Yes, absolutely. If people aren’t willing to be inconvenienced by the protest against Reddit, then Reddit will end up winning, which sends a horrible message to them that they can do whatever they want and we’ll eat it.

Decentralization is not only the future, I fear it’s our only hope of maintaining an internet that is truly free as opposed to one built solely for data collection and corporate profit.

….and the fact that you’re even showing appreciation is a huge step in the right direction.

Early adoption of new tech usually requires a couple things from users, in my experience. Patience, and a willingness to contribute in whatever way you can. If Kbin, Lemmy et al can get an influx of users that bring at least one of these two things, we’ll go far.

That, and @ernest will need some kind of support from many of us.
