If you have an iPhone I suggest you try
memmy
application, it’s great !It’s really nice . I’d really love to get the members from r/daria over to my c/daria because i literally don’t have anyone else to talk about the show Daria.
Alright, alright, alright!
Yo is that the Hasselhoff??
indeed. more info here (NSFW pics at this link): https://news.artnet.com/art-world/see-raunchy-photos-from-calarts-in-the-1970s-62256
Oh wow lol, the 70s were a wild time
it sure seems so. how cool is this guy to get ‘the’ in front of his name? I know he’s had his controversies and cringy Hollywood moments, with the drunk burger eating and generally being a douchebag and all, but that sort of thing doesn’t bother me. He’s an unashamed Machiavellian party animal and I refuse to hate on him
How could anyone hate on someone who has such unparalleled-in-history smash hits like “Jump in my car”? :)
Personally I prefer how on Reddit you can get really specific communities. Like for tsundere sharks, or bread stapled to trees.
Give it some time, user count is still tiny compared to Reddit so obviously niche content will be less common at first. But it’s growing rapidly, I’ve not even been here a week and every day it feels more alive.
Definitely has a level of “aliveness” that already makes this a usable Reddit replacement.
I’ve been on Lemmy for only a few weeks, and I am already seeing pretty growth on niche communities. The TTRPG community specifically was pretty much dead here a couple of weeks ago. But now there are lots and lots more people! The communities are active, there is constantly new content, and actual upvotes. Nice to see! I am looking forward to watching this place grow.
I’m participating more, and I’m getting lurkers joining communities I’ve made and upvoting at least. Soon we’ll have a thriving social site.
I’m in this picture and I like it
Fug yea
I use all the tools I can. Reddit has a great community in a lot of subreddits that are extremely helpful. So are many standalone forums for the topics I enjoy. Lemmy is just another option for great content. I prefer Lemmy to Reddit as a platform, but the content - I really don’t care where it’s hosted as long as it’s free (free as in freedom of information, not just cost).
Reddit’s gone to shit, but I’ll still hit those SysAdmin and other subs for information. Too valuable not to.
I feel seen.
I’ll be honest, I have not weened myself 100% off Reddit just yet. However, I notice with each passing day since Reddit sabotaged third party apps that I am opening and scrolling through Memmy first and more often than I am doing with Narwhal. So while I have not left Reddit behind just yet, leaving it behind is getting easier by the day as more people start coming over to Lemmy and is becoming more active.
It’ll be even easier when Narwhal starts charging you for the privilege
Agreed, at that point is probably when I’ll cut myself off for good from Reddit.
Good so far. Though I miss seeing videos in the feed
The old memes and posts about a dude not wanting to poop for 3 days has given me pure joy.
But everyone here has also been really great, and I’ve had no shortage of posts and comments to interact with.
Yeah, actually people and communities look less toxic but I guess that would soon change.
Ay! Hope for the best and maybe it won’t!
I like how you accidentally replied four times and people upvoted all of them.
This is the spirit of Lemmy right now! Everyone knows that this person didn’t mean to reply so many times, and it likely happened because they’re struggling to get involved with alpha software giving them erroneous error messages, so we’re gonna upvote each reply to show that we get it, and we know this is a temporary condition (like youth) that will end soon, making it even sweeter to devour now with abandon
Lol maybe cuz I’m on an app
Yeah, could be. But in any case, I upvoted all of them as well. Cheers!
Ay! Hope for the best and maybe it won’t!
Ay! Hope for the best and maybe it won’t!

I haven’t missed Reddit once since I started using Lemmy. This place is a vibe.
Some of that real fediverse freedom
feeling it!
Does thou feel it now, Mr. Krabs?
yes SpongeBob I’m feeling it now lol
Truth. There’s a nice, positive vibe here.
There’s a lot less inflammatory content. Sure, the occasional, “X tech company is screwing you over in a new way,” but nothing like Reddit’s vitriol.
Tbf, I have a slight feeling the users here might have a FOSS bend at a higher clip, so that perspective is to be expected.
I know because I’m one of these guys. Insert any tech company in for X and I’ll have something to grumble about after a few beers 😅
I’d grumble about any tech company before any beer, afterwards it will be an uncontrollable rant xD
Yeah? Well you’re an idiot.
Since we’re bringing back ancient memes:
Nu-uh! My echo chamber says YOU’RE the idiot!
