I was on lemm.ee for 1.75 years before the post announcing the retirement of that instance. I enjoyed my time on lemm.ee, but understand the retirement. @sunaurus and their team did a fantastic job with that instance and, from looks of it, feddit.online (and piefed overall) devs/mods seem to be cut from the same cloth!
I’m here to chat and open to discussing a lot of topics, so feel free to reach out if interested.
The conservative propaganda machine has been replacing empathy with cold-hard individualism for going on 50-years. Everything is a wedge issue and if it shouldn’t be, it’ll be made one. We like to make comparisons to the rise of fascism in the 1930s, but the tools, methods, and reach of today’s tech makes that time feel like it took root through fortune cookies in comparison.
I don’t know how we can hope to deprogram some of these people.
