    Maybe, but I think it really boils down to convenience and ease of use. People will stick around until the pain of moving to a new platform is less than the pain of staying there.

      I’m privileged enough and it doesn’t negatively affect me personally, so why should I care

      Yes. I agree. Lol.

      Another one for you. Basically, it’s gas prices for the individualists:

        I think you’re preaching to the choir though. Most people on Lemmy aren’t here because its got the best memes OE anything. It just sucks when it seems like almost everyone in your life shrugs at doing the right thing because it is inconvenient.

          Yeah, I agree. Like I said with the first one though, I think it’s relevant to those people who choose not to support their friends, not so much us here.

          “It’s one more app” was the answer I got with signal. “I don’t want one more app.” Not an hour later we talked about how they had just downloaded like 4 different airline apps. But one app for me was too much?

        Literally this whenever I mention what Discord has been caught with.

        My friend reached out to some people I used to know on Discord now that it’s AI and age verification is finally fully active, and the response he got was “I know, but, I didn’t notice any change”.
