Lol I literally just thought to myself before scrolling to your post "I think I've seen 25 communist themed posts in an hour"
my other thoughts "wtf is 196?" And "Rule?!" Guess I missed the memo.
politic it up people, I personally dgaf. In the end, though: generally speaking, glorifying shitty people is glorifying shitty people, imo.
196 is some meme sub from reddit, the rule is you gotta post a meme or some shit like that.
Ahh thanks! I keep seeing it along with like a picture of Castro or smth so I was confused lol. I think that's just the thumbnail for one of the servers lmao
Yeah 196 has been a thing for years, reddit just hushed them and other disproportionately active subs down with their algorithms to stop them taking over all, which is fair enough really as it's good to have a mix of subs as long as there's still a chance for each to show
Thanks for the info. Very interesting. I only started using reddit regularly like a yr ago so lot of this stuff over my head.

Look, it is a really nice custom flashlight
Yeah we need a dark mode
I'm using the Jerboa app which has a dark mode. It's a good experience so far.

Sucks that so much of Lemmy is run by tankies
I'm hanging around because it's the most stable alternative right now, but once it matures a bit and gets an app, I'll likely move over to kbin instead.
At least lemmy.world seems sane.
True. But as more normal people find Lemmy, eventually they'll be outnumbered. lemmy.ml and lemmygrad are already starting to ice themselves out of a lot of instance through overly heavy moderation and pro-fascist censorship.
Yeah there's some gross communities here but hopefully the tankies get overshadowed by all the normal people.
