I'm really liking Lemmy.world. It has the chaos and energy I want. Focus is slowly appearing in particular communities.

And the flood! IDC about reddit, and I'm not cheerleading, not gonna estimate the scale of, its demise. But very many reddit folk are showing up. That's the chaos.

Poor young folk. They seem to worry how anyone will make money, or become big enough, all the noise gleaned from Industry News for the last 20 years. But slowly at least some are cluing in.

The good thing about the cluelessness (largely excusable unless it persists) is that it works in spite of it. And clued in to the workings, it will work better.
