    Yeah but there a few basic facts even you need to acknowledge:

    1. The Switch boycott doesn’t exist outside the internet, people irl simply dont care and are willing to pay up
    2. Lemmy is a relatively niche platform, we think we’re big but thats objectively untrue.
    3. The vast majority of people will never switch away from centralized services
    4. The vast majority of people dont know about Linux and if they do than they dont care
    5. Self hosting is significantly smaller even among tech nerds
    6. The vast majority of people dont care about privacy
    7. The vast majority of people dont care about game preservation

    So when this platform is the exact opposite it makes it look like a circlejerk or at least an echo chamber

      That’s saying the same thing as the first person, just because it’s a small group right now doesn’t mean it’s not worth spreading the information and sentiment, I for one talk to people in real life about my issues and why I won’t financially support Nintendo, do you?

        The only Nintendo console I have is my Wii, thats about it and I dont personally plan on getting another one. Its less a boycott and more I lost intrest after my 3DS broke.
