@zuck let’s see if that works!

@chrishudsonjr And it’s not only them. Any company that stores any kind of data about you *will* happily turn them over once ordered. People don’t realize that.

@MaJ1 That's not cheating - it's just a different medium. After the whole day of staring my eyes off in front of a monitor screen, I really enjoy an hour spent listening to the authors I like. Give your eyes a break once in a while 🙂

@charadon Don’t worry. Your comments and posts will be back soon 😜

@rwg or it could be as simple as: big instance = big server = potentially capable of ingesting terabytes of data that a single-instance meta server could be generating. So they don’t even bother approaching smaller ones regardless of their value.

@tchambers I'm just wondering how big the network traffic will be from such a humongous Meta instance (if they decide to onboard 1.6B users eventually) and if an average mastodon instance will be able to handle even a fraction of it...

@herag for now I have one on each to explore features of each platform, and also because the interoperability is limited/buggy. Lemmy gives me a topic/community focused experience which I sometimes need (a’la reddit), while mastodon is my endless stream of „tweets” from interesting personas or hashtags. Kbin seems to try to have both, but don’t quote me on that.
