While I understand someone not agreeing with the way some instance or community is managed, I see value in different opinions.

Lemmy is great for exactly this purpose, we can have different instances and are able to be exposed to different ideas.

I can not understand the need of some people to limit their exposure to different ideas.

Every social media has the same problem, reddit is on one side, twitter on the other, facebook is filtering by their own goals.

People here are just a bit different angle. But each instance is a little different, lemmy.world is more reddit like, lemmy.ml is leftist, hexbear is… something too, there are probably some right wing instances. Much more diverse than other networks and I enjoy seeing all those different point of views.

This is current problem in society that we don’t tolerate different opinion.

I always wondered why they haven’t been doing it from the start, seams like it is not as simple as I imagine.

People will take it, there is no other option and G is working hard not to allow another video platform.

Problem is ads they are playing are awful and loud. We will make way to silent them and black them out, it is not hard.

Bigger problem is content they are pushing is getting bad and is pushing creators into burnout. And I don’t want to see videos companies are creating, but want individual contributions.

While title is click bite, they do say right at the beginning:

*Right now, it is pulling through only because of Microsoft’s $10 billion funding *

Pretty hard to miss, and than they go to explain their point, which might be wrong, but still stands. 700k i only one model, there are others and making new ones and running the company. It is easy over 1B a year without making profit. Still not significant since people will pour money into it even after those 10B.
