So facts doesn’t really matter because I’m interested in Tesla? That’s your argument? Twitter had about $7.1 billion in debt before Elon Musk bought it. When Elon Musk bought Twitter, he took on an additional $13 billion in debt to finance the acquisition.
Edit: The simple fact that people are downvoting me for telling the truth honestly says a lot about the state of Lemmy and some of those who migrated here. I had higher hopes for this place, but Im afraid it has become an echo chamber-circle jerk for bitter, non-factual conversations, where people downvote and attack instead of engaging in honest conversation.
As for why I moderate that sub, it’s primarily because I’m trying my best to recreate the Reddit experience here on Lemmy, in order to assist with the migration. When I joined, that sub didn’t exist on Lemmy, so I had to create it myself - hence, why I’m a moderator. I appreciated the content that sub provided on Reddit, so I aim to offer that experience to those who migrate. I also post on other subs where the topics are relevant. This witch hunt is absolutely ridiculous and detrimental to making Lemmy a more welcoming and improved place compared to Reddit.
I think being upset about downvotes says a lot more about you than anything else. After all if lemmy is such a loss in your eyes, why bother with such a hugely descriptive and defensive edit. Why not just leave.
If you can’t see that this mob mentality of attacking users instead of addressing their key points in an argument is detrimental to the platform than we are not heading anywhere productive. Lemmy will simply be reduced to an echo chamber of older users who don’t accept or are even willing to engage in honest argumentation.
Comparatively to all other social media? lol no, not even close. I haven’t seen this mob mentality of attacking users at all. Unless you’re just talking about upvotes and not dialogue? Lemmy overall is super chill, very friendly and theres a tons of interesting, intelligent conversations going on. Is there an asshole comment every now and then? Of course, because assholes exist. Thats always bound to happen. I’ve been browsing every community on all, and I go through the various sorting types since active and hot are a bit buggy. Maybe its the areas you’re hanging out in? I have seen people freak the fuck out over downvotes though, a couple of times. Reddit has/had really fucked with a lot of peoples ways of thinking in regards to social media voting systems.
To a certain degree I agree with you. But, if you don’t follow the narrative, things are quite different. An example of this is the prevalent anti-Elon narrative. Even pointing out nuances will result in you being brigaded.
…I’m sorry that no one likes the thing you like, I guess? What do you expect me to say? Sorry most people see your fav as terrible? If it really bothers you that much either a) leave lemmy or b) be the change/ignore the haters. What are you even comparing this to? Reddit? Twitter? Because like I said, comparative to all other social media lemmy is pretty fucking great. It’s beginning to sound more like you just enjoy complaining at this point.
Lemmy has potential but it’s not good when pointing out nuances will get you brigaded. Hating or loving Elon isn’t really the point as I’m interested in discussions that seek to be as truthful as possible. Just see my comment history and you will see what I talk about.

Because I belive ln a better future for Lemmy. I will not be dictated by this mob mentality.
Being upset about downvotes and ranting about the lemmy atmosphere seems in opposition to what you’re saying, but ok. Good luck with that

But honestly why do you want me to leave?
If the entire world tells you that water is wet, it’s not a mob mentality drummed up by Big Hydro.
So if im telling factual information about twitters debt situation and get downvoted into oblivion that makes it not true? Is this your logic?
It simply calls into question how factual your facts are.
Call me out on my facts. What part about it do you have an issue with?
I honestly don’t care enough to engage further with your bullshit.
and what is the bullshit?
