If you take a look at biger picture it becomes obvious what is happening.

But saying it will mark anyone as persona non grata, so I will leave it to reader to find out where increase in hate and violence is coming from.

Wow! Article with images it talks about.

Do Americans and Europeans?

I never understood why people can see it locally, but can not understand when applied to Russia and China.

While I am utterly against laws like this, “genocide” is too much.

What you are doing is just wiping of history of genocide done by different countries (mostly western), by using word for something that is much less than systematically killing millions and even hundreds of millions, just take this as an example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide_of_indigenous_peoples and than decide which word you will use.

And by commercializing it they would destroy it, since they will be promoting content that generates most clicks and everything will become agresive.

They did say “X milions of accounts were ACTIVATED in one day”, not “created”.

Gentoo, obviously.

I use it since it works. But it also has up to date packages. Number of times I tried moving away from it and it is just not possible.

I use Mint on side-desktop (one with graphic card I use for gaming and deep learning) and while it is easy to use it also has old software, python is stuck on 3.7 or 3.8 so it is becoming unusable even.

Will gentoo give you some problems? Probably, but those are always solvable and you will spend less time on other stuff.

Simple as that, of some instances federate with them I will not use them.

We will have block list like with ads, if necessary.

I don’t think that FB even knows that lemmy exist, problem is they are so big they will crush us by accident.

Even back than with XMPP, Google didn’t kill it intentionally. No one expected it will be smaller than before google used it. I remember watching empty list where all friends were. But it happened, and I never thought that Google wanted to kill XMPP.

Maybe they want to use Activity Pub so that they can influence further development of it. I don’t know procedure how w3c is makeing decisions and updates to it, but I doubt someone that is not using it can have influence.

I also think they don’t care about us, I doubt they even know we exist.

That doesn’t change that they would destroy us unintentionally. Like Vogons.

Peertube is youtube like federated software, while owncast is something like twitch I think. Like lemmy and kbin, while https://tilvids.com/ is one instance of peertube, but it’s owner is really trying to bring high quality content over there. You can get a feeling of what are they trying to make be reading their blog: https://blog.tilvids.com/ it is really something that makse me optimistic.
