lol did you get this from whoever posted it an hour earlier? Or did you just both get it from the same place?
Crossposted from them as part of ongoing boycotting efforts against the .ml instance.
Though it doesn't show in this case because they put the image link in the body, and I really hate that, so I fixed it on crosspost lmao
To take stuff off .ml you must be reading it - strange version of "boycotting". I just ignore it.
Since Lemmy doesn't suck down data like corporate social media does simply lurking doesn't contribute to an instance's growth.
And when you crosspost that content elsewhere, with no comments or upvoting on the original, it diminishes that instance's power and influence just a bit and contributes to a more decentralized Lemmy-verse
We should be doing the same with .world, not because of toxic propaganda pushing admins, but just so that content is more decentralized in general. But I'm just 1 person who refuses to automate it, soo I can only do so much lmao
On Lemmy, big comms, user counts and content are an instances influence, the more you have the less others will be willing to defederate from you. Kinda why .ml can get away with so much crap
Good explanation, thanks!
