Nothing agains this place, but it is VERY cumbersome to get going. Squabbles seems super responsive and intuitive. I’ll be using both!
I liked it briefly when I logged in but as someone on reddit pointed out, the owner encouraged others to astroturf bringing new users to the site which feels kinda icky given the way other users have also bashed lemmy alongside it.
Is it federated?
If not, it’s not useful.
100% I’m done investing my time in closed services controlled by capital
It doean’t even say who runs the site on the “about” page. The privacy policy also seems lacking. Not sure what to think of it yet.
That also doesn’t work at all without javascript, not even showing anything, is off-puttingI use it sometimes. Apart from the non-federated aspect, there is a cultish mentality in some users there, which I find very annoying.
I think it’s somewhat interesting. I don’t like how the main developer was spamming Reddit with links to it all week then pretending like he didn’t on Squabbles.
Also, the vibe of a social network named after petty and trivial quarrels seems to be not for me.
