonomy.
I don’t have to “paint (your) work in the worst possible light” because… you are doing that yourself.

Can you honestly say that the communities on reddit are on reddit due to their choice and absolute free will?

I would say that I would rather they make their own decisions rather than someone decide they know better and force their hands.

I too was a libertarian once. Then I grew up.

There are a lot of subreddits that have set up their own Lemmy communities. There’s not much hindering them.

And there are lots that didn’t, and these are the ones that I am creating instances/communities for.
