it was never about the abortions.

as always, the cruelty was the point.

I’m not saying you shouldn’t try, and maybe I’m wrong. I’ve seen people try this on reddit and have it not work, but maybe lemmy is different. also, perhaps it depends on the community/subject matter itself?

best of luck!

Any growth that isn’t organic isn’t gonna last because it isn’t real. You can artificially inflate your participation statistics with artificial participation, but as soon as that ends, you’re going to return back to your base numbers. It’s extremely unlikely, in my opinion, that what you’re proposing would actually trigger organic growth on its own that would be of any meaningful or lasting quality.

how tf is it missing the #2 lemmy instance but somehow has every other one? also, so search, so sort…

not to mention, there’s no link to the site here

edit: these are fixed!

good start!

well… it’s not a good strategy if you’re lying your ass off, it happens to be true, AND you conspired with your lawyers to commit the crime you’re accused of.

now, Jack Smith (and every reasonable person on earth, the more clever dolphins, cetaceans, chimps, corvidae, octopods, and a couple of transdimentional mice) knows this is the case, so this is definitely a terrible strategy. It’s also patently Trump to blame anyone else for his own actions but himself. Predictable, even.

yeah, it’s called a “trial”.

the “trap” is that he knows Trump will “lie” because Smith has “mountains of evidence” that Trump and his co-conspirators are “incredibly fucking guilty."

it asked me to create an account when I started up the app, then claimed I “wasn’t on the list” then had me sign up for a wait list.

yet another web browser that promises the world and delivers… nothing.

oh, look, musk made yet another stupid, impulsive decision that could have disastrous, short- and long-term consequences for twitter er… “x”

It’s like a comedy version of the matrix, if that makes sense.

well, Matrix: Russurections was clearly satire, and I laughed through the entire thing, so, yeah, that makes sense to me.

turning ben shapiro into a real boy was a mistake

good job, and well done! this, of course, will require constant vigilance, not merely one single effort. hopefully, a common protocol can be developed - perhaps a set of maintenance tools for instance admins - to help manage large numbers of inactive and otherwise suspicious accounts, especially making it easier and more straightforward for those instance owners with less experience managing large user databases.

in the meantime, perhaps it would be useful to create more extensive documentation and guides for instance admins on the subject?

it’s like living in Tron. it’s not as cool as I thought it would be when I was a kid.

iced milk is okay as long as you drink it before the ice melts. then, ew.

or you can blend it, then it’s a milk smoothie!

it was different. Digg underwent a major site overhaul and redesign that the users universally hated, and most everyone migrated to reddit almost overnight. the changes were rumored to be coming for a couple of months, so the migration had already started slowly over that time, but once Digg version 4.0 was implemented, a virtual tidal wave of users rushed over to reddit all at once.

Reddit had already existed for a few years by that point and already had an existing user base and culture, similar to lemmy now. Unlike the Digg —> reddit exodus, however, reddit is. now many times the size that digg ever was and is dying a slow, ugly death. while lemmy is experiencing surges in users, it’s happening in several smaller waves rather than all at once as users explore several available alternatives, possibly staying on reddit and dealing with the crappy experience, or even going without it at all, having given up on social media altogether.

btw, digg is still around, it’s just nothing like what it used to be.

I swear, I saw this exact post on reddit 18 years ago
