    I hope this becomes the main platform. X is a cesspool and I could care less about seeing others talking crap lol. I keep seeing it on there and it’s annoying having to scroll through it all.

      +1. Twitter is a horrible format for any sort of in-depth discussion, or even catching up on news. Lemmy isn’t ideal, but tolerable, and should serve PP interests just fine.

      At the very least this is a great place to have a durable backup for DD. It’s hard following Twitter/X bc everything is real time and there’s so much noise.

      Threaded, upvote-ordered conversations are super helpful.

      This is a good place to have the DD in a forum as twitter is not that great for it. A way to bring content over from twitter is to cross post over here. Nice thing is the DRSyourGME team also has a server here so we are truly becoming decentralized. Here is the DRSyourGME community Lemmy: https://lemmy.whynotdrs.org/

    Are we moving to this? Feels like a good alternative to Reddit.

    Tried creating an X account yesterday, but it keeps erroring at the final step. It’s exhausting after all those captcha’s, so I’ll try again another time.

      it’s a weird one but behind all of the smoke and mirrors, it’s a group of investors who are closely following the Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY) bankruptcy.

      We’ve been watching as hedge funds have conjured up billions of shares (many more than actually exist) and sold them all to drive the price down. This (illegal) practice is called naked shorting, and it’s how a popular household name has been forced into bankruptcy.

      Still, bankruptcy is a process and the story’s not over yet.

      Basically a group of people who invest in Ryan Cohen ($GME and $BBBYQ and Teddy) and Carl Icahn ($IEP). Look for theppshow on Youtube.

    Decentralized or user owned and run platforms will prevent what happened on Reddit from happening again. So important to embrace these options!
