"Dead language"
Dude it doesn't count if you're literally killing the language on purpose
Rather than jump to "trauma" here (and believe me, I say this as a person with PTSD), could you elaborate on what you mean by "fear"?
I'm so used to hearing him called "Zucc" that it took me a second to figure out who "Mark" was
Leaving reddit made me literally touch grass. Guys I went to the park today!
Razer 2 and I don't have it
They like having no competition, by being friendly at first, then crushing us when we let them access our userbase. Defederate, with no second thoughts. If the Meta users want to experience the fediverse, nothing is stopping them from making a Lemmy account on any instance.
The content is facebook-oriented content. Idk if it would even really be the kind of audience that most of the fediverse would be able to sustain.
As it is, reddit was a concern for many people. Facebook? Not a chance.
Besides, large scale defederation discourages Meta from trying to weasel their way into everything like that. Don't encourage them. They want you excited, but overlooking the massive issues.
Adjusting slowly. I feel about as isolated with a sense of pseudo-connection that dies off the moment I stop typing my reply here as I did on reddit, if anything less content here with a less aggressive algorithm keeps me from getting into scrolling loops and lets me actually do shit with my day.

The giant figure holds a massive sword that is planted in the ground with both hands, while the comparitively tiny 'Ashen One' holds a regular sized sword in his right hand and adopts a fighting stance. Text placed over the stomach of the giant character, and over the smaller protagonist figure, reads as follows]
