That real question is, what problem are we trying to solve? Then we can go from there.

Greed. It's all driven by greed. It's not just social media companies either. My best guess to why it's happening now.. The boomers are aging out and want to take every last bit they can squeeze out before they retire/die.
I just did this. Beehaw acting stupid? Ok now I'm on lemmy.world. Just had to subscribe to the communities I like (a task that will later become trivial I'm sure). Only took a few minutes and I can move on with my day. Back reddit when the admins act stupid everything's fucked. I like it here
Back in my day everyone knew that once you put something on the internet it's there forever to be seen by all. Has everyone already forgotten this? This is nothing new and in fact the way it's always been! Now get off my lawn!
On July 1st my reddit usage will be zero. Until then I take a peek once a day or two to post http://join-lemmy.org where appropriate.
The incoming masses aren't going to understand any of that. They're going to install it off the Play Store, have it crash and say "fuck this lemmy bullshit" before going right back to reddit.
thanks for using Leebra!
