Lol for real?
The main thing I heard about Bluesky is that it costs like $100 mill to run your own instance or something like that, so they only have one main instance for now. They technically have federation, but for all intents and purposes, it’s just another centralized corporate service waiting to be enshittified.
I’m just tripping balls from your username formatting, perhaps you should talk to @muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee
Let’s just say I’d rather be with a man than this bear. But the bear is gone.
Lmao yes this is exactly what I’m talking about, I’ve never seen this before
I’m making the community but I’m having some technical difficulties, bear with me.
Instead of having one giant jerk censoring things like on Reddit, there are instead dozens of little petty ones wanting to defederate from other instances.
This false equivalency pains me to my core. I don’t really have anything to say about the rest of your comment, but ffs can people stop with this nonsense take? You’re implying that the difference between centralized corporate authoritarianism and decentralized grassroots democracy is negligible.
Lemmy is free and collaborative, reddit is censored and exploitative. The fact that people consistently try to equate two opposite paradigms is just mind-boggling to me.

One of the more commonly recommended reddit alternatives aside from Lemmy. Goes to show how far ahead we are of any other alternative, they all have virtually no activity.
Also note that we bottomed out around 37k in October 2024, so we have seen pretty significant growth since then, and it seems to be accelerating.
