  3. Big Tech thrives on division and on treating us as isolated individuals—so why do we still trust its platforms to hold our communities together?

  9. Bluesky – Do people still use it

    So ever since blueSky came out when Twitter went to hell (Again, again), a lot of people went to Bluesky because it was going to be the next safe space, the next Twitter because X or Twitter has become a breeding ground for negative and hate. So I guess I will ask. Is BlueSky still Alive? https://media1.tenor.com/m/2ZuUWp5LDfIAAAAC/konata-lucky-star.gif I ask this because not counting users who moved to BlueSky to get away from Elon Musk, nazis, and whatever new term people throw out that […]

  11. How on earth can anyone call lemmy.world, wizard.casa, and gotosocial.social anything but absolute rubbish? They’re a total disgrace, a complete waste of time and effort. It’s astonishing how these so-called platforms can still be allowed to exist when they’re nothing but worthless, ruined excuses for social spaces! Absolutely infuriating!

  13. I am grateful that I survived character assassinations made by lemmy.world and wizard.casa. I am still alive despite my overwhelming moments. They are not there to bring justice; they are managing risks to their survival by attacking my character and exploiting me. I know who the admin is, and who they are. They take for granted my effort in making things right. They think they can make me forget.

    Edit: Still, lemmy.world did not return my data despite my explicit request to them, and they blamed their nature, stating that they are unpaid and minimising the seriousness by returning my data after approximately 28 days. However, I did not accept this because they violated the set deadline of 3 days.

    Edit 2: Also, one user was also harassing me through DMs when I was being vulnerable. The Fediverse instance is gotosocial.social. For them, perhaps the harassment is cool, harmless, and democratic—until someone does the same to them, at which point they might label it as trolling.

  15. 🌐 Ah, the internet is dying—much like my interest in Terry's essay on the "boring" web. Apparently, nothing is sacred, and everything you once loved is now a ghost 👻 of its former self. But hey, who needs vibrant online communities when you can have #bots fighting over ad space instead? 🤖💸

  18. "After years of too-online hyper-optimized isolation, people are rediscovering that life is better when somebody nearby knows your name and your general comings and goings.

    They might not be your closest friend, but they show up anyway — sometimes awkwardly, sometimes imperfectly, sometimes just to stand there and witness."

  20. May 21 will mark 25 consecutive years that I've managed the same online community. Can I make it to 50?

    We're working on some plans to celebrate the occasion. It's interesting to get into generational online community. Not just because your community attracts people of different ages but because different people were born after it launched, and they are now participating in the community.
