What do you think about Lemmy, so far? - eviltoast

I happen to like it very much.

    I think it’s inevitable that lemmy attracts these kinda people. At least for me, I got out of Reddit not just because of the API decisions, but because I just don’t like the idea of having 0 control over my services. The API thing was just a wakeup call.

    I’d say that I’m “part of the problem” in terms of shilling for FOSS software, but I was the same back on Reddit. So it’s gonna be my type of people that come in here.

    Either that or tankies

      I think many people don’t understand this is the entire point of being on Lemmy. They just want Reddit without ads, but without FOSS we would sooner or later become Reddit. So of course we are going to care about FOSS.

      It’s the same with people who use Linux but say they don’t care about FOSS. Linux is Linux because it’s FOSS. Otherwise it would just be Chrome OS or Android.
