Yea I’d like to see a graph of refineries hit in the last 12 months

Great to see, the more big institutions do this, the easier it becomes for others to follow.

Nigeria has more births than the whole of Europe.

Hopefully they can do something good, I also have a lot of hope for South Africa, but big things are probably not going to happen in my lifetime

I wouldn’t say Yippee, both suck.

I wish Europe picks up the pace

They’re banning books, that says a lot.

Gatekeeping, nice.

It’s not a problem on PieFed, it’s mostly been delt with

Reddit already requires it in the UK, afik.

But it’s mostly speculation form my side.

That is probably true, I do wish for a future where people can migrate to say https://www.eurosky.tech/ and alternatives, while benefiting from having so many users already

I’d also like this, but I feel you’ll get pushback against this on the Fediverse

Perhaps it’s a feature instance’s can set as default or not themselves

No, that’s why I said it’s technically decentralized.

They have 40 million users though, they focused on UX first, and will now hopefully not be dicks and actually become decentralized

I think we should just hide all of that complexity and just set defaults for everything that the user can decide to change if they want. You don’t have to understand how the Fediverse works to be able to use it. Most people don’t understand how email works, they just use it.

BlueSky has 40+ million users, and it’s also technically decentralized like the Fediverse.

aka. you can use the eurosky.social or bluesky.social server etc.

I hate being left wing sometimes https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vHfbUIQeW_A

You can try without having step 1 in place, but you might get picked up by reddit’s filters.

If you have a brand new account you often can’t post in most subs or will get flagged for Advertising etc.

Only visible if someone makes a comment in a sub that you mod.

Text posts simply don’t get the same message across though, which is why they aren’t as effective.

You can communicate a LOT more info in a short time-span with a image.

Do you NEVER watch movies because books exist?

The post will get ZERO traction if it’s not a image post, I’ve tried.

Did you read what my post was about?

What’s unethical about it?

I really hate the elitism / gatekeeping I so often see on here.

People scoffing at those still using other platforms, thinking they’re better than them etc.

So you don’t want to share your community with me?

I still find reddit enjoyable. I use both reddit and PieFed. PieFed lacks niche communities, for that I go to reddit.

Also reddit’s UX is still a lot smoother, I hope PieFed gets there but I’m not going to kid myself and say it’s as good as Reddit just yet.
