Let them do what they want. The communities you wanna check out will be available elsewhere with time.

What bothers me about this is that the administrators at sh.itjust.works, beehaw.org, and lemmy.world are all being adults about this.

While this Reddit-like stampede is already trying to create an us-vs-them environment.

It's fine. The adults are adulting. Maybe a bit of Reddit deprogramming is all that is needed for people to become more reasonable.

The us vs them mentality is such a default human reaction, one that you have to actively battle in yourself.

I like the whole idea of federation and I think the more we use the platform the better and more tailored our experiences will be.

It's a ground up, organic process, and we're still figuring it out. I think things will naturally develop, because that is how this system is set up.

fr, I just failed that battle not that long ago lol.

I think between removing Reddit from my habits and the positive engagement here I'll be ripe yet!

Yea I really like it here. I am suspicious of over positivity, but this feels good. So I'm rolling with it.

It is really interesting watching a new community bloom.
