  • Looking at the tracker comments seem to reaching parity with posts again, as they were pre-blackout. For the two days of the protest 67% of subs were private, yet posts hardly deviated from the norm - and comments only slightly below. Is the implication that people in subs that didn’t join in like r/news etc just posted/commented that much more in a show of support ha ha ha, or is this a de facto admission that much of the site’s traffic is just bots? Are investors down with that? I haven’t seen this actually hashed out in discussions much.








  • I don’t get where all this talk of the Fediverse being daunting to learn comes from. I thought it would be like setting DIP switches on a dot matrix printer…but I selected my usual username, provided email for backup, short summary of why I’m here - bam! Connecting to the rest of the Verse, how it’s all interconnected, well, that’s a titch more involved - but to me it’s just registering again at lemmy or kbin, and I can link things up when I have the time.

    The analogy of continents/states/counties/towns sums it up well. There was a really good post at reddit summarizing things.
