You’re not wrong with the choices available, you just not fully considering the inertia factor to change, or to leave their old friends behind, especially if they do not move as well.
Then that’s a personality issue they need to resolve, or else they’ll be abused and exploited throughout their lives. And that’s 100% their responsibility as adults regardless of their issues or what they’re going through.
Two: Instead of demanding we change the way we feel about them, how about instead you either hold them accountable for their inaction, which is the only thing that will ultimately help them, or let them do what they’ll do and move on, respecting the choice they made as human beings?
Everyone on the Internet has the capability to move to another website. They’re adults, not invalids, and I daresay you need to stop talking about compassion when you clearly have no clue of what respect is.
Yeah but we fit in here because the communities that already exist suit us, half of all is Linux memes and most the rest is tech news - pretty much what my Reddit was, most people won’t have that
It’s growing and developing so I think we’ll keep bleeding off Reddit users and establishing a broader community
Sometimes it’s just a desperation for social contact, or an inflexibility to handle change (the inertia factor)
But they can come to Lemmy or Mastodon for that. They’re not beholden to corporations but they refuse to leave.
They’re like domestic violence victims. Why don’t they just leave?
Because there are nowhere near enough cats on lemmy. No. Where. Near.
Gimme them beans and whiskeys!
I thought there already were animal subs on here.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]

You mean the very same factors we easily dealt with when we came here?
Nah, that’s all on them at this point, and any suffering they go through is suffering they bring upon themselves.
Again, not everyone is the same. Where one person may find easy to do another person may find nearly impossible to do.
Life is not digital, it’s analog.

Nobody said it wasn’t, just explaining why they may not make the move.
You could have some compassion for them though, instead of quoting the “sucks to be you, the rules are the rules” mindset.
Not everyone is as capable as everyone else, and we should all strive for the win-win scenarios, makes Humanity a nicer place to live in.
One, motte and bailey.

Giving advice and demanding something is two very different things.
If you want to be argumentative just for argumentative sake, just say so and I’ll leave the conversation.
Tech wise, sure. Socially/emotionally, some yes, some no. Which is the basic point I keep trying to make, and you keep ignoring.
