    Also Reddit accelerating its decline, just to start… Basically all my preferred niches have turned into fragmented Discord black holes.

    I know we’re on a fediverse lifeboat here, but there are a lot of empty seats.

      I think discord is the worst platform. It has the illusion of being free, but it’s made by a for-profit business that has for-profit motives. The ads have only intensified since I started using it and like any product following the MBA line of thought, they need to gain critical mass before tightening down the screws of monetization.

        I just despise the format and the intense engagement/attention optimization over just finding what you want. It buries information so you have to spend time in it.
