Just say they. Not he/she. They. End of argument.

Yes. The argument that we need to grow is a capitalistic one imo. This isn’t a capitalistic platform afaik. Small communities are naturally better, I think.

Let’s wait and see.

HEAR HERE! (I DON’T KNOW WHICH ONE TO USE WHEN SHOUTING THIS EXPRESSION IN SUPPORT OF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING)

This is great. I seem to be less into social media since Twitter died and Reddit became whatever the heck it is now. I do occasionally go back there but it feels weird. I feel disconnected from it. I can see people still using it, but there’s a pall over everything, a frost. Lemmy on the other hand may not be as active, but its smaller community feels more personal.

World News at Lemmy.world and WorldNews@Lemmy.ml are the two I consume the most of.

I can’t speak for losses, but I can say I visit almost every day. I get my news from here and feel informed.

Thats. Pretty dang awesome gj!

Don’t know don’t care. There’s a community here now and it’s healthy.

There’s some of that, but I prefer it for something like micro blogging. I want to see different things, points of view. By contrast, I’ll go to a news site for specific info. I love Mastodon because there’s a unvarnished stream of information that isn’t curated by algorithms. :D

Follow / pin active hashtags. I have 4, #news #nintendo #xbox and #playstation. I’m a simple man

Excellent use case.

I’m not going back to Reddit, that’s for sure. Unless…they come up with an i486 theme…🤔

ABANDON ALL HOPELESSNESS YE WHO ENTER HERE

To the next numerically observable milestone! 🚀

Ah. IRC, the Slack before Slack.

I am loving Lemmy, in part because I feel like people are having more personal and interesting conversations.

If I wanted to use Facebook and subject myself to the community that includes, I’d use that. I prefer a less hostile/more thoughtful place, which Lemmy.world is to me. If Threads becomes accessible to Lemmy.world and brings that community within this sphere, I will very likely move on.

Yes. Reddit was probably the same for years.

Yeap. It doesn’t to go mainstream; it’s already successful.

Word. It makes some false assumptions imo. Facebook as a community has a known toxicity / mis/disinformation problem. Keep that mess over there points to Over There
