First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

    On one hand, I can name sites that, in 2023, either screwed over their user base, or just went under.

    • Teknik (obscure file host/git repo host)
    • Enjin (forum host for clans/everyone and their dogs’ minecraft servers, rebranded to peddle NFTs)
    • Imgur (currently scrubbing their servers of anonymous uploads/nsfw content)
    • Discord (changing their username system to a bad one)
    • Reddit (charging exorbitant prices for their api; $20m per year for Apollo’s developer)

    I have been considering a domain name to access hypothetical home servers as of late, just so I don’t have to worry about shit like this.
