Don't replace X with Bluesky! Go to Mastodon and other Federalised platforms. That is the only way to escape corporate-sponsored fascism.

It costs money to run and admin servers though

Same on lemmy... Yet, here we are? I'd call that a win.

I'd rather have a bunch of smaller dudes hosting servers than yet another US multinational that will use their money to destroy democracies around the world.

Serious question: what is a US multinational?

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

probably meant US conglemerate
