Overall, I really like Lemmy, and the communities therein. There do seem to be some more radical takes on this platform than I’m used to. I haven’t heard of anyone being swatted or anything like that on here (or even actively doxxed), but there do seem to be more radical takes that what I’m used to on other platforms. I generally don’t engage with those groups. I’m just here for the memes, and to share my knowledge on topics I like. I don’t want to have to worry much about some bored, idealistic shitlord taking offense and going out of their way to nuke me.
As a new motorhead, how carefully do I need to tread, compared to other platforms? I ask, because it seems like posts on here are cast to a much broader network.
It’s simple. I’m just against capitalistic corporations taking over our information again. And of course Ads = annoyance/spyware and for-profit = a likely enshittification in the near future.
I agree with you :) But, and I mean this in the kindest way to OP, maybe lemmy doesn’t need the casual late joiners of reddit who don’t care about those things?
Yeah, I agree that nearly everybody doesn’t care about the backend but I still believe everybody can learn from the shitty decisions that for-profits make. It’s horrible.
