Please do, we need more competition. Come on over to Lemmy, the water is nice.

Kohinoor said she had been criticised for creating the movement's group on Facebook, which is owned by American technology conglomerate Meta.

"We have no better alternative," the group's creator said. "This is about getting people together and creating a movement. I think you have to gradually change as the alternatives come."

I hope she’s at least keeping backups of important data herself. Organizing a movement like this on an oligarch’s website - especially one that has gone out of his way to capitulate to Trump - is just about the worst choice possible.

I wish her the best of luck, although I’m concerned about her decision-making skills.

Turns out change has tipping points. Not particularly gradual, at all. And yes, Fedi is the way. Tell ALL your friends!
