Geodes & Gems

Apple doesn’t care about user privacy, was that meant to be surprising?

I get it’s obvious but it’s still cool that the borders are still sorta the same.

on a variety of topics, any opinions which do not conform are heavily downvoted.

This is is also a problem on Reddit too, I guess it’s to do with how the entire concept of subreddits or “sublemmies” while I like it for things like memes & fandoms, it makes everybody able to create a closed-off echochamber shut off from every other allowing opinions to become unified at an extreme.

I think I went to Reddit at first because of what it was, I watched a lot of Reddit “reading” videos for a while so decided to join myself, but the Reddit I wanted to join was already gone by the time I actually did join, then it got worse until I didn’t want to take it anymore, the AI got added, then the Games, that was the final straw I think.

This might be a bit of a hot take but I do visit Bluesky more than Lemmy, there’s more activity there & it’s less of an echo chamber, Bluesky still is a bit of an echo chamber I guess but not as much Lemmy can be, also some of the niches I like aren’t on Lemmy. I do hope Lemmy gets more users & Activity, it’d be a bit more comfortable to use.
