No, why should I know who he is? How is he relevant to how Lemmy is run? How are my replies relevant to whatever Neil Postman wrote? Can you elaborate?
Well, your efforts clearly did not achieve your desired results, so forking the project, and starting your own Lemmy-alternative seems like the logical next step no?
Again, why do you keep bringing up American authors?
On the Internet, you can search. Instead, you go all "WTF" ranting.
No, it isn't logical at all. People have set up Lemmy instances to 'fork" Reddit, and nobody comes. Why set up one more social media site nobody will use because audiences actually seek out what is popular. You seem to think code is all that matters, that quality actually attracts audiences. I suggest teachers like Neil Postman, they really spell this all out. The audience has to develop self-awareness of their compulsive media behaviors. Huxley was far more right than Orwell.
You're the one that brought it up, you can't even be bothered to explain why?
If your fork maintains the ActivityPub protocol, what's the issue? Again you keep bringing up more authors without explaining your reasons for doing so. Do you lack the capability to think for yourself, so you have to idolize authors that have long since passed?
Your entire response seems like "fork it", without anything in advance of that.
Study the project leaders of lemmy, which I have done for hundreds of hours now. Analyze and learn, not JUMP TO "fork it".
Criticize with critical thinking what they are doing. And contribute. Which I have also done. They clearly need to stop letting their anxeity of PostgreSQL be central to the project. There are tutorials on YouTube for example that can be shared. Or Lemmy communities.
It's odd, do you go around telling everyone who criticizes Elon Musk to "fork it" about Twitter instead of actual;y sharing discussion about the problems. You seem to show cult-like loyalty to Lemmy and intend to run-off factual criticism. I've seen people behave that way towards Elon Musk too.
