    I love these comments. It shows the federation is working. If reddit did this it was “oh no what now” but with lemmy it’s just “time to move to another instance”

      I just don’t like the idea of having 500 accounts after it’s all said and done, especially if most of them wind up being unused… unless I’m fundamentally doing something wrong by creating a new account on every instance I want to use?

        I mean you won’t, they way it’s going to shake out is instances with similar values form nation-states and cut ties with other nation-states they dont agree with

        well probably see the emergence of meta-alliances soon that dictate the degree of separation of a blacklisted instance.

        I mean saying 500 is a little hyperbolic but this is exactly why federation exists and isn’t just another Reddit.

        You find what you like and go there. It’s really no different than the old forums. Reddit centralized everything, lemmy is that but also the old way.

      I feel a little better about it if lemmy provided migration tools.

      It certainly not the end of the world but it is kind of a pain in the ass.

      Reddit has plenty of piracy communities, being more strict than reddit is is just unnecessary

        They also had quite a few subs that got shut down due to copyright threats. Reddit can afford to fight multimillion dollar suits.

        We should just move posting to reddit and have the lemmy instance in question only be links to reddit posts.

      I love it. We will win in the end, against the corpos, they shall rule in Hell whilst we serve in Heaven

        Normal people not wanted to put themselves in legal jeopardy doesn’t make them a “corpo”.

          Not really, in seeking to gain power, they create something worthless by destroying what is valuable, but by working together, we create something glorious that none of us are really in charge of.
