Yes... We'll just leave our apartments on the west side of the US, drive for 3+ days to the White House on the east coast with our $300 paychecks and while we're gone we'll lose our apartments & livelihoods because we aren't working our 8+ hour day shifts making minimum wage. Then after we're done protesting and burning shit we'll go home to our now homeless family.
That is the reality a lot of us are living in. A good amount of Americans can't rise up because they have a family that would be on the street after 1 missed paycheck.
We're too poor and too far away from the capitol. It would take days for me to drive to Washington D.C. and if I miss that much work I'll lose my home and other things. Then nothing will change and I'll be homeless for a while :(
Yes. Lemmy is not friendly for the "average" user. We could come up with a list of severs with pros and cons to them and then people would feel more comfortable. I came here the moment reddit killed the API and I was so confused. Federated anything meant nothing to me and I discovered lemmy.world so that's just what I joined. LOL I still don't know the difference between servers.
