I just watched the section of the interview where Jerry (admin of fedia.io and infosec.exchange), and he said that
There are a lot of people who aren’t that lucky. Even charging a 1$ fee is too much. That is their lifeline, it’s their way to connect to friends, and search for jobs. To me, I don’t think it’s appropriate to gatekeep it with a monthly fee.

The problem here is that while individual instances may die, there is always a new
suckerenthusiast coming up thinking “my server will be different”.
Not the nicest way to talk about @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone, @Shadow@lemmy.ca or @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip
I’m currently watching the interview (quite interesting, to be honest, funny to watch an interview about Fediverse services). Could you please share the timestamp when Jerry talks about finances and costs?
Isn’t https://elest.io/open-source/lemmy still a thing? Different model from you, though.
How many people do you know IRL who are not in tech and use Reddit ?
Personally everyone I know is on TT/IG, only the tech people are on Reddit
The Reddit-style text-based forums are becoming more and more of a niche market.
People nowadays scroll videos on TikTok and IG, almost nobody is using Reddit itself
The SteamDeck uses Linux. It took 20 years, but it’s still something.

That’s incorrect, I don’t know why the person you’re replying too is thinking this
I will check, but IIRC downvotes on ignored communities aren’t accounted either
As much as public modlogs are required, the lack of accountability of some mods repeatedly reported for power tripping makes me question sometimes if all of this is not in vain.
!privacy@lemmy.ml is still the most popular privacy community
!world@lemmy.world is still the most popular world news community
On the other hand, there are several features that Lemmy always ignored, and that exist on Piefed
Beehaw has been asking for better moderation tools for two years, it’s nothing new.
Also the lemm.ee admins burnout made people question how to deal with toxic users
Following the lemm.ee announcement, moderators were looking for a way to migrate communities
Piefed had such feature: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/45876492?scrollToComments=true
No need to think of an organized campaign when one platform has a feature that people are looking for
Hello,
You might want to use this kind of links to posts, as they are easier to interact with: https://lemmyverse.link/piefed.social/post/891425
Definitely. Posting https://whtwnd.com/bnewbold.net/3lo7a2a4qxg2l as its own post would probably help
This news probably deserve its own post
Agree, especially as the OOP crossposted it
No questions from my side, just a big thank you to mention Mbin, Lemmy, the Fediverse in that interview. It’s probably the first time for me where I watch a video talking about all of this, which is curious with how part of my daily life it is.
I still haven’t watched everything, but one of your quotes sounded resonated with me “We’re only here for a short time. Why should we be a-holes to each other, and not just try to enjoy ourselves?”
Anyway, thank you for everything, take care!
