Oh right. When I first heard about Lemmy, I tried to join .ml because it was the first instance I was made aware of. I think it was being rate limited at the time due to that whole reddit exodus thing, and I wasn’t able to get through, but. .world let me sign up so here I am.
I’d like to think that members of a given instance have their own opinions. It’s sad to hear about how territorial lemmy is.
I’m not familiar with the first subreddit, what was that about?
Appreciate the explanation. I’ve seen some remarks about the instance in passing, I’ve just never paid close enough attention to how communities have interacted with each other in the past.
What’s the story with this place?
That’s on me. I come here for tech and cute stuff and it’s easy for me to miss announcements pinned at the top 😓
Sorry I’m not sure if it was reverted; I was completely unaware of it even being proposed.
fucking hell the amount of effort that would take on popular communities is insane. Was totally unaware of this policy change.
Iirc, Acton donated to signal, they didn’t go on to make it as an alternative. Signal existed long before he left, and even longer ago as open whisper systems’ TextSexure, which was a means of SMS / MMS encryption.
OWS was founded by moxie back in 2013
Ah right. Appreciate the info!
