A classic. So many questions arise from this simple text+image post:

1. Is this person’s child named really “Strairdrac The Netherwatcher”?
2. Is Strairdrac even human?
3. Why does Strairdrac want to teach crabs how to read?
4. Why is it considered forbidden knowledge?
5. What other knowledge is forbidden?

We will never have all the answers. Still, the questions are themselves a sort of answer.

I really appreciate these posts; this way I don’t need to actually go to Reddit to see what it’s looking like.

I haven’t tried Kbin much at all, but it did seem different than anything I’ve ever used…

Lemmy I just made an account, followed a bunch of communities, and that’s that. IDK, felt very easy. Obviously IDK the average user experience, didn’t feel harder than Reddit though.

Mastodon as well, difference from Twitter was just that on Twitter I knew who to follow because it’s more established, but in terms of usability it felt basically the same…

IDK, maybe I got lucky. But that has been my experience, and when I made my accounts I had no knowledge of the fediverse or anything like that.

What? It wasn’t meant as an insult, I’m sorry it came off that way. I just meant people that aren’t tech savvy or that aren’t chronically online. And what I said is literally that people don’t need any skills!! They just get scared off by terms they don’t understand (fediverse, decentralized, instance…), but that in reality don’t matter at all.

I get this to some extent… On the other hand, none of that matters.

What instance to choose? Doesn’t really matter.
What community to subscribe to? Both! If later you figure out you don’t like one of them, just unsub…

But yeah, I know normies seem unable to just jump in and see how it works. They just read “fediverse” and don’t know what it is so just reject everything that it’s related to because “it’s too complicated”.

This is great, and very honourable, but I would just draw Loss.

CONVENIENCE FEES HAHAHAHA

God what a scam that shit is
