  • very hot take:

    regular people will never get rid of twitter or meta, Facebook. YouTube. it’s incompatible with their psychology.

    they need to use what other people are using, they need to see “content” from their followed users

    switching to another platform will kill that for them for weeks and stall their “growth”

    to be forward thinking and to give up something you’ve had is too much for the average person

    which is why I’m on Lemmy: there’s nothing reddit offers to me that makes me “give” it up, it’s always been there but now that there’s competition it’s worth trying something new out

    I honestly think id anything Lemmy will have a slow decrease of users until it comes to a halt

    there are systems in place that know how to allocate funds better than just giving it to someone

    (and yes some of these orgs are bad as well)

    but imo there is a way to be altruistic and share a small percentage of your income towards and org with a good reputation (and hopefully some research was done)

    which is far better than walking up to vulnerable people. sticking a camera at them and handing them bills
