So much potential! All that has to happen, in my opinion, there needs to be 3 instances( at minimum) that will promise to never defederate anything! And I mean keep corporate meta bs included and as long as it's not illegal ( looking at you, r/jailbait) it should be included. This platform will take off!!!
Let everyone have an opinion, a voice. Even if it's offensive. There should be a place for racism, fat phobia and discourse of any kind. And then we can have a place for everything else in between. As long as we have that yin and yang on the Internet lemmy will take off! like nothing else in the world because if you don't want to see something just don't join that community or that a federation.
A truly open source and free place curated just for you based on what you want, what you desire and what you would like to learn, that, that's what this place is all about!
It's the pipe dreams that the internet should have always been.
That's just my 2ยข. Let everyone have a place and let it be free!
What I truly mean is. If we meet this be a place for everything good and everything undesirable. It will flourish.
There's a reason we romanticize the wild wild west. None of us truly want any laws or anyone to tell us what to do. Give us a place to be ourselves whether that's acceptable or not.
