    Trying to make a doc for migrants. Just the overview. Got the cold shoulder from one of the small web guys equating Lemmy to heroine. Essentially ‘either do it like me or you are wrong’

    Same as it ever was online.

    As for me? Missing a few communities. Kinda head scratching at things over all, but it could be worse.

    Both want to make a few instances and have no energy to babysit them.

        From ‘Guy’ (Even if i think the opinion is shit. No point in calling him out even if he’s unlikely to be here.)

        I think these followers and likes counters’ places unleash the wrong attitude. People write stuff to collect these by pleasing the potential reader instead of writing just facts. Fights over points and factually wrong answers that gained a lot of up-votes drove me away from reddit and SE. Some even write BS and get terribly upset if you point them to a man page that contradicts their statements.

        Communication media should fit the job. Chats be volatile and fast while mail, mailing lists and news are allowing detailed discussions in long articles.

        Sending people from twitXter or FB to Mastodon does not help them evolve. It just gives addicts a supposedly more free variant of their drug instead of getting them away from it.

        Needless to say I disagree with his assertion, if for no other reason than not everyone wants to flee back to the 90’s in terms of how to social/internet
