No one here is important or official. There are no video game community managers or anything like that here. Lemmy is not used for interacting with anyone other than fellow idle nerds.
This is how Reddit was before it exploded in popularity and companies and celebrities started taking it seriously. I don’t know if Lemmy will ever get to that point, especially seeing how much abuse people will endure before they change platforms.
Other important point: we already have homeservers that federate with shitholes like threads or hybrids like bluesky. Lemmy is just one way of displaying AP protocol content. From that perspective it is basically ungovernable, which is cool if you ask me. ;)

Eh, on Lemmy, users can really easily switch to a home instance that isn’t doing that, so it’s a little more self-correcting.
