Just FYI, Tildes is run by one (1) dude with a full time job and a family. From what I read, the guy refers to himself as the God of Tildes or something to that effect which I think tells you everything you need to know about how it's managed.
Don't expect it to ever reach the popularity or capacity of Lemmy or Reddit.

Just curious, do you have a link to him referencing himself that way?
-
People are usually referring to the Official Docs.
It has been stealth edited since (with the "last updated" at the top still saying 2019), but the Wayback Machine has the "creator/founder/god" wording in the the Tildes Offical Docs as of its 2nd June snapshot
He now refers to himself as "site admin Deimos" rather than "creator/founder/god Deimos".

Thanks. Kinda lame, yeah, but not that damning, IMO. Hard to make a proper judgment on that bit alone. Could have been him just having a laugh. I'd rather judge him more by how he runs the site which seems pretty even-handed so far.

LOL its literally Deimos (God)

I read that this was stated entirely as a joke, and I read that 2 months ago in the middle of people looking for pathetic excuses to not stop using reddit.
I thought Lemmy would have stopped propagating it without a source.

You must not be familiar with people then.

Isn't Tildes the site responsible for the creation of Beehaw? As in a bunch of users had a disagreement with the admin and decided they would all leave Tildes and start their own place (with blackjack and hookers), eventually settling on Lemmy for the platform?

Their goal is not to be a Reddit alternative or to replace the fediverse. Maybe in the long run it will have a larger user base, but for now they want to remain on the smaller size. Which is fine, there is room for multiple websites. It’s a good thing everyone isn’t located in one source. Things can be across lemmy, mastodon, Kbin, tildes, squabbles, etc.
-
Being part of the fediverse is important to ever be able to challenge mega corporate social sites like Reddit, Twitter
-
-
Is it even part of the Fediverse?
-
It's not a federated platform.
-
The only federated Reddit alternatives are Lemmy and Kbin as far as I know. Would be cool if more implemented ActivityPub

There are some people commenting they got banned for not agreeing with admin on harmless stuff. I wasn’t sure if he was petty but since he refers to himself as god I guess he is petty.
