Yeah, I’m just posting more news in the community since the Florida lemmy doesn’t get enough news articles

No prob, I’m thinking about sharing more news articles since it seems like the community is a little lacking in the department. Figured I’d do my part to fix that

I’m all for free speech, but we need to instate stricter rules and regulations for the press. Before Reagan came around, the press was federally funded, now look at the hellscape he has created

Wikipedia is able to pull that off because wikipedia is a digital encyclopedia, not a social forum to add comments to or respond at a massive scale like lemmy is or reddit was. A majority of services either get their revenue from ads, or they start off not doing that but eventually have to cave in and let ads in.

I think ads can be annoying sometimes, but if they’re done in a similar way reddit did them before their downfall, then it would be tolerable and at least give the lemmy.world admins enough money to cover server running costs

yes

I feel bad for the lemmy.world admins that have to keep up with the software needed and costs accrued to handle the world knocking on their doorstep. I hope advertisers hit them up soon so their bills become easier to pay. While advertising was annoying on reddit, I’m more than willing to put up with it on this instance of lemmy, the admins have earned it.

I’ve become a more avid lurker compared to a infrequent lurker on reddit

The Porndex says otherwise

The Porndex?

The Porndex?

That’s until you factor in that the majority of that 0.6% and 0.2% were the people running their site for free, disabled people, or both.
