The TikTok ban and Donald Trump's rise to power show how fragile our social media accounts are. We must normalize and invest in decentralized social media.
I agree but let’s be honest. That may be how it worked in revolutionary France but that wasn’t how it worked in the US in the 20th century. The “3rd Places” that most people were involved in were union halls, civic organizations, and social societies. We’ve largely forgotten that history, but it’s not something we can get back without organizing online first.

Could you maybe edit your comment to something like
"Lemmy has 42k monthly active users
Feel free if you have any questions"
join-lemmy isn’t the best for user onboarding: https://lemmy.world/post/24220536?scrollToComments=true
Lol I don’t know if you saw but I tried and they deleted the top comment.
Yeah 😔
I would recommend an actual cafe with actual humans in it face to face over this
