The admins are very hands off when it comes to World so I personally doubt they’d make that big of a decision unless it’s something important like they’re discussing with the recent big android debate with that community.
the instance owners only real statement on it was just curious why people didn’t think it was a good idea, so I really doubt they came to a decision that quickly.
the big difference is Lemmy and other sites got popular now as a result of people finally realizing “wow the modernized internet is pretty much complete dogshit”
the only thing that’s been basically different is people trying and rather unsuccessfully to create an alternative to the bigger sites. 9/10 most of them have failed, but with Lemmy considering how much and how dedicated the userbase has been so far.
My point was mostly “if Lemmy can be bought out” (which I really doubt) “then the internet is just blatantly fucked and there’s not anywhere to go period.”
Lemmy, which I’m currently using through liftoff seems like the best solution and has a rather dedicated userbase in general. I’m excited to be here but there’s always the worry something could go wrong with it
If the Lemmy admins sides with people like zuck, which they shouldn’t because they’re literal communists I’m going to laugh so hard, internet would pretty much be fucked lol
