I can’t get people to understand that the people who cloned Reddit to make Lemmy didn’t make something different, they made a shitty copy. There is clearly no innovation regarding solving the fundamental underlying, unaddressed problems of democratic social media.
Yeah the back end is slightly different, but from the end user perspective, it’s a link dump filled with morons.
Until we move to a merit-based system of commenting and posting, we’re going to be going in circles looking at stupid memes and misinformation and ill-considered opinions from idiots.
Clone of reddit with a little bit of 4chan edge from feeling antisocial and anti authoritarian in here as well.
I’m not sure how merit based would work but I still think a public shame board of recent bans with their comment or post that got them banned with how long would do a lot to make it more obvious what the mods do and who is repeat offending.
I mostly just try to vote on what is relevant to the conversation but it’s a mess on all the social media sites these days.
It already is Reddit.
