    Nobody in my life gives a fuck.

    Even my mom just shrugged and moved on to the next thing. The rest either didn’t use it in the first place, or have been swayed to the dark side by me making fun of corporate social media. Or, you know, because they got tired of the bullshit.

      Interesting, is she trying RedNote?

        Yup. From what she says, it’s essentially the same vibe, though not as many “good” videos

              We all found Lemmy after Reddit went to crap, so I’m not sure we’re that much better

                I may be unique but I got into Lemmy not because it was Reddit but because I tried mastadon

                At least this isn’t just a constant stream of bandwidth-wasting ads

                Yeah, so what? Why did you feel the need for whataboutism now?

    Mild annoyance. People are also annoyed at the asskissing of Trump in the shutdown message, given that he wanted it shut down last time he was president. IMO people will just move on to whatever else.

    I don’t really understand why the Supreme Court ruled that this is legal in the first place.

      Because they don’t answer “political questions”, they check for contradictions against the constitution, and they don’t (in their opinion) think there’s any conflicts with the constitution.

      Congress could pass a law banning Pizza, and it would be constitutional, however stupid it is.

        Yeah, IMO it’s a constitutional question. I’m coming at it from the EFF’s side:

        We are deeply disappointed that the Court failed to require the strict First Amendment scrutiny required in a case like this, which would’ve led to the inescapable conclusion that the government’s desire to prevent potential future harm had to be rejected as infringing millions of Americans’ constitutionally protected free speech.

    Honestly, I’m not affected by this blatant attempt to silence people and cut off a means of disseminating news…It sucks, but I know that people will find an alternative platform to use. It won’t be a Meta platform like all the politicians who invested in Meta stocks, would hope it to be. 🤣

    Angry very angry. Frustrated and depressed.

    So pretty normal around here. Just more of it now.

    Lot of people lost there jobs and income because of it.
