It probably goes against the philosophy or whatever of FOSS or Lemmy itself, but why not be a little evil so that you can actually sustain yourself?

First of all, let me say that while the admins can do what they want, I think it’s pretty unfortunate that beehaw is defederating from .world and shitjustworks. I don’t want to see the fediverse fracture, I want it to encourage conversation with others....

people posting here are going out of their way to post – and it feels like every thought has more weight or sanctity or meaning when it’s being posted here, at the dawn of a new era and the fall of an old....
