Rather than jump to “trauma” here (and believe me, I say this as a person with PTSD), could you elaborate on what you mean by “fear”?
Artist, musician, and professional dumbass
Have a turtle for your troubles my good fellow 🐢

Lol I’m doing okay dw. Just makes these kinds of posts funny to me.
Lol I was the disowned kid tbh
Lmao whoops sorry
Lol I didn’t wanna make it too dark or rain on people’s parades but when your own mother has literally disowned you repeatedly and threatened to sue because you’re telling people what she did to you as a kid and it’s hurting her reputation stuff like this becomes funny in a kinda dark way
You are not replaceable for your family
Wanna bet?
They like having no competition, by being friendly at first, then crushing us when we let them access our userbase. Defederate, with no second thoughts. If the Meta users want to experience the fediverse, nothing is stopping them from making a Lemmy account on any instance.
The content is facebook-oriented content. Idk if it would even really be the kind of audience that most of the fediverse would be able to sustain.
As it is, reddit was a concern for many people. Facebook? Not a chance.
Besides, large scale defederation discourages Meta from trying to weasel their way into everything like that. Don’t encourage them. They want you excited, but overlooking the massive issues.
Adjusting slowly. I feel about as isolated with a sense of pseudo-connection that dies off the moment I stop typing my reply here as I did on reddit, if anything less content here with a less aggressive algorithm keeps me from getting into scrolling loops and lets me actually do shit with my day.
Soup, salad, or sandwich. In that order.
