    Indeed! Which is why they need to be shown the real world. Lemmy isn’t that, but it could shock their systems into believing that /r/conservative isn’t, either.

      I’ve been aware of the fediverse since the api-lypse but have just been lurking for a good while. I really hope we manage to find a social media system that doesn’t bow to censorship. We need to find a way that lets us decentralize servers to not rely on AWS.

        That costs a lot of money. “Finding” that sort of thing is basically just going to involve donating a bunch of cash, on an ongoing basis.

          Finding could also mean letting users share hosting responsibilities. Like making fediverse similar to torrenting.

            Interesting idea. I don’t know if we have a robust enough infrastructure for that right now, but it’s conceptually interesting.
