Dey see me federatin', dey hatin'~
No but for real, the only people still faithfully sticking to Reddit are corporate shills and/or tech illiterate people. I see them staying there as a net positive if you ask me.
Yeah, that type of person is a large part of the reason reddit turned to shit. The relative difficulty of accessing this platform has been a great filter for casuals and clout chasers.
I agree, but there was clout in piracy? Why wasn't I told about this
Bruh you never whipped out the 10 TB library? Bitches love thicc Plex servers
Nothing they love more than back ups of back ups.
You don’t even need to be tech literate to join Lemmy.
I know, but the amount of people I've seen on Reddit the past month going like "hurr durr how do I Lemmy??? I dun understand!!!" was staggering.
You are right, it is 100% about technological illiteracy. Their pea brains cannot understand the concept of social media that isn't exactly the same as everything else they've used.
If anything it’s willful ignorance I suppose. Reddit was unlike any previous social media site the majority had used, so I don’t really get how “it’s too different” could be a legit argument.
Reddit was still one company, one website, one account, etc. Federation confuses these people immensely.
I mean it pretty much works the same way as Usenet. Independent providers have servers which federate content with each other.
Not that hard of a concept.
and they are the sort who are afraid of change. They want everything to be automatic and low effort. that's why reddit has become a low-effort shitpost imageboard.
Adults turn into small children the minute they get online. They are completely lost and vulnerable.
