Don’t forget that the media’s main goal is profit. How can they make sure to make more and more profit? By constantly showing you stuff that keeps you in fear and in turn makes you want to know everything that’s happening. The only way to know the current events? Watch our media segments, read our newspaper, read our website etc. (also see 24/7 news cycle)
What? You mean to tell me that he is not called Sir Prime Minister Mr. Keir Rodney Starmer? Unbelievable.
::: spoiler It’s time for an even more progressive EU, that is not afraid of autocrats. :::
That is exactly why I’m asking. Years ago I had problems with anger. Luckily going to university helped with that. Don’t know how but it helped me.
I wanted to yell at her
Was that the first thing that you thought of?
I swear to god the conversation around Meta joining the fediverse has been one of the most annoying things I’ve had to read about in a while.
is it? on my end, I can see that [email protected] has 50k subs, but it doesn’t come up if I search for it. weird
Im sorry, WTF?
Huh? What do you mean?
At the start it was better, but for about a month now I think there have been more negative interactions than positive ones.
The biggest problem imo is that since Lemmy’s userbase is mostly made up of people who left Reddit, they bring their mentality with them. And the two plaforms have hugely different userbases size wise, so if someone says something really stupid on Reddit you can ignore/ block and you can do that with 1000s of people. On Lemmy if you block 1000s of people, you basically just blocked most people who post/ comment.
/rant over
Yeah basically my biggest problem is with how small the userbase is. ( then again I have a few other problems besides that)
About as triggered as those who downvoted me.
anything I write on the internet should be treated as my private information. If I want to keep any conversation private, I will still post it in a public website.
EDIT: I’m so sorry that my stupid comment offended some people. Always forget how special some people can be on this website. Once again I’m sorry for my lack of better judgement.
Made an account 6 months ago, never posted or commented, then finally makes a post and it’s an 8 hour long schizo shitpost. Well played.
Monthly active users.
Could someone explain how the 2 million users are calculated for Lemmy?
I don’t know if fedidb.org is up to date but there, the total number of users is at 352625.
EDIT: Had to look it up since I wasn’t sure, but I recalled that the 0.19 update changed how MAUs are being counted. Now it includes voters as well.
Previously, site and community activity counts were only based on people who commented, or posted. Those counts now include anyone who voted on a comment or post as well. Thanks to @Ategon for this change.
yikes. hope this gets sorted out soon
Probably both. I try not to sub to any news type communities since they mostly just bring you down.
A tale as old as time.
