Ah, for me news is as much a social network as reddit/lemmy is.
People congregate in such communities mainly by common interest, not personal relationship between each other.
Welcome to our society every thing is just by common interest or self interest we doesn't really care about each other at all we just pretend to care about the poor and minorities but nothing more. Fuck them all.
I miss the cock.li mailing list as we used to exchange some words
Off-topic: I tried to register on Cock.li's email service few times in the past, but it never worked (RoundCube just gave me invalid login error every time); not sure why. In the end, I gave up, and deleted all of my accounts from there.
No RoundCube my friend just install a client. Are you reading this from the webmail at tilde? If yes, why not from Thunderbird? Like you can even read your news/nntp or use IRC and if not mistakenly XMPP/Jabber all in one place Matrix as well. I never used a webmail so no problems at all just mutt, thunderbird and k-9 mail client
The mailing list of cock.li is up again and they are very active on that shit. You can sign up without a cock.li account just mail mailman-join@lists.cock.li and that is all folks
