I’m getting very tired of the privacy nuts. I get that it’s important, but I don’t want to hear about it all the fucking time. I also miss my city subreddit, but I’d rather hear about how Google’s fucking me over for bajillionth time than use the Reddit app.
I mean, Lemmy itself is FOSS, and the vast majority of instances are running on Linux. The main reason I am here and not on Reddit is that Lemmy is FOSS.
Lemmy wasn’t specifically built for being primarily a platform for discussing the things it was built on. It makes sense there’s a nice lively community for all of those topics, but they are so out of whack proportion wise with the types of content I want to see.
Yeah, some made paranoia going on in some communities. The amount of people telling me I shouldn’t use the apps on my smart TV due to privacy yesterday was mental.

Agreed. Foss, privacy, Linux. Topics that are too high a proportion of all Lemmy posts.
Yes, reading Lemmy you’d think Linux has a 90% market share.
Outside of amd64 desktops it kind of does.

I got into a similar situation ower my bedside lamp… I perfectly understand what you mean.
I wonder if this is what the internet was like in the 90s when everyone on it was lien the Lone Gunmen from the X-files?
