First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

I think you are right. Investors just want more money than they have and it is ruining the platform. I guess that is why I love these federated platforms. It is not really easy for them to be taken over.

They can, however, be misrepresented by media, to the general public, using sometimes fabricated other times exaggerated events. And that agenda can be pushed, more than ever from July onward, by lobbying. Not that I care, because I don't give a **** about what other people think of the place where I spend my time, but a lot of people do. Even reddit had a time like that "oh, isn't that the network where the CP / jailbait scandal broke?". I'm sure Lemmy will have some of these growing pains.
