Send interesting Lemmy links to people you know. That's how they get interested, and check it out. You won't convince many people by extolling the benefits of the Fediverse, you just have to show them that they'll be entertained, and maybe they'll be somewhat more likely to switch if they know it won't enshittify. I'd say you should send links from instances that don't federate with some of the weirder places like Hexbear though, that's likely to turn people off until they realize how the Fediverse works.

One thing that we could use more of that draws people in is posts about relationship issues. Entertaining for almost everyone, and pretty much anyone can create them from their own experience.

Great accelerationist pick, appreciated by both nazis and tankies

I switched from Tuta to Fastmail. Tuta was mostly fine, but being restricted to only their client was really annoying. I can use Fastmail with Thunderbird/FairEmail/etc just fine.

I get what Tuta is trying to do with encrypted email, but IMO they're better off joining up with Fastmail on better specs that allow for the things they want to do, instead of limiting what email clients you can use.

Thanks. The good news is that if I'm right, we both win.

Organizing in person for change and being loud about it. Part of that is helping people direct their anger in the right place by pointing out the problem. It's a lot easier to effect change when you've got a critical mass of people that are pissed off and want the same change.

In a FPTP voting system, one party dicking around and fucking up is equivalent to giving you the other option. It's not fun or cool, but it's true.

Too lazy to make the meme, but you're literally personifying the Principal Skinner meme. "Am I out of touch? No, it is the voters who are wrong."

Hate the game all you want, the DNC still failed at convincing people that Trump was worse than their corporatist bullshit, because people are desperate for change

The answer is simple. It is not easy. The DNC needs to be replaced ground up with people that push for real change. The hard part is pushing out people in positions of power that don't want to give it up because they benefit from the status quo.

To join in the obligatory reminders:
