But at what cost?

I’m a .ml peasant so they have to pretend it’s not funny

At the oppression olympics, lemmy.world users take home the gold easily. People of color, women, lgbt ppl, etc never had a chance

Incredibly weak response

It’s only an ‘echo chamber’ when they’re the minority. Every website must be populated by bigoted assholes!

Honestly, disregarding all the whingy fedditers, this is the only comment with anything substantive to it. Worth a reply from op.

Good! I’m a long time lurker, new user.

If you dedicate a day to figuring out how lemmy works then imo it’s quite straightforward. I appreciate the expansion of free speech (i got banned from reddit for telling an AFD member to kill himself) and generally most people here seem ok. it’s still rather niche but oh well. We can fix that by inviting friends! It’s also much more authentic. A lot fewer covert advertisements and more actual people.
