Well summarized!
The issue with FOSS software is it attracts people who use FOSS software. I’m not saying I want the reddit of 2021 back, but the reddit of 2016 would be nicer than the reddit of 2009 we are emulating now.
Once a few of us get our friends on board and we grow a touch more, I think Lemmy has a real chance of capturing some more of the “middle” tech literacy users, giving us some of what I, and I presume you, miss about Reddit.
Correct. I meant to say FOSS stuff, but my shame will live on the internet forever.
