Same. I’ve learned a lot since I joined Lemmy.

I genuinely believe centralised social media was created to make you feel like you’re doing something.

How much does that matter?

If it’s an app or an OS I’m still subscribing and getting to watch what they upload, no?

Oh goody, another streaming service…just what the world needs.

But do users get fed?

That’s the thing though American politics get discussed here. With their perceptions of left and right.

I’m on Gram.social but don’t have that experience. Interesting.

I think a lot of people talk like Yanks, or just don’t clarify. I’ve had conversations with other Brits where we both assume the other is a Yank.

I’ve had abuse for posting a short story that validated the group think. Several times.

I get this. I used to use Threads and someone got very angry at me cause I said Labour, supposedly the left wing party in the UK, are “upsetting the right people”, I should have clarified that I don’t think that they are doing a good job, but never mind.

I wouldn’t say it was competing, it would be like saying Reddit and Instagram competed.

I’m also a snowflake, cause it’s also annoying that people assume you’re from USA.

Everything. It’s like early days Instagram, but people are more politically and socially aware, and posting about those things.
