  • Nothing never really happened to be honest

  • Hopefully this one shouldn't be used too often

  • Thank you!

  • If not insulting other people is tone policing, sure.

  • No questions from my side, just a big thank you to mention Mbin, Lemmy, the Fediverse in that interview. It's probably the first time for me where I watch a video talking about all of this, which is curious with how part of my daily life it is.

    I still haven't watched everything, but one of your quotes sounded resonated with me "We're only here for a short time. Why should we be a-holes to each other, and not just try to enjoy ourselves?"

    Anyway, thank you for everything, take care!

  • Thank you for chiming in, Jerry!

    Great interview, I only watched a part of it, but it was very interesting and refreshing to see your perspective on things. Thank you!

  • I just watched the section of the interview where Jerry (admin of fedia.io and infosec.exchange), and he said that

    There are a lot of people who aren't that lucky. Even charging a 1$ fee is too much. That is their lifeline, it's their way to connect to friends, and search for jobs. To me, I don't think it's appropriate to gatekeep it with a monthly fee.

  • Thanks

  • I'm currently watching the interview (quite interesting, to be honest, funny to watch an interview about Fediverse services). Could you please share the timestamp when Jerry talks about finances and costs?

  • When an instance like lemm.ee shuts down, what happens to the posts and comments?

  • That instance went down a while back, so posting a link to the community wouldn't work.

    LW users can still make posts there, but they would indeed not federate.

    I was just providing an example so that people could see what it would look like

  • Interesting. Are you in the US? Reddit was always much bigger in the USA than non-English speaking countries

  • How many people do you know IRL who are not in tech and use Reddit ?

    Personally everyone I know is on TT/IG, only the tech people are on Reddit

  • The Reddit-style text-based forums are becoming more and more of a niche market.

    People nowadays scroll videos on TikTok and IG, almost nobody is using Reddit itself
