  • In order for lemmy (or any alternative) to really take off, efforts need to be made to mass migrate content. The biggest inhibitor of adoption is the lack of communities, and the user submitted info backing them. Not only would it be beneficial for alternatives to have this on their servers, efforts should be made to index and back up the mountain of how to and general hyper specific sub reddit information for the good of society. The world already lost so much during the last purge of users comments and posts, further enshitification of reddit will only lead to more getting lost. Are any groups working to scrape all (or the most important data) from reddit and break it out in a searchable format here?





  • The majority does not decide us elections. The electoral college does and you can win without a majority vote of the population. And treating 74 million people like it’s their fault when they tried is the exact point I’m arguing. The dnc habitually forces their candidate on the base. Progressives don’t want to be force fed a status quo establishment figurehead that won’t change anything. The dnc should do better and they’d win by a landslide every time. Until then, it’s gonna be close calls every time and when they win presidency they won’t have enough in congress to pass shit






  • False. The democrats ran a terrible campaign. Biden refused to step down, until it was too late to primary. They forced a candidate upon the country without a democratic process. Their campaign had terrible messaging and was tone deaf to the real situation the working class faces. They were unable to convince millions of voters that showed out for them last time to show up again. The democrats are more concerned with protecting their donors than they are protecting the working class and winning. Until you and everyone else oblivious can come to grips with this, nothing will change.

    And before you say anything stupid, I voted for her.
