As is the way of my people 🇨🇦, I would like to make an apology. It is as follows:
Sometimes, in the heat of the moment, I will say things I later regret. So take this as a blanket statement: if you and I have ever gotten in an argument on Lemmy/Piefed and I called you a mean name (such as ‘stupid’, ‘angry little elf’, ‘grumpy little fella’, etc.), then I am sorry. In most cases, I was not the first to one to fire a shot, but that is beside the point. Please accept my apology nonetheless.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
Right I see. That is an advantage
True, but I think it would be a good thing if this place was less niche. The world would be a better place if Lemmy/Piefed surpassed Reddit in terms of total users. Open protocols > corporate overlords. That said the federation aspect of it might make it disjointed enough to maintain that niche feeling. Your particular instance could still be niche even if the wider fediverse is not
Yeah but ideally you’d want to federate with the wider fediverse, where there may be bots. Because a social network with population one sounds no fun
Wow, I knew the problem was bad, but… Jesus. How do we prevent something like this from happening on Lemmy/Piefed if they end up getting really popular? I guess the fact that post history isn’t private here helps

This is why they’re infiltrating open source projects
Are they infiltrating open source projects too now?
That doesn’t really match my experience
I agree that this seems implausible
