  • Yeah. The Fediverse DOES suck. You won’t hear it from the users here obviously, because of self-righteous anti-capitalist views that drove them here in the first place. And I’m not saying they are wrong or it’s a bad thing, but now you’ve got the furry/band kid table from the high school lunch room helping you form your political opinion and consume your time with AWFUL anime memes.

    This place may be the right fit for some, but a lot of people are here because they don’t fit in elsewhere. Some even claim that it’s the way they like it, but niche communities fail while copies of reddit communities are the only ones with engagement. That and the confusing system for platforms/instances will drive away everyday users who are used to an easy sign up. Lemmy/PieFed and Mastodon will probably carve out a tiny base of users over the next few years, but it’s doubtful that they will ever be mainstream. If reddit fails, another capitalist will swoop in and take their place.

    35 million years ago the dinosaurs had been gone for 30 million years. The Eifelian period where vertebrates were first on land was about 319 million years ago. If you use days instead of years that’s a difference of days that’s like saying I pissed in my bed a month ago, when in fact it was almost and entire year ago. You see, I’ve had issues with my bladder recently. I believe it was an infection, but the doctor says it was just some irritation. He put me on some medicine and it does help, but I think it will clear up on its own either way.
