  Doing something you know will result in a negative(in our case here, losing a huge level of activity, participation, stability, etc).

  The term soaring is pretty relative in this case. It’s still completely unknown to the majority of the world. It’s just like Lemmy, where the very few rigid types that absolutely couldn’t stand for one particular thing that happened to their social network will do anything, including cutting their nose off to spite their face rather than continue to use it. That’s why we’re all here and it’s why nobody else but us are coming.

  I probably wouldn’t have been standing at all, seeing as how I have no clue what “gamergate” is.

  “They’re super-terrible to work for and I’ve just coincidentally chose this period of the company’s social implosion to quit and speak up. This is definitely not a bandwagon move. #metooLMG”

  Those look super nifty. It makes me wish I had a printer.

  I’ve hopped to another server due to the abysmal uptime of late. I’ll continue checking in though. I know they’re working on adding sysops so I’m sure things will improve.

  People fork what’s what they’re using and what’s popular. Chromium has the vast majority of the market share so it’s most likely to get modified and reused.

  It has taken over most social media apps

  A lot of the people using the “fediverse” are here because of the things that most social media shovels at it’s users. I don’t think I would use that as an example of why it should be available to us.

  Good. Hopefully, those that make Reddit the experience it is stays there.
