I know, i understand that BlueSky isn’t “true federation”, but i still agree with some of what they’re doing. As long as they’re getting people off Twitter and off places like reddit, regardless of if they have bad intentions for BlueSky eventually, they’re doing some good.

Youtubes a tough one. You kind of need lots of capital to keep the servers running if it becomes too popular

I was finally looking to take the plunge away from corporate social medias. I was already using BlueSky as my Twitter/X replacement, and one thing stuck with me that they were doing: Federation. That seemed cool, and look! There is a Reddit replacement that does this “federation” thing. Lemm.ee seemed to line up with my general principles (Im a leftist so i don’t want any lefty communities or instances defeded) and i like talking with the community at large, so here i am :D

I’ve also recommended it to all my friends who enjoy BlueSky and are sick of reddit kowtowing to billionaires interests. Sorry/you’re welcome for some of the user rush the last couple of days haha
