It's not the kids, not the lurkers, not the mods... y'all just nice people. Lemmy's got a good vibe going... or at least enough windows that we can close if the vibe gets shit.

I just hope the alt right doesn’t latch on - but w/ this being the Fediverse we can at least use reason & spin them off in their own little corner.. for better or worse. (Better for us & worse for them)

I don’t know what else is the answer though - they either drag us down w/ them or we rise above it & leave them to wallow in their messed up world views.

If this turns into an Odysee then this will be a very sad place built w/ good intentions.

I haven't really looked at Odysee. I feel like I've seen some Linux Youtubers mention that they post videos there too. What's bad about it?
