I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day
https://old.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/1ijmkc0/make_the_switch_away_from_meta/
Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc. If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.
I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.
Please note that I am not referring to specific instances like lemmy.ml or lemmygrad.

Imagine being angry at dessalines.
Even tagged them, wow
Your arrogance is beyond words, personally attacking the devs that created and tirelessly maintain the very platform you’re using to write this garbage comment.
Go use reddit, it will align with your worldview much better since it is run by corporations that sell your data for profit, making use of their god given right to “personal freedom” as defined by the CIA, and don’t allow anything left of Mussolini on their platform.
Are you mad that people don’t like tankies spouting RT talking points?
Rt talking points like what, exactly? Half the time I see a lib frothing at the mouth bc they saw an RT link, I go and read it and it’s just outright quoting Ukrainian officials with a source.

Not new, and I’m fine with lemmygrad but thanks for the concern. I’ll make sure to avoid the likes of you instead
Thanks, I guess. You seem like a very nice and reasonable person.
Rich coming from a literal Russian propagandist.
Bold words coming from a supporter of russian genocidal imperialism!
And please don’t play dumb! We both know the overwhelming majority of tankies only speak English and at absolute best may have visited Europe for a week 20 years ago (let alone Cuba or China).
What are you even talking about?? English is my second language and I lived in Europe almost my entire life. And I visited Cuba, it was nice.
The great majority of the world’s “tankies” aren’t from the Global North but from the Global South and from actually-existing socialist states like China, Vietnam, and Cuba.
Totally!
They don’t look at you and see a demagogue who is roleplaying online, oh no.
It’s funny how you talk big about the “global south” and “actually-existing socialist states” and yet you have a very orientalist and honestly racist worldview.
You think people in Cuba or say Vietnam are idiots who can’t see through basic bullshit.
wtf are you even talking about
The White Man’s Burden with fake commie characteristic!
The best part of this comment is how it implies that people from China, Cuba, or Vietnam are just one big unit that all think and act the same, all while baselessly accusing davel of orientalism.
You should try to set your own bar at basic honesty and see how it works out for you.
You’re so close to getting it! ;)
I knew that tankie knew exactly what I was saying and was playing dumb:
I can tell how much grass you touch based on this comment alone
Brah, “touch grass bla bla” is pretty stale by this point.
Btw, it’s winter in the northern hemisphere!
You did not suggest anything, you came in flying with insults
Oh nooo, I insulted a product which is developed by mentally unstable people, how could I. Forgot that we are in church here, sorry mate
Eh, insulting is fine, insulting without a stated reason is just confusing, gotta give people some context.
To be honest I’m not fine with being insulted by that guy.
I’m genuinely sorry you have to go through all the slander and name calling people like to throw at you and Dessalines for developing wonderful software that isn’t full of lib-bias censorship tools and other questionable decisions 💜🫂🫂❤️🔥
Thank you :)
Yeah, FWIW, having a viable non-chud alternative to reddit 6 or so years ago was nothing short of a godsend. And that it was made by actual comrades was just icing on the community cake. Though clearly the libs will never be able to forgive you for making the best federated social media platform while being principled and ideologically consistent in ways they never can be.
So I figure what better place than yet another thread soiled by a tantrum-throwing toddler screeching about how mean the tankies are who made the platform he’s screeching and sobbing on, to sincerely thank you & Dessalines for what you’ve made and for the work you do.
Basically the context is this: !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
Ah yes, the embarrassed fascism comm
The com run by an outright fascist?
Well, you know what they say about liberals and fascism.
