Lemmy is the best social media

Wtf. Why didn't you mention the cringe lord emperor striker?!

Edit: using my mod powers to get attention.

Me as an instance admin sitting here reading about how Lemmy doesn't have trolls and Russian bots, while I'm in a chat with other instance admins and mods where we need to actively coordinate to fight the trolls and Russian bots 😐

Well except for the entire population of Hexbear and the 'Grad...

Just need to swap SatansMaggotyCumFart with Jimmydoreisalefty.

@[email protected] is simply irreverent; not a troll.

Hard disagree. I'm already spending less time here because the Kremlin and CCP propaganda ruins the experience for me. I don't even consider recommending it to people I know for the same reason.

Have we forgotten that we also have Margot Robbie?

Even without any karma system, interacting with the users here is a breath of fresh air. Lemmy has the least shills and bots compared to the poison in most other platforms. It's currently Lemmy's best asset and where it stands out from all existing social media imo, and I hope it remains this way.

You forgot that lemmy.ml, lemmygrad, & hexbear exist.

The tragic thing, though, is that if lemmy ever "takes off", there's nothing about it that will make it any more resistant to bots and trolls.

It's kinda like back when Macs had no viruses, because nobody bothered.

I’d estimate blocking ozma has reduced the amount of “Trump and the GOP may be attempting to install a fascist dictatorship but Biden’s old” nonsense in my feed by 95%.

One thing that I love about Lemmy is how there are people that I always recognise. And you are one of them!

Lemmy is an echo chamber.

As a Russian bot, I'm deeply offended

i haven't gotten into a single fight with a mod in nine months! it's wild

Yes fellow humans I am also a human and enjoy human activities such as consuming nutrient rich bread products and performing my nightly ritual of scraping detritus from my molars. There are no bots on Lemmy, Just fellow human(s).

I see a lot by "the Picard maneuver" or something like that. I can't remember if I like their posts, but there's a lot.

This place is a shit hole. But it’s MY shit hole.

Very good +1000 social credit, OP

wait, you guys read usernames?

SMCF is one of the comfort usernames that I've seen around ever since joining Lemmy

Which one is the bot and which is the troll?

We need rogersimon. I miss his long stories that always ended with his dad beating him with a set of jumper cables.

Thank you @[email protected] for making this site a better place o7

You give me bender vibes

Downpunxx has been banned from enough places for you guys to forget about him, but kbin refugees will never forget.

@[email protected] is a fucking sage, fight me.

It's an egregious error to not have The Picard Manuever as our Supreme Ruler

Yeah idk. There is getting to be a lot of gonewild content too.

I'll start posting more content in a few days. I've been traveling and working a lot. But I've also been playing project zomboid on single player so we'll see if I follow through with my promise.

i seeked lemmy world out, so glad to be here. what finally made me NEED to get away from R****t was the manufactured outrage, clickbait to an incredible degree. people purposely putting up content that reinforces the status quo by encouraging people to get mad about situations that challenge the status quo.

also ridiculously stupid questions, way too many people posting photos of shit and asking "whats wrong here" like come on what the fuck. i'm so sick of it.

Lemmy is an improvement on Reddit, but imo not by much. There really is no innovation on the fundamental concept of subreddits/communities. The issue with Lemmy is that I've come across so many promising communities that quickly die off after the initial spurt of activity. I wonder if there is a better organic way to grow the "online discussion" from some form of general cespool, that can segementize only later when those needed segments (communities) emerge naturally.

Another social media claims it's the better than everything else while it's clearly not for the nth time. Why am I not surprised

Yay not relevant enough to spam/ AstroTurf!

The rarity of trolls is nice. The near absence of advertising accounts is immeasurably gratifying. Valuing both privacy and Linux is…

There's a lot of other shit but it seems that it's organically sorting itself out over time.

@Amoxtli coming up fast in the rankings.....

May I enter the chat?

The latter username reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo4XXm8OUP4

Всмысле блядь нет русских ботов? Я что для вас, шутка?

They got called out.

Hey! Hey! I'm over here! Do I need to up my cringe and troll game???

Given how the libs here so readily resort to the unfalsifiable, ad hominem conspiracy theory of accusing anyone who disagrees with them of being a Russian bot, it's wild to think that there are places they see as even more filled with Russian bots.

good job feeding the trolls OP and everyone @ing them. definitely won’t make them feel vindicated in their presence here. definitely not 🙄

Good job Ozma when the libs resort to ad-hominems you know you're putting in work.

Lemmy became so much better when I blocked pugjesus and their sockpuppet
