Doesn’t communism do the same? In fact why the fuck do the crazy psychos rise to the top seemingly everywhere? Is this one of those “nice guys finish last” kinda deals or some phenomenon I’ve never heard of?

This is so cool, I’m so uninformed about Plex. I just heard about it on r/Piracy days before the Reddit shutdown. I’m getting ready to sit down and learn how to do all that, the hardware will baffle me I’m sure.
Yeah that’s crazy, I was furious when they fired Victoria back in the day. It’s nice to see that Alexis Ohanian is the one who deserves the blame for that massive fuckup. Man that gives me a pang of nostalgia for the old days of reddit though. Interesting that the Wiki article points to Obama’s presidency and the 08 financial collapse as a “glass cliff” event.
That’s a thought exercise I first explored when I was tripping on LSD one time. Once you accept that colors could look entirely different, what’s to stop us from imagining that the entire makeup of our perception is adjusted to the individual, but the chaos of the universe keeps all of our unique perceptions in enough alignment that we can interact seamlessly with one another. The concept of an “alien green man” could be what someone actually sees the whole human species as, and the words “alien green man” just fit a different description to that individual, so when refrenced, that person envisions an alien being as foreign as the “alien green man” is to us, and can communicate with others on that concept.
Perception defines your experience
Which is why different animals perceive color in different ways. I’d have to look for it but I think it’s tigers that see green in a totally different way than people do.
Absolutely, I’m way more actively engaged on Lemmy than I was in the recent past on Reddit. I feel like the community isn’t too flooded yet, and conversation can be more easily seen. I’m very excited for the future here.
Hard to tell if he’s winning or losing. If he’s being incentivized to destroy the integrity of a mainstream information-sharing platform, he’s done well. If he in any way wanted to run the company, he’s done laughably bad. I guess time will tell
