Took me a moment to digest all that, thanks for the laughs. No relation whatsoever. I do, however, agree with OP that there seems to be something shady going on with these bans on Lemmy. does not appear incidental

https://lemmy.world/post/51345527.

Basically this. Quadruple moderation on lemmy is stupid.
Reddit agents easily ban content and active contributors

Quadruple moderation.
Moderation is waay waay worse on lemmy

Look I’m coding with ai every day.
Can we please stop pretending it don’t increase productivity 100x

But you see my friend - most these stupid communities don’t let you just post random URLs. If people don’t understand what they are seeing they accuse you if being a bot. Article is fine IMO, phoronix I thought exclusively cover Linux and shit

God I hate google so much

Yeah but I think that’s just changed with ai.

Why? Are gonna write article?

Grateful for this graphene os team.
They are doing a great job.

Alienating google is not really a problem in my view, google is already alien and hostile to everyone so it changes nothing.

telegram channnels. god I hate telegram channeles and they could be wrong. but you remember “damagged” sentry? (which was actually destroyed)

not just multiple! allegedly - they say Iran destroyed 8 F-15 planes and 1 A-10 in a single strike on the ground.

And Houthis just did a literal blietzkrieg TODAY - and took several islands, huge territory and an important port - and no news outlets covering this.

This is complete failure of US intelligence and US navy, This is total failure of republican led military. how can you control the seas and let thta happen?

and guess what - red sea - closed. our fleet will have to sail back around Africa now - no I kid you not (or beg Houthis to let them pass - houthis might let em but damn this is bad)

they all rats

Ya same I just want more options. Now they just politely going each other way instead of competing. Assholes watch out - harmony os will eat their lunch

This keeps happening and what - you just gonna wipe your face from Microsoft piss, smile and keep using their surveillance product? Nah just switch to Linux

Yeah but can you really trust pixels? Google hardware, ewww. I would rather pay more for proper hardware

Very much needed.
This has been missing for years

Can they make another android competitor?
Since software is cheap nowadays. I’m sick and tired of Google shit

God I hate nyc, such a shithole

they cant change fundametals - device working against me is not MY device.
which is why - doesnt matter if they rewrite everyting in rust, it wont sell.
people know nowadays

And once again, you people completely ignore the numbers. (which is why I give second option -** extremely naive** or reddit agent). you could just be naive I dont know

~750k accounts registered. ~35k MAU. That’s not me insulting lurkers or saying commenters don’t matter. That’s me pointing out that an enormous number of people tried Lemmy and didn’t stick around.

You can keep saying “people don’t want this,” but you’re measuring the preferences of the tiny fraction who stayed and treating them as representative of everyone who tried the platform.

Maybe reposts turned some people off. Absolutely possible. Maybe empty communities, tankie reputation, moderation, UX, federation confusion, or lack of content turned others off. That’s exactly the discussion worth having.

But “I personally hate your posts, therefore Lemmy’s current strategy is working” doesn’t follow.

And disagreeing about why a platform isn’t retaining users isn’t evidence of a “worrying mental state.” Attack the argument, not my mental health.
