this issue is adoption. for 90% of the casuals, they get their fix from Reddit, tiktok, Instagram, Imgur and youtube. Facebook if they are boomers, and linkedin if they are corporate types. They tend to be milquetoast parrots and regurgitators who think they are so clever “observing” a take that has been so well worn it’s its own ship of theseus three times over at this point. Short of the AI bubble bursting and forcing them elsewhere, I don’t see that changing anytime soon, sadly.

Yeah, an Imgur replacement would be awesome. That place is full of triggerinas now-a-days

For some, lighter moderation is the special sauce though. Like, I want my mods to understand the difference between frustrated venting and actual, actionable threats and/or malicious content.

This may be self serving but if someone could maybe contact Mojang and get the Minecraft instance to be an officially recognized Social Media outlet like r/Minecraft is on Reddit, that would be peachy.

Oh and a syncable mobile app

Came here to say exactly this.

I mean they actually have a brain and can use context clues. There’s also a rather high chance that someone you meet is an ACTUAL HUMAN.

while Lemmy scratches my post reddit itch, this is one of the down sides. Everyone goes to Reddit, despite it being an AI Bot filled shit show, so you never get the same visibility. At least around here you get a better quality of poster, and you don’t need to select your words quite as much.
