Lemmy instances with those same challenges would probably just fold and close up.
Can confirm. I set up a pixelfed instance for my city with the goal of moving people from Insta to this version. After about three months, user accounts went from 1-10 signups a week to a hundred a week.
No way did that many business owners sign up. And yep, all spam.
After a while, my random weekend project in Spring became a full time job. I closed it last month.

They’re still cool! They have lots of cool things they’ve released over the past few years! Like… Um…

What is JioPC? JioPC represents a paradigm shift in personal computing, offering India’s first AI-ready cloud computer solution. Rather than relying on traditional hardware, JioPC transforms any TV or display into a powerful computing workstation through cloud-based processing power.
This is a article or a marketing piece?
What self-respecting tech reviewer writes the phrase “paradigm shift” to explain a random laptop? Or maybe it’s AI garbage.

I honestly don’t understand what op is talking about.
Leaks happen all the time, even in billion dollar companies.
- Comment on Women Dating Safety App 'Tea' Breached, Users' IDs Posted to 4chan 2 weeks ago:
My friend came over and told me a story about this crazy date she was on. The guy love bombs her, sets her up with a massage, then in the morning, goes out and eats McDonalds alone and ghosts her. Then repeats every few weeks with love bombs.
I shared that with my discord group and someone said they know that guy too.
Im assuming that’s what Tea is for.

- Comment on Dear Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, please prove that an AI didn’t write your insulting, vacuous blog about why you're laying off thousands during a time of huge profits 2 weeks ago:
The past few layoffs at Rock Paper Shotgun made me concerned that they were being neutered by their corporate overlords.
But the past few months, this and the stinging review about eriksholm gives me hope.

My wife’s sister dated a guy in his 30s when she was 19.
So much trauma for a decade.
- Comment on They even got their own island 3 weeks ago:
Bro it was such a shit show when I was growing up.
Just military bros spending their entire military paycheck on a mustang and picking up high school girls.
Still remember my friend crying/begging for help because military bro didn’t get sex and wanted to beat her up. And this dirtbag was going to get shipped with a rifle to some brown country.

- Comment on Samsung phones can survive twice as many charges as Pixel and iPhone, according to EU data 5 weeks ago:
Your pixel 5 didn’t just mysteriously die? There was a wave of them dying. Mine was part of the crossfire.
I loved the pixel 5 too, for like 3 years then mysteriously croaked.
Currently on the pixel 6 which is pretty good.
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 1 month ago:
It’s reached a point where the government is pushing for websites to card you before you can enter.
Women apps were giving data so the government can arrest women for abortion-like behavior.
We’re already at the point where privacy/anonymity is the only way to visit the internet.
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 1 month ago:
That’s how classic Reddit was for me.
Mods who are extremely rigid to the rules had to exist when the spammers went crazy. But with smaller communities, modding should be based on vibes. You get better conversations that way.

Honestly that sounds great. I’m kind of annoyed how often NordVPN keeps emailing me and trying to upsell me on the daily.
The service is fine overall. But the nonstop promotion, along with it being a US company that can easily just give all their info to the US government, makes me wanting to switch pronto.

Chromebooks went from “What is that?” To literally everywhere in schools.
Android phones are everywhere.
Google and the Chrome browser really ate into Microsoft’s dominance.

My business partner sometimes says some shit that while true, really stabs me in the heart.
His most recent one, “Ugh, there’s too many parents with sickly kids here. Let’s go to the VIP room.” (At the airport)
Like, I’m one of those sickly kids.
