  • What war? Dafuq are you talking about?

    I left Reddit because I strongly dislike what it’s become. This place is better. Why should I want it to be more like Reddit?

    Platform growth does not matter here. We legitimately do not give a shit. The fediverse, in entirety, is not now, and never will be, beholden to shareholders, because of the very nature of its OSS underpinnings. We will grow organically, or not, and it will be fine. We don’t need a huge influx of users. In fact, a huge influx of users would kinda suck for a lot of admins, because it would cause a HUGE spike in OpEx, and potentially necessitate the purchase of more infrastructure, which admins probably wouldn’t love.

    Yes, but… speaking from experience, it is definitely possible to overdo it on that angle. The psychological impacts of heavy long term use are… shall we say, unsubtle, but at the same time, REALLY hard to admit and see for yourself if you’re in the throes of it.

    Moderation and T-breaks are frankly pretty crucial.
