Don’t get me wrong, I prefer if platforms don’t take a political stance at all. That’s the reason why I use platforms like Lemmy.

I am simply just pointing out that conservative ideologies have been oppressed online and in the media for the greater part of a decade. Funny to see how the left are losing their minds now that they get a little taste of it themselves.

And how old are you?

Good. Now the leftists can get a taste of what conservatives have experienced for years.

Do you sleep in the same bed then?

Better yet, have a de-Google’d phone and don’t connect it to the car. Don’t see why it is “better” not to have one at all.

Yeah, don’t ever connect your phone to your car. It has been proven that they steal all your data.

Honestly, I don’t care much about whether it’s ethical or not. The big corporations that produce a lot of this content is billion-dollar corporations that are trying to shove woke leftist ideologies down our throats (For example Disney). I take pleasure in making them miss out on revenue.

Oh I have nothing against it at all, I just have no interest in watching them lol

Nothing elitist by any means. I’d love for everybody to come enjoy the Fediverse - it’s a cool place. But to be realistic, we all know that most people are too stupid to ever realize how much Big Tech platforms suck

I don’t even know what that means, so I guess I’ll never know. Perfectly content with my blissful ignorance haha

I like it!

Good. I don’t want to see some teenagers doing some dumb dance or whatever is on normie platforms.

Agreed. And when you think about, everything is unproductive, really. You are here for a short period of time, and nothing is productive in the grand scheme of things. How does the universe benefit from what Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates have achieved? Absolutely not at all. The Earth is a speck of dust in the grand scheme of the Universe. Just live life and do whatever you want. Enjoy this weird existence that we somehow all were blessed (and cursed) with. Nobody knows why or how we are even here, so just enjoy it as much as you can, while you can.

I used to feel the same way sometimes, but then I thought about it for a while, and reflected on my own life as well. I see all these people around me that are busy pursuing fancy degrees and high-paying jobs. But at what coast? I thought to myself that following societal norms/expectations does not seem fulfilling or interesting to me at all. Why would I want to do things I don’t enjoy, just because it’s what everybody else is doing? No. I decided not to worry about it, and just do whatever I feel like doing, regardless of what other people think about it. If you enjoy laying in bed all day, reading Lemmy content, and nothing else, then fine. Do it. You are not wasting your life because you don’t do what everybody else is doing. You are wasting your life if you don’t do what you want to do, that’s it.

Was the name by chance inspired by Stranger Things? Haha

No thanks. The Fediverse needs to remain anonymous, or at least users need to have the option not to provide any personal information.

Migrate her over to a Federated alternative. No aggressive algorithms here

Because then there would need to be a centralized entity to host all user accounts, and we don’t want centralization 'round here

It doesn’t matter. You shouldn’t go to an instance just because it has the most members. If we do that, we’ll end up ruining the Fediverse, because the platforms will just become centralized. In stead, find one that aligns the most with your values/content you want to see.

So what is the most de-googled one?
