Definitely a sign the Fediverse has longevity problems

I am careful what I comment so they either very manually singled me out or I got caught on an automated banner for downvotes (I ended up downvoting a lot since there were such frequent bad takes and posts) are my guesses

Lemmyworld, with its ban of pirating communities, petty bans of random users, frequent downtime, CSAM attacks and new registration restrictions... I wonder which lemmy will overtake it with users since it has proven to be unreliable

Lyrics:

https://genius.com/Oliver-anthony-rich-men-north-of-richmond-lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bulls*** pay So I can sit out here and waste my life away Drag back home and drown my troubles away

[Pre-Chorus] It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is

[Chorus] Livin' in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don't think you know, but I know that you do 'Cause your dollar ain't s*** and it's taxed to no end 'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

[Verse 2] I wish politicians would look out for miners And not just minors on an island somewhere Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat And the obese milkin' welfare

[Verse 3] Well, God, if you're five-foot-three and you're three-hundred pounds Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground 'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down

[Pre-Chorus] Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is

[Chorus] Livin' in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don't think you know, but I know that you do 'Cause your dollar ain't s*** and it's taxed to no end 'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

[Outro] I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bulls*** pay
