so true :) I was explaining my missus about the blackout and she thought that meant I will have more time(Reddit is top of my screen time) that I can use to do other things, little did she know that I’m going to be wasting it on Lemmy lol.
Getting of crack by switching to cocaine
Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.
in fact, my excitement about lemmy has left me with even less time, the irony
Haha "Rexxit" is amazing!
Rexxit!!! Dig the name. It’s the era of lemmingration!
Kinda getting ahead of myself here but if this place comes under attack (whether that's in the form of a bot invasion, denial of service, etc.), we could call it the siege of Lemmingrad.
It's all fun and games until the bot army arrives. They shall not pass!
Omg! I wish to participate on the front lines of this epic battle! I will be there!
Feels fresh and cozy, I like it, too :)
Glad to see Lemmy finally taking off. I'm honestly scared the Reddit admins will buckle. This is where everyone should be. We can make this place as great as Reddit and it will be even better due to the decentralized nature of the network.
I have been wanting a nice place on the internet with lots of users but still untouched by big companies. Lemmy came to answer my wish (:
It's taken me a bit to get used to and get it setup, but I'm liking it more and more, the longer I'm on it :)
This is actually a genius idea on how to continue the protests after the 14th. Even if the blackout won't last longer content creators should post content increasingly elswhere or additionally to reddit somewhere else and increase the viability of a replacement.
Funny enough, you're one of the content creators by commenting! The comments and discussions were my favorite part of reddit and we're bringing the comments with us over here to Lemmy!
Can we set up some Reddit bots that just comment on every post with a link to a Lemmy thread? Haha
It would mean more users in here so is a fantastic idea, too bad I don't know how to create bots.
It's nice so far :)
Lemmy is one of the few platforms I actually want to be active on
LMAO reddit is a GREAT name for it.
Damn autocorrect
Autocorrect is in the pockets of big reddit
Honestly, Lemmy has seemed really nice so far.
Also Rexxit💀
I proped up a number of smaller subs from my RSS feeds. Happy to be here. :) I felt a stir in the wind a few months ago and found this place and started to set up shop. I deleted ten years of content during the AMA. I thought I'd be more sad but I felt great.
I've had a Reddit account for over 11 years and this feels like when i first found Reddit. It has that nice, friendly vibe.
Same here, I'm liking it here so far
Rexxit is awesome, gone call it like that from now on.
@Veritrax went for Mastodon myself but guess that's what's great about this. Thanks Reddit for introducing me to the Fediverse!
Same. I've seen other people say it, but this system of distributed, federated social networks feels like the real next generation internet. It reminds me of old school BBS and the irc servers I used to hang out on. It's definitely a better solution than letting one company run everything.
I nuked my accounts at reddit just before the strike as a final move out of frustration. It was tough not knowing what the next day was going to look like. The people and the communities mean the world to me no matter the size and I am forever grateful of the hard work that was put in over there. I look forward to watching things grow over here and hope the initial learning curve is not too challenging for everyone and that it inspires more development than reddit ever did.
I'm picking it up bit by bit. Honestly I think a lot of my issues were getting used to the Jerboa app. A little more UI refinement and a few qol features and I'll never look back
I don't even want to go back honestly
Does Lemmy have awards? Because this might have been my first one.
To be honest I will prefer Lemmy to not have awards.
@Veritrax Anything that wakes people up to neoliberalism eating everything of value.
