The TikTok ban and Donald Trump's rise to power show how fragile our social media accounts are. We must normalize and invest in decentralized social media.

        I think the join-lemmy.org link was fine, it seemed to get deleted when you edited in links to specific lemmy instances?

          Didn’t say but I’m pretty sure it’s because I edited to add lemmy specific information. In particular I mentioned the apps

              Welcome.

              The biggest thing you have to learn is that everything defaults to “active” instead of “hot.” If it seems stale after setting the primary to “hot” in your settings, choose “top 6 hours” and “top 12 hours” to see more content. It’s not as addicting so it takes a little time to settle in to the calmness, but it’s great after you get used to it.
