Serious question for you all. I too wish to see Linux use increase. I also want to see corporate social media die. I am thinking of requiring my students to create Lemmy accounts for a Lemmy group i create.
Do you think this might move folks away from essy corporate os and social media? How do You see it giving wrong?
I like the idea, but a lot of people resent being made to create accounts on random services. We know that Lemmy is good because we’re here, but it might put them off the idea.
Depending on the age of your students, you might have to be careful about the fact that NSFW content is freely available here, and check the terms of your instance to see if they’re allowed to make accounts in the first place e.g. on most social media and forums you have to be 13 or over.

These are college students. I’ll try to make the assignment relevant and fun.
Awesome, good luck 🙂
I would rather say that help questions can be posted there. That way its not forving anyone to do anything
