It got cloudy
First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, "Lemmy" users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.
It's to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/
They do not ask for a phone number.
It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux. But honestly these days the times where you'll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).
Unless he joins fedia.io you don't really get a say in what he does... kind of the entire point behind decentralization....

The growth of the network*
There are many platforms in the Fediverse. The fact that the network can survive the collapse of one platform is a strength of decentralization. The Lemmy/mbin/piefed universe can only ever be exactly as big as we, the users, want it to be.
Greetings fellow /u/kirk, nice bike!
Tinder started as a "hook-up" app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.
You are correct and I don't mean to shame but it has been their goal for 7 years now since the redesign in 2018.
Bazzite is a custom image of Kinoite, but I'm not surprised it's taking off, it's great.

While Lemmy is still young we should establish a culture of politely, yet firmly ridiculing the weight of the mothers of users who don't de-clickbait headlines.
We salute you, Loretta.
MASH is a very good show, it's aged (a little too) well and the jokes still land to this day. Highly recommended.
No opinion is so important that it needs to post it to Reddit imo
A recent study has found that the richest 10 percent of the world population are responsible for two-thirds of observable climate warming
"The problem I've found is that it's easy enough to create a Reddit clone using Lemmy, but getting people to actually use it is the issue."
A good thread to mention Lemmy in - a Daily Show segment about social media companies, most of the commenters don't seem to realize that nonprofit social media exists!
