  • “A secret postmortem of Harris’s performance by the DNC found that her major issue with voters stemmed from Biden’s poor handling of Israel’s massacre in Gaza and her own refusal to break with him on it, a policy choice that fundamentally soured support from progressives and young voters.”

    This statement and seeing who posted it disregards the entire article. This is an attempt to undermine a solid democratic candidate to help the right win in 2028 nothing more.















  • Its hard to break into peoples minds with no advertising budget.We can’t tell people on reddit about Lemmy because reddit bans your account.

    Lemmy got a ton of traffic after the api black out and it did an incredible Job at retaining a lot of those users. There were 200k active users and Lemmy was much more unstable at the time. Active users did fall off as expected but 50k stayed for 2 years. Thats great in my opinion. If we had another migration wave I reckon the retention would be even higher.

    For someone to switch from reddit to Lemmy three things need to happen

    1. They need to know it exists

    2. They need to dislike reddit or centralised corporate controlled social media on an ideological level.

    3. They need something disruptive to happen. Either a ban or a change they dont like.
