You realize you’re shaming people on Lemmy, the people who clearly already support a more privacy centric and less profit-driven approach to social media.
We don’t live in a Utopia where all 7 billion people have already followed suit, and shaming won’t help. Providing a welcoming community will.
Sorry but this is wildly oversimplified. I walk and take an e-scooter almost exclusively and couldn’t possibly hope to gather all the information about my city happenings.
Proposed plans by my councillors are often not posted on posters or billboard on my street, and the ones that are may not give me sufficient detail.
And aside from politics, cafe’s a 60min+ walk away are never going to be advertising their events on my street lol.
Also yes of course far more people should go to council meeting in-person, but often work or other responsibilities can get in the way.
