We’ve got a populated Lemmy now.

User generated links are no longer possible in a world where this law is being enforced. websites like Lemmy, mastodon, LinkedIn and Facebook will not be available.

I don’t see how this could be considered a good idea…

they are a symptom of a broken society,

This: Don’t hate the players. Hate the game.

Honestly: for my social media consumption Reddit works pretty well. I always used to webinterface so for nothing really changed.

I am here because I felt like changing things up more than anything. Well: the fediverse is a super interesting idea and looking at something fresh is always fun.

Still; it seems pretty likely that this place will be a good deal smaller than Reddit for the foreseeable future and that’s both a strength and a weakness.

The main strength of Reddit is it’s nichier subs. There is one for just about anything. You need a massive volume of users to do such a thing and I don’t think Lemmy will reach that size anytime soon.

I expect Lemmy to be a place where people value Openness and Freedom. Generally there are less people that care about Freedom AND Pu’er tea than there are people who care about just Pu’er tea.

I wonder what will happen to Lemmy in a couple of years🤔
