If you don't want this to change, then you need to help:
thank you
Yes but how do we make it into the mainstream?
"How do we ruin what we have."
Just enjoy it.
Gatekeeping only helps keep the big tech oligarchs strong. If we want to lessen big techs influence we will need to be more welcoming here.
by making that choosing an instance is easy
i think it maybe by a automated quiz which asks you basic stuff and you get the answer
It's not like Mastodon; there aren't superior communities. Outside of hexbear or .ml, there's no meaningful difference between lemmy.social and lemmy.zip you just join one and follow what you want of all the options.
The part the general public isn't ready for is curating their own feed.
There's no AI shoving things at you so you can doomscroll. They want that.
There's also no ads paying for the servers, so we keep is small and enough of us dontate to keep it runnings.
You get a couple million twitter/reddis assholes over here burning server costs up with not donating shit; the nice, quiet, pleasant community we have goes to shit.
Don't borrow trouble.
Unityposting? Well well, maybe there is still hope.
Dont forget the instance operators who actually keep the servers running. Donations keep instances up.
oh yes your right il edit my post to include them
I'll keep repeating this: When people will stop caring about the "convenience" of mainstream social media and move to the fedi, whe can destroy the entire world economy and build something fair where creators can live of their art and content. Everything is ready, thanks to the hard work of thousands of devs, and people wont lose anything from what they enjoy from social media, they just won't be a product anymore for the techno-fascist tech giants.
Don't just say how much you love them. Donate to your instances monthly and make it easier for them to be sustainable.
- Lemmy, Piefed, PyLova, Mbin
- All the apps (and there are quite a few)
- All the alternatives UIs (Photon, Blorp, old, etc.)
Thank you everyone
ActivityPub devs as well 🥰
whoever downvoted this, is the CEO of reddit
New Godwin's law just dropped.

do you know how to fix that
And if you can, send some money their way. This place runs on donations.
If someone knows how to code, helping with their favorite projects is greatly appreciated too.

Thank you to all the developers and instance administrators! 💓
(Shame on those who stir up controversy for ideological reasons, seeking the worst in people who dedicate their time to improving the technology that enables the use of an open social web! 👿🤬)

shout out to mbin for making new ideas
shout out to friendica for making the facebook alternative

we are in the 750th upvote, thank y'all for upvoting
People should give the most money to the Lemmy devs but I think most is actually given to the largest server admins.
Lemmy should be getting a cut from all of those ISP's out there.
Bookwyrm ! Funkwhale !
Thanks, Lemmy folks! I have been, and intend to continue to be, intending to put up a server.
I'm sorry, in advance, for what is going to happen to all your hard work, as Reddit craters and all the oligarch bots start coming here to manipulate the populace / control the narrative.
As I've been saying since Usenet and Slashdot; it was good while it lasted.
