For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.
Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t realize stating the reality precluded me from having an interest in an open protocol or interest in seeing these communications evolve.
If you hate a thing, it’s really easy to avoid it usually, particularly in this case
This is what I’m seeing here.
“Lemmy would be better if it wasn’t an echo chamber. There’s no variety in opinion.”
“Well, if you don’t agree with us you can leave!”
🤦🏻♂️
Where “agree” means “don’t find it to be a shitty platform”
Just seems like an odd thing to get defensive about.
