I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of us are here to avoid another corporate takeover of our preferred platforms. It would seem to me to be a tad irresponsible to allow Facebook into our space with open arms, allowing them to hoover up our data. I would love to keep using Lemmy.world, but will happily change instances if need be, and I feel many share that sentiment.

I do, but what I don't understand is subscribing to a community on an instance you hate. Or did you not realize that this is a Lemmy world community?

What difference does it make?

It's like driving to a city just to get out of your car and shout why you hate that city, then leave. It's just like... why not go somewhere else then and move on with your life?
