@pu Reddit is (very unfortunately) still where people spend a lot of time, but I agree that it sucks and people should avoid giving them any more content they can then feed into these dumb AI machines.

I also agree that the “Threadiverse” (e.g. Lemmy/Kbin) has not gained traction / came close to any sort of critical mass but I think it could. We need more people to commit to posting, replying and spending time there. It’s cross-functionality with the growing “Fediverse-of-things” (AP-compatible stuff) gives these tools a lot of extra power imo as anyone on Mastodon or elsewhere could comment on a Lemmy thread, etc…

So maybe there is a better place out there, maybe theres some amazing Discord server that would be best right now to spend your time but for the future, I say we invest in Fediverse-enabled communities and Lemmy/Kbin are great options for that right now.
