Is this any surprise? I applaud the effort to state it plainy, but if you’ve been paying attention to the development of the MAGA movement since 2015 it seems pretty obvious that authoritarian facism on behalf of the white supremacists has always been the goal.
When you’ve been exposed to nothing but capitalsm your whole life it’s incredibly hard to be convinced that anything else could even work. Just like people born into religious cults, it’s hard to break when it’s all you’ve known.
I think the intent is that no end user will even need to know of it. As long as it gets built into applications it can still be widely adopted.

Whether it's YouTube, Twitter or Reddit, all corporations that make their profits from advertising on the back of UGC have the same systemic failure in their calculus.

There's a monetary incentive to provide a platform to hate. There isn't one to deplatform it.

I hopped onto Lemmy yesterday when I saw the news that Sync was shutting down. Already enjoying the communites more than I ever was on reddit.

I'm using jerboa right now, agreeded. It's not the worst experience but there's definitely improvements to be made.

There's a real opportunity in transitioning existing reddit clients to access Lemmy instead. Keep the user base, change the platform.

It was a really well done app. I'm hoping that the developers can pivot to a lemmy client, just so their work doesn't go to waste.
