We have the powe to stop corporations. At least for now, as we control the fediverse. However keep in mind, everything meets its end inevitably.

The course is clear: gatekeep the normies. Corporations won't care if easily fooled cattle don't use lemmy.

Do we really want normies on our site? Will they really act as bait for the megacorps to come and ruin our federation?

Don't worry I joined to even it out

I haven't touched Reddit in years and hate corporations

Let's hope this plan works and more people who don't use Reddit and hate corporations join

I mean, that’s the way it goes sometimes. I know it’s like “duh just be like this!” Type statement but people really shouldn’t ever attach themselves to websites, brands, etc. Always be mentally ready to walk away. That doesn’t mean walk at the first shitty experience, but, you know. Gotta know when to ol’ yeller something and reddit passed that point a long time ago. Discord is my personal ol’ yeller project right now besides reddit. Trying to get people to move off since they’re just becoming greedier and greedier + it’s centralized as fuck and they’re starting to make moves, it seems, towards more censorship there despite that kind of being the opposite of what people came to expect.

Corps joining is fine. It’s when the corps are out in control that the issues arise
