Pretty cool so far, replying from the app πŸ™‚

but that's not immediate and requires some work and effort (to figure out how federation works, to figure out how Lemmy works, to learn how to create an instance and to make one, to start over with an entirely new community); many on Reddit want the easiest path to get their content

which again, understandable, but still annoying to see

a lot of people back on Reddit could not give less of a shit about the issues and just want their content; they even see this as just mods powertripping again

it's kind of annoying to see that, tbh, even if I sort of get it

fuck yes!!!!! finally!

Corporations would literally chop their limbs off if it'd make them a dollar more of profit; they're like the paperclip maximizer

Oh, cool; more reason to use Piped and Invidious lmao

It is; I've seen some Reddit users complain about how the fediverse isn't immediately easy to use and is too complicated and confusing

which is understandable, but also it feels like some of those who are complaining about it (I am stressing right now that I don't mean all of them) straight up don't want to have to learn about it; they want their content immediately and they want it as simple as pushing a button

if my boss called me a cute pet name, I'd fucking quit on the spot

bosses who like to act overly familiar and pretend that we are not in a contract where I am only doing labor for them to get paid are scary tbh; the "we're one big family" act always has an implied "and I can disown you for literally any reason, especially if it's convenient for me"

Though, take care to factcheck what you get from it; all it really is is just a word predictor, and it can be pretty good at confidently telling you absolute nonsense that sounds right

doomscrolly is a bad thing, but god is it addictive even after the point that you want to vomit from how draining it is

wow, holy shit that's kind of a lot

good job on realizing that you had an issue and endeavoring to touch grass more often

good luck on your writing endeavors OP

It's insane how many people are filling in; I've been on the fediverse for about a year or so (under a different name), so it's pretty cool to see it getting popular with people
