    I’ve not yet heard any claims on or outside Lemmy that it is a Reddit clone. The model of hosting forums/communities was never unique to Reddit as far as I know.

    I’m curious what you’re willing to generally apply to “Hexbear folks” (I don’t think I’ve talked to many).

    And Lemmy is totally an echo chamber most of the time (based on my experience, obviously mileage may vary) but it wasn’t intended to be that way unlike almost every commercial social media platform. I would assume this distinction is why people would be less likely to be willing to admit it.


  • They’ve caused a lot of damage though restricting access would likely help with that. (Things like this usually get quite a few downvotes in my experience tbh so maybe it goes both ways)

    My pretty spontaneous solution compromise would be to legalize more things but keep them well regulated to avoid addiction and transition to similar regulations for already legal drugs. This seems like a solution that more people would be happy with. Obviously there would need to be help for people already addicted at least for drugs with similar withdrawal symptoms as alcohol.

    Whenever someone tells me about the problem they’re having on Windows (which I haven’t used on my computer in years) or any Apple OS I explain how I would fix it Linux if I don’t happen to know how on their OS. If the Linux way is easier I also usually give it as a comparison.

    I only really do this with people who I know could easily get Linux working and people already interested in Linux.
