They’ve got astroturfers in every thread on the big subs that are basically FUDing the shit out of everything that isn’t Reddit. Oh Lemmy too hard, oh Lemmy too complicated, Oh Lemmy require email on signup. They have so many shills now that they had to actually start handing out six month old accounts. It’s hilarious to see.
I think it’s what we need to further push the envelope further. We’re not using the full capability of our hardware that we have today by even a longshot. There’s too much fucking overhead everywhere. And I say that as an artist who fucking LOATHES the shitty rendered music paradigm over the modular approach that we used to have. We see it everywhere though, wastefulness in RAM usage, no damn compression in anything natively, no thought on what data structures would result in the lowest footprint on the harddrive, no actual concern for using higher level langugaes over lower ones.
