Twitter, Reddit and Discord are simultaneously going to shit - because enshittification is what happens when suddenly money isn't free any more and borrowing carries an interest rate

The fediverse is not very well connected suburbs, good for what it is but doesn't do the same job

bsky is gonna do its own fediverse (with beer and shitcoins) and it's fun right now as a single instance with good users, but the staff are the sort of barely-crypto-reactionary free speech warriors who will never block the nazi instances

[youth pastor voice] you know, there's someone else who talked about the tendency of the rate of profit to fall

EDIT: to clarify: Discord is ticking along for now, but they hired some ex-Facebook execs, employees are in revolt and the org is hollowing out. hence (a) bad decisions (b) glitching https://archive.is/fI3hq

@davidgerard what happened to discord - don't use reddit, but that explained what happened when I saw a link to something on there earlier presumably - slashdot anyone?
@bluetyson @davidgerard I'm not really sure what he's referring to there, I use discord regularly and haven't seen any issues. My friends and I have a big server that's all IRL friends in it, and it works great. I haven't really seen anything that makes me think of what reddit or Twitter are doing
@Landrin201 @bluetyson it's getting slightly shakier at the user end, but they hired awful ex-Facebook execs, the employees are in near revolt and the org is hollowing out
@davidgerard @bluetyson that is worrying, but we will have to see what happens.
