You'll be happy to know there's a social media site just like lemmy run by capitalists. It has all the benefits that capitalist ownership provides.

You can't just turn off the treat spigot. This is the kind of thing that's actually going to agitate americans politically.

Youtube with ads, single login netflix, paid social media, these places are playing with fire, lmaoo.

And to speak to grad and hexbear, a large part of the reason there are commies here is because they were driven off other platforms. Hexbear and Grad are both decendent from active communities that reddit banned.

Seeing all the scaremongering about those communities here reminds me of the old comic. :

They're called that because they're hard-baked.

our site

sorry to break it to you, but the person who runs your instance might be more aligned with the hexbears than with you.

I mean, it could be misogyny. Lets not rush to judgement.

I see more manjaro than ubuntu.

Ubuntu had so many years as the "default" that people have some old perfect version of ubuntu that they liked better. Some early version from the gnome2 days, or else people who loved unity.

For my part, the last time I tried it, there were snap and apt versions of so many apps, that when you had an issue it was hard to troubleshoot because there would be two sets of solves. That was enough to get me to bail. I wonder if that's still an issue.
