If people weren’t as stupid, they’d already be ignoring fox news.

The solution to misinformation isn’t censorship, it’s for people to be better educated. Are we supposed to ban every conspiracy theory website? If so, who gets to decide what is the truth and what is “misinformation”? The same type of government organization that is now banning books in florida? No thanks.

Meh, decentralized youtube alternatives have practically nothing interesting.

Social media and forums, I can see them getting replaced. Social media and forums are about the people, powered by discussion amongst peers. Decentralized Social platforms will thrive if there’s enough people. A video platform? Videos take a lot more effort and only a small percentage of users are really “content creators”. These content creators typically want to get paid for so much effort they put in to the videos, so it’s really unlikely a decentralized platform can provide adequate compensation. Youtube ain’t going away anytime soon whether you like it or not.

TLDR; Video Platforms =/= Social medias and Forums.

Lemmy is nostalgic? Lemmy is novelty for me. Looks and feels so modern. Simplistic, yet modern. Am I weird?
