Password managers are as important as adblockers in this day and age imo

The beehaw and world defederation (which I assume you are referencing) is temporary because beehaw believes the increased traffic cannot be moderated without proper mod tools.

And while you’re right about mainstream things like gaming or technology won’t have a single main community, I feel more niche communities will be able to setup their main communities. Obviouly that’s just my opinion, but there are some signs of that happening already. (c/piracy for example)

1. As time goes one community will emerge as the main one while other would dry up and naturally become obsolete (until people get angry with the mods of main one and start looking for alternative community, similar to how there are r/truegaming, r/true(x) etc for popular subreddits.)

2. There are many open PRs on lemmy github on how to aggregate similar communities. For example there is a suggestion of making an auto multireddit like thing, m/gaming for example, that would merge posts from every c/gaming community (not sure how this would work with defederation and stuff). With enough demand, something like that can be added to lemmy by an experienced dev.

Criticizing and mentioning flaws of a system doesn’t automatically make a person against the system.

Accepting the current flaws and then working on their solutions is the way to make Lemmy better for everyone.

With Twitter, situation is different since most celebs are still on it and people generally use it just to see what the popular people are saying. Once (and if) these celebrities join Mastodon, Twitter would start to finall fall.

That’s great to hear

Wow even if admins take over that subreddit, such a big subreddit will surely create a snowball of many more subreddits doing it.

I don’t see reddit ever recovering from this (They’ll not die, but things won’t be the same)

Lemmy and kbin are different things which work on the same backend and are part of the fediverse. Similar to how mastodon is fediverse counterpart of Twitter, lemmy is fediverse counterpart of Reddit, and kbin is a unique thing which is more akin to old school blogging sites.

In case people missed it, lemmy devs reponded to this post here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2977

He mentioned in his post he isn’t interesting in doing that and is instead focusing on his 2nd app. Sad but understandable

A ELI5 guide for lemmy is sorely needed. I can now see the amazing potential, but it took me some time to wrap my head around how it works. A simple guide for beginners so they have a start point is much required.

I’ve been testing lemmy and it’s been working great so far. It only requires some fixes and influx of users.
