Lol

I deleted my facebook like 8 years ago. I don’t understand why people still use social media like that. It makes no sense to me.

Hot take - I don’t blame them. The who’s federated with who and who can see what, and how it works is confusing as absolute fuck and extremely poorly explained.

Yes but then I realized that unfortunately it will never take off and suffers from most of the issues that centralized sites suffer from. So yea, rip.

If smaller instances aren’t stable or practical then this is a failed experiment. End of story.

Well then idk what to say. Lemmy and the fediverse is a failed experiment. I mean what’s the point if people just congregate into one huge instance? Kinda defeats the purpose, no?

Please join a small instance. Lemmy doesn’t work if people don’t spread out. Just choose some small instance that seems chill. You can search and sub to any community. It really makes no difference.

It is but it’s not the same. There’s something fundamentally different about social media that links your real identity to your comments. Also here I can easily just not sub to political communities. On other social media it’s very hard to get rid of.

Grandparents watched their kids grow up for thousands of years before social media. I think there are clearly other ways…jesus people.

Just don’t use Social Media? Idk why people keep using this dogshit as if they expect it to change. JUST STOP FUCKING USING IT. You’ll be thanking me later for the boost in mental health.

You should be closing your Facebook regardless of your desire to use an alternative…

No thanks.
