  • Remember that if you can see something that obvious, imagine all the quiet changes people are making that aren't being immediately found. Not only the deliberate horseshit from musk and his facsy tots, but other attempts to distort data from traditional bad actors like China and Russia

  • Sure, the app that nailed this might separate itself as the popular option for zeitgeist to grab onto, but then it distributes users to many servers (as the app itself is an aggregator that's agnostic to server. But yes, rush of that single app becoming "Lemmy" in many people's minds.

    But you likely need to treat migration and understanding nuance of the tech as two different user journeys. Rather than solving problem though, likely better to stop and ask why we even want more users (if we even do?).

  • Next up is Tim apple announcing his conversion therapy was successful and that he will now be marrying a blonde fox news anchor on the white house lawn. He'll then run for Lindsey Graham's senate seat and carry on the tradition of being the most closeted man in the Senate... And the world.

    When Lindsey Graham was asked who his first lady would be should he ever win the presidency, he replied... "My sister".

  • I have a post early on Lemmy, around the migration, about how it felt like any morality and responsibility to objective fact over there left with our initially migrating group. The change is subtle, but it's crazy how far you have to scroll into the comments now to find the buried correct answer that refutes the misinformation in the title or linked article.

    Also, the "which movie is this for you?" Type posts have just saturated over there. As well as shit, obscure linked sources (e g. "Indiatrump.biz" "realzgovtruth.info" kind of shit), as sources of front page upvoted posts, seem so much more prevalent over there now.

  • Could have auto versus manual server choice. Can always maintain option for granular selection for those who want, but "normies" could walk into a quiz when migrating?

    • Top three things you used Reddit for? (List of maybe 10+ things, servers can maintain their feature list to empower this)
    • Do you like A) talking to everybody about days topics B) talking to a smaller group of like minded people
    • Do you like A) a MORE moderated space B) a LESS moderated space, realizing you may see more spam and controversy

    And then calculates a server that meets needs, if multiple, then random number generator to assign a server from the filtered options. On user side, all they see is a quiz followed by a typical registration screen. This would help with distribution of users across niche servers, but feel lighter for user. They also would assume a more curated experience, regardless of where they end up. Servers could have to opt in to be fed users from search of they were afraid of impact on cost to maintain server.

    The above likely aren't the right questions, but this framework could be effective

  • PayPal owns brands like Venmo, Honey and is heavily integrated into eBay - if you're looking to stop giving your money to bad companies, take a second to search their subsidiary brands as well.

  • Large corporate farmers maybe (you've provided no support to your claim). In my experience though (a decade in fine dining, with direct relationships to many market farmers) there are more small farmers without their heads up their asses. They understand how they are being fucked with water rights, climate change and no right to repair. While nobody is doing enough on these things currently, they recognize that trump is gasoline on the fire that disrupts their lives.

  • If anything, Venmo is a competitor of PayPal.

    PayPal.. owns Venmo?

    Again, you are weird to spend energy defending semantics around this corporation.. are you okay, bud? Temporarily embarrassed millionaire?

  • A good way to miss out on good people. Diversity is strength.

    You already know about sci fi, get people around you that can appreciate that, but have their own POV to offer. Also, feels a bit like you're forcing people to be your friend - have those mirror friends outside work. Otherwise, you're kind of saying you can't make those friendships in real life

  • PayPal was acquired by Ebay for 1.5 billion in stock. Group that benefitted from that transactionmost already included musk, thiel, etc. They are intrinsically tired together forever. You also see PayPal as an option for all transactions in eBay, the very recent addition of alternative options, after decades of socializing people on PayPal as the default option doesn't change much.

  • You operate under the false premise that people think this is about binary choice, it's not. The shades of gray matter here. Again, as I stated, perfection isn't the goal, it is how much of an effort you make to consciously navigate the bullshit we are forced to live within, while also hopefully working to fix the larger broken systems somehow in your lifetime. Progress, not perfection.

    You very baldly read as extremely selfish and again, you performatively forgive yourself in public forums so you don't have to try. You sound like a professional victim. Start listening to those rogue thoughts at night when you're staring at the ceiling, the ones that tell you you might be completely full of shit, they are on to something...
