Rome. I was so sad when they cancelled it.

Since most governments are filled with people who have way more money than they can spend in a lifetime probably never.

I will never understand why people who live in poverty or barely get by look at some rich CEO/billionaire whatever moneybags person go “yeah this person will probably understand my hardships and make it right, let’s make him governor or president”.

A lot of politicians are completely out of touch and as long as they’re doing well everyone must be doing well (or they simply don’t care).

I agree too. The fact is that our planet is simply fucked if we keep this ever urge for growth. It’s not sustainable and the cracks are clearly showing.

People don’t want to hear it but we should have a max 1 child limit per couple for at least some years or encourage people not to have children at all. Then when we’ve reached a healthy sustainable population have a 2 children max limit.

Less people = less consumption= less pollution.

For real. Even though there is shitposting here too, there is much better conversation going and not the typical “no u” bullshit Reddit is infested with.

I feel like most quality posters left Reddit and it shows in many of the larger subs. Unfortunately not all topics are discussed here yet so I still sometimes have to go to Reddit (don’t have an account anymore). But when I do, holy shit the comment section is a dumpster fire.

A platform is as good as it’s users. I left Reddit because it turned into a shithole. I’ll do the same with Lemmy if that happens.

I actually like the multiple smaller communities here, it’s part of the charm. If you think an instance is becoming too big just go to another one.

You can’t really do that on Reddit since everyone is on the same big instance.

Also leaving Reddit is the best thing for my mental health I’ve done in a while

The record and movie industry must be paying out of their asses to have this shit taught in schools.

Let’s teach our kids the importance of making billionaires richer and not actual important stuff like checking facts or making a well informed decision when voting.

Absolute dystopian bullshit.

Yeah I don’t get it either. I see people moving back to Reddit because of this shit. Lemmy is already much less user friendly. Defederating over dumb shit just makes people move away again since they can’t find the content they want without having ar least a couple accounts.
