Conservatives don’t often show up on new communities with blatant conservatism. Instead, they try their best to integrate into the culture then slowly turn things rightward. Hell, that’s what happened to Reddit too.

It’s so funny. If Trump shut the hell up for at least a year, he would have had a Canadian government that was completely pliable to his demands. But he had to yap, and now Poilievre is no shoe-in.

It’s similar to how Twitter users say Mastodon is “hard”. They want a 1:1 copy of Reddit or Twitter, and don’t want to learn new things because any kind of learning at all is unpleasant.

But that will change when—not if—the network effect of the social web becomes apparent.

Like Lemmy, I think the UI/UX of Mbin needs improvement. For example, just the other day, I tried to hide a specific community and was t able to easily discover how to do that.

This isn’t to say that Mbin is horrible. I’m using it right now. It just needs improvement.

Well, I know Lemmy, Mbin, and Piefed are imperfect but they will have to do.

As for me, I think I’ll indefinitely stop using Reddit except to keep r/Sizz on maintenance.
