What are we going to do about it?

Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

You should be using Lemmy instead of Reddit. It's defederated, and it's spread out over 600 Instances in many different countries. This way, one rich egomaniac can't ruin it for everyone else.

defederated

do you mean federated? Defederation is when a server blocks another.

Yeah, probably just a typo.

This is the way. Democratize technology or be ruled by those who'd control it.

I think in that regard, Lemmy is a forum software just like vBulletin or Discourse is. However, I would really like to see a flat forum with federation.
