    holy fuck

    i'm just some asshole with a 13+ year old account that would bitch and moan in the comments section

    i can't imagine dedicating so much of my time to build a wonderful community and then being unceremoniously cast away as part of a large purge of dissent

    I enjoyed the chemistry between the main characters.

    I could be forgetting a bunch of earlier episodes, but despite the theme I found it pretty entertaining and lighthearted.

    Despite how quickly trends/content can age on the internet, you shouldn't mistake that for actual transitions in platforms.

    There's a ton of logistical and infrastructure-related issues that need to be sorted out, but you're being defeatist if you don't think that just because there haven't been mass migrations within a year, any sort of shift is irrelevant.

    Twitter and reddit have incredible momentum and it takes a long time to slow them down.

    Just look at how desperate Twitter has been with their advertising - I don't think anyone would say they haven't suffered some incredible damage over the last 8 months

  • Took a peek on Reddit, it really boggles my mind how oblivious and obedient people are.

    The lack of societal solidarity for the betterment of everyone is sad.

    But that's ok, reddit was never going to die after this protest.

    I think what took place was a successful test of what alternatives exist out in the wild.

    Now it's up to those of us who migrated to post through the highs and lows of early adoption in order to encourage others to come and stick around when the next shitty move by Spez takes place.

    For example, I migrated to Mastodon in late 2018 during an initial surge. And over the years tried to keep posting content so that when the next migration took place when Elon took the reigns, people were able to possibly feel more at home.

    This shit takes time. A lot of time. But the internet is a big place and there's plenty of opportunity for things to be better. We just can expect things to rush themselves

    Love how creative teammates can get in passing off any blame for a loss. I get it a lot as a long-time player and master of trash. This morning, had someone bring up my goals per match average to tell me that they just can't carry someone with that low of an average. Anyone have any unique ways they were told they're trash?

    That's kind of a bummer. On Mastodon I can follow people from other instances, why can't I subscribe or even _see_ communities on other instances?
