Do you remember the GameStop stuff that happened with the bond traders and Reddit?

There are lot of parts interested in taking down Reddit. And same thing will not stop at the fediverse.

I just hope fediverse is harder to control. If an instance grow so much like Lemmy world we could end up on a similar boat right?

There is a big difference between users that consider Reddit/Lemmy as a work place and users that consider it as a forum (expecting 0 money from the app. Just helping others or getting help from others).
