What baffles me is, how can someone who leads a media company be so out of touch with reality and current events ?
Fellon Muskolini is defaulting on rent, created a literal toxic environment by cutting janitorial and cleaning services, stifled Google Cloud and AWS - two services he needs to keep the site working, destroyed the value of the company, made fun of a disabled Icelandic national hero, and this is just skimming the surface. Now /u/Spez come in public to say he admires all that incompetence ?
There’s being oblivious and then there’s… whatever alternate-world insanity that goes inside his peanut brain.
I was pretty fed up with Reddit and the many site issues and instabilities they were having in the last couple years, not to mention the level of discussions that had deteriorated significantly in the same time-frame. I had already stopped visiting, even deleted bookmarks to Reddit, all in favour of hanging out on Mastodon.
I’m glad I did, because Mastodon opened my eyes to the sheer beauty of the Fediverse. Heck, I’ve been mucking around the Internet since nineteen-ninety-seven, and this federated stuff really brings back a little bit of that magic network of yore, full of weirdness and exploration, with actual discourse. The only thing missing are the “under construction” GIFs.
Wait I’m new here, is Mastodon federated with Lemmy?
Yes. I tested it, you can follow SubLemmies from Mastodon and even reply to threads and comments from there. I haven’t tested the opposite, but it should be possible.
You’re welcome! ;)
