  For us over at Hexbear that’s a feature, not a bug. Our instance exists explicitly because we don’t want to be subjected to the political moderation of others.

  How would someone buy Lemmy? Even if they bought one instance it could just be forked

  What if I told you it was more than just the business cycle

  What if I told you the entire economic structure acted like this marx-joker

  Check out the business lifecycle. “Enshittification” occurs after a business reaches maturity and has to squeeze more money out of its users or decline. Facebook, Reddit, and Twitter are all businesses, so they follow this cycle - Lemmy and Mastodon are not so they do not. That’s not to say that bad moderation can’t crater a user base, but it’s not inevitable like it is with businesses.

  No, there isn’t gigachad-hd

  Oh yeah it’s good faith when we get dismissed with accusations of being 5 cent army wumao Russian bots before any of us have even said anything

  I’m waiting for the GOTY version to drop to $20

  I had a bunch of 504 errors yesterday on Hexbear, dunno if that’s related but it could be

  Someone compared us to Nazis and you don’t think we’re being attacked?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hexbear federation megathread⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It seems pretty apparent that all of the most ardently anti-Hexbear users on here aren’t operating in good faith. Comments like yours make it pretty apparent. Just say that you don’t want Hexbear federated because it’s communist, and you’re a staunch anti-Communist.

  Don’t be a jerk, put it in spoiler tags or something

  Left unity means left unity

  That said, it is extremely hard to stay engaged on Lemmy when there is background of constant, shallow hate and derision thrown at me and my views.

  With all due respect, this is how communists feel whenever we try to present our own interpretation of events. Even presenting objectively true statements that aren’t 100% in line with a Western perspective gets a flood of “wumao 5 cent army Russian bot” comments.

  I don’t have to imagine it. My family was the victim of capitalist genocide, my family did have graves defiled. They were Irish during the famine and had the temerity to continue to be Catholic when they immigrated to America where they still had to be second-class citizens for another hundred years. By your own logic, why should I be civil toward liberal capitalists who defend the same system that tried to explicitly eradicate my family and their culture?
