I see how you feel with your Peertube song.
Of course, Lemmy is an amazing FOSS tool, just sad many people (if so) are a bit toxic... Of course, I was blamed in the past as troll, bot, pro-putin, pro-china, pro-european, pro-american... and few actually get involved in a insightful conversation. The way i see it, Lemmy (or any of these mediums) are just entertainment and our work should be in the real world, with your neighbors and physical communities.
haha, thanks! Yeah, I was feeling creative that day. I figured, "Hey, I should make a Lemmy song!" You reminded me of it, so I posted it to a nerdcore comm just now. lol
I'm with ya. I LOVE the decentralized nature and concept of Lemmy. Just wish some of the more extreme rhetoric would die down. Because this would make a great creative space. People should def not take it quite so seriously and spend more time outside.
But as an aside, I just had a talk with one of the admins for my instance, and it was a great convo and they are supported of creatives here. So right now, feeling good.
