So, I got curious and set my feed to all. Wow, there a lot of arguments about defederation due to the Beehaw decision. Many Many people positing on “the death of Reddit” and the refugee crisis. I get some of the concerns about moderation and ideology but the amount of navelgazing is unreal. Ill just stick to local for a bit until things settle down.
So, how are you finding the big, wide fediverse outside of our pleasant little pocket? With all of the thinkpieces being posted about how Lemmy is never going to work, I wanted to see some fresh takes from the good folk at midwest.social.
my home instance is hosted by sdf.org, a 30+ year-old non-profit org that is sustained entirely by voluntary donation (as in membership is free). You should look them up.
I had a shell account there many years ago didn’t know they had a Lemmy instance thanks for reminding me about them.
