I’m here because it’s eventually going to be the better alternative.

FOSS by its nature, will keep on improving. And proprietary bloatware, by its nature, will only gonna get worse.

    A corporate run Lemmy server can remove competition by simply choosing not to federate with any other instance.

      But that would be fine, wouldn’t it? Then they wouldn’t show up elsewhere, they would basically be using lemmy as a template to make a standalone website. If they want the general audience, they would have to create a general experience that is better than being connected to all the other servers, and that would be a lot of work.

      But maybe I’ve misunderstood it, because I’m new to all this.
