Reddit protests so I migrated to try kbin, lemmy, mastodon. Learned about fediverse, activitypub - than down rabbit hole to open source communities, then open source software…moved to linux and it’s a whole new world!

Will be interested to learn about the new generation of Cuban immigrations vs those of the past - most already in the US grew up with memories pre Castro, young ones now might be quite removed?
Amazing…thank you for sharing!
FB was only for college kids, now it’s for your grandparents.
Absolutely tick those boxes. And it makes perfect sense.
Ahh the future satisfaction I’ve given myself to me by being able to say 10 years from now “there were no posts! …no one knew what an instance was…” and hopefully it was still be good and that day im acting holier than thou
I think there are multiple illusions into using one community. I don’t think people do. The average user love instagram when it was for sharing photos, facebook before it was for grandparents, vine (now tik tok) when it was for funny clips, youtube for silly content, reddit for thread format speaking, snapchat for stupid private chats. If we are talking about centralized communication I’m not so sure that is the case either. The reason all of those platforms I just mentioned got ruined for the most part is being of the growth of influencing and monetization. Once capitalism came in it completely changed the original intent of why the user liked those platforms, I doubt most of them even remember why they liked it when they joined it changed so fast. What people want, without actually realizing it, are the same services without the garbage product they’ve excepted and its turned into.
Depends on the subreddit and how the mods reacted.
For mainstream users nothing changed. There’s two subreddits I stay active on. But I’m trying to make a point to make keep creating content on activity protocol.
