For years, the internet has been shrinking. Not in size, not in data, but in ownership. A vast, decentralized network of personal blogs, forums, and independent communities has been corralled into a handful of paved prison yards controlled by a few massive corporations. Every post, every “friend,” every creative work—

        @saplacat

        Mastodon v4.3.4, Firefox 136.0 (64-bit) browser tab on Ubuntu desktop

        This is so typical of #Lemmy posts I’ve already filtered them out

        Why should I click through on something I won’t be able to read?

          Not sure what you’re talking about, never experienced that in Lemmy links. I’ll check this one later when I’m on PC

            It does exactly the same thing when I click through on your profile link from Mastodon and click the top-most link under your profile

            Y’all got sold a bill of goods and seem to be stuck in your own little Walled Garden

              Which link exactly are you trying to open? I think this is on your side but it’s hard to make out what you’re actually trying or which links you are referring to.

                This is exactly my point

                I’m clicking on the links you’re posting as they appear on Mastodon

                I’m on Mastodon v4.3.4 which is the latest version

                Why do I have to be logged in to some Lemmy instance to get Lemmy posts to operate with any kind of sanity?

                I don’t
