Comment on What are your complaints about Lemmy?
j4k3@lemmy.ml 8 months agoThe whining of people that do not post content themselves is wonderful. The defederation nonsense is irritating. The McCarthyism is so unbelievably stupid bullshit by people that have never so much as read what it is all about. Like let’s start with the etymology, common, communal - shared by the community; public. ist - one who has a certain ideology or set of beliefs. There must be a shit ton of billionaires around here, because Marx just talked about the rights of the common people against the industrialists. It’s super outdated ancient but the issues are still the same. Louis Rossman, the Fediverse, Linux, Graphene, all these things are in the same vain. Anyone that is against ownership of their car, home, devices, and media can go back to their reddit/Facebook overlords.
It was MASSIVELY disappointing to see .world go down this path with sublinks which appears to have started based on this logic.

Why would asking for input on thinking about something be so disappointing

It was things said in the comments of that post and reading between the lines. I think the change is inevitable and already decided. The main active admin of .world is working on sublinks. That is enough for me to view time spent on building community on .world as a waste. If it was the other way around and they were coding in Rust and the Lemmy base was in js or whatever, maybe I’d think differently, but everything I’ve seen is a massive red flag saying sinking ship, or at least I’m on the wrong ship and regret the time spent there now. A lot of people left already. I have my other accounts, but had never made a .ml until recently in an attempt to start making sure communities were shared across larger instances, but I guess it was well timed to make the shift.
