I’ve been exploring the fediverse and subbing and posting all over the damn place. Realizing lemmy can federate with kbin blew my mind. Not to mention the possibility of turning my old laptop into a personal server to host my own instance. Is this what it felt like to discover how the internet worked in the 90s?

    I looked in on one of the subreddits I used to frequent. The moderator had posted a good explanation of what was going on, why they considered it unacceptable, and what they were going to do about it. That generated a long thread of people saying, “No one cares. You don’t matter. Get over yourself. Go away.” Those people have no idea about the amount of effort that volunteers make to manage things so they can live in happy ignorance.

    I wish them well, but I don’t want to hang out with them anymore. There are better options.
