So, I got curious and set my feed to all. Wow, there a lot of arguments about defederation due to the Beehaw decision. Many Many people positing on "the death of Reddit" and the refugee crisis. I get some of the concerns about moderation and ideology but the amount of navelgazing is unreal. Ill just stick to local for a bit until things settle down.

So, how are you finding the big, wide fediverse outside of our pleasant little pocket? With all of the thinkpieces being posted about how Lemmy is never going to work, I wanted to see some fresh takes from the good folk at midwest.social.

I think Lemmy is working as intended, indeed. People are coming in with all these preconceived notions. I know I'm new here but they could at least try to get to speed on how this place works rather than crushing it into deformed Reddit. Back in the early EARLY days of 4chan (before all the reasonable people left) we knew to start by lurking and jump in once you understand the zeitgeist of the space.
