Right? I agree with this #lemming. They don’t care about you, just profit. This is the reason I prefer open platforms like @Mastodon @lemmy and @peertube . They at least care for user privacy and freedom, big tech just doesn’t give any shits. “Profit all the way” they say.

@RobotToaster i think it’s because I used handles and hashtags. I think it’s the cheat code for getting traction on the #Fediverse. I’m also used to using hashtags because being on central stuff like Twitter Facebook etc, it’s kind of a common thing I do when wanting traction on a post lol.

I'm still yet to understand how that federation between Lemmy and Mastodon works because I don't seem able to follow stuff from Mastodon on Lemmy and comment...

It's one-way. Mastodon users can post in lemmy communities and follow lemmy communities/users, but there's no way to view mastodon posts from lemmy (unless they're posted to a lemmy community)

And that was when I learnt the fediverse wasn't as good as everyone says. Thank :)
