Im very excited for Lemmy. It seems a bit rough around the edges, but I'm very hopeful for it. That being said...
Please stop talking about reddit. If you want this to be the next reddit, I beg of you to stop mentioning it. Otherwise all this placewill be is a temporary hold over until we all just fall back on what we know cause we keep hammering in the name into our brain over and over again. I think the same sort of thing happened with the original "black out" of Twitter but we all came back to it because we kept thinking of Twitter in regards to whatever new site we tried. If you want Lemmy to succeed, let Lemmy be Lemmy
Fuck your dick you shitty pissbanana. Let people talk about things that are going on and let the conversations develop naturally. If you really want to control what people can and can’t talk about go back to Reddit and start your own sub where you can aggressively moderate until you’re happy with your finely cultivated echo chamber.
Being super into cheese dynamics is a very french trait. You should also vandalize a Holocaust memorial and light a police officer on fire to complete the look.
man there is no need to be so insulting, maybe a snarky quip woulda been fine, but this is so far past the line, its not cool at all to be that rude to a guy posing a question, participating
Participating being a key word here. I've been trying to get conversations going on other things going and so I do know what this guy means - I also know it probably will just take a matter of time for things to settle down.
But that's the insulting kind of talk I haven't seen on here much, compared to Reddit
The place was almost a ghost town compared to today. Plenty of posts with zero replies, some with a half-dozen on a good day.
Today I’m seeing tons of posts with over a hundred replies and a bunch of new magazines. Yeah, there’s gonna be some bitterness about reddit, but this place is taking off nicely so far.
