Fuck lemmy.

Reddit feels like a downgrade compared to hexbear, this place beats the old sub by a mile imo
Actually nobody has ever agreed on the fundamental purpose of Hexbear, and the goal of pipelining libs/dunking is directly in tension with having a cozy hangout space that is welcoming to marginalized comrades
I'm not saying that it should be one or the other, just that the two conflict
Pipelines but what I really mean or barrels
The problem isn't the methods, intent or the execution of federating, it's the quality of the people we're engaging with
The fundamental problem is that the vast majority of people on Lemmy are Ledditors with all the Reddit bullshit that comes with it. They're literally just people addicted to the point of using third-party apps, malding that spez took away their third-party apps, and pathetic enough to continue using a shitty Reddit clone to get their updoots fix instead of going to Instagram or something like a normal person.
I use DM's often for mutual aid stuff but yeah letting users turn them off would be a good start.
