but what if the rock is a real piece of shit? and what about the nuts fashion choices?
Just because you adopted pedantry in order to push out topics you hate hearing about doesn’t mean everyone else has to adopt your constructed definitions.
It’s not so much about the definitions as it is about the expectations. This is lemmy, we aren’t in a bubble, remember… and just because you go with whatever the mainstream tells you doesn’t prevent other users from trying to determine if this community meets our expectations of discussions around actual technology rather than mainstream gossip.
I think it would help define it or give examples of what it is or isn’t intended to include.
Agreed. I’d rather not see this place turn into frontpage news for tech companies (even if the subtext is critical). Currently the predominant things being posted are Elon/X or Big Tech Bad. I feel that if the focus was more on the technology aspect, we can get away from the gossipy/reactionary “news”

And Lemmy doesn’t live in a bubble.
lol ok…
what is technology to you?
What is this community for exactly? Is it for technology? Because I don’t really see many (if at all) posts about technology. Just complaining/dooming about big tech companies/people who run said companies.
fr. all the knee jerk reactions to every sensationalized/misleading headline concerning big corps are getting out of control.

your feed should clear up.
This works for like a few days, then inevitably the cycle begins again…
Thank you for an actually reasonable explanation
Xmpp was a messaging protocol though, is that really comparable to decentralized forums?
Thanks
Is there anything preventing instances from defederating from threads?
“There are rumours that Meta would become “Fediverse compatible”. You could follow people on Instagram from your Mastodon account”
Are there examples of this? Or is this just the fear? This all seems like a knee jerk reaction to something we are already avoiding by being on Lemmy/mastodon. The point of having decentralized instances isn’t popularity. It’s to avoid the corporate bullshit, which is inherently less popular.
