    Nah you’re just attached to the old idea of the One Big Marketplace of Ideas, where all the saints and sinners of all the world gather 'round and hash it out. I get it. But it didn’t work out, specifically because corpos put profit over community well-being, so that’s why I’m here.

    I’m sure there will be bridging or collating tools for people like you who don’t want to give up precious content just because it comes from a problematic source. Personally, I think wanting it all misses the point of real community.

      What are you talking about? There’s nothing stopping corporations from coming here and doing the same exact thing they’ve gone covertly on Reddit. If Lemmy becomes popular enough it will happen. Arguably it already has from certain interests and people here are extremely naive if they think it’s not.
