If you've been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.

Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)

Yeah I think it's best we don't advertise this place. It's a little strange.

[–] [email protected] 145 points 1 month ago (11 children)

Come to Lemmy, we got: blood thirsty Linux users, furries, femboys, communists, and tankies. Also, porn.

[–] [email protected] 53 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The porn is sadly lacking, actuallly.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Be the change you want to see

Honestly I might get more active in posting, cause some of the content I wanna see is not active/has one person posting on the community. I rarely post on any social media, but the fediverse just sparks something in me to make it a more active place.

What exactly does a DragonTypeWyvern tail look like? Is it long with scales?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Depends on the kind of wyvern

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

That's all wyverns. Reddit is demonstrably and embarrassingly wrong.

There we go. I was waiting to be represented.

I see a lot more Trek memes here than on reddit and I love every one

The Picard Maneuver "Am I joke to you?"

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Wait how is Squid this popular? 😂

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I'd say it is more notoriety than popularity.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Its not, this incident will be reported to the nearest democracy officer.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

He has the most posts and comments on the Lemmy activity scoreboard.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Mother of God, I did not realize that he's pushing 70k comments.

Btw are you just joking or isn't there actually a tool that checks Lemmy profiles and gives a neat little scorecard with some stats? I remember reading a thread where someone linked it but that was a while ago.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

The ios app Mlem shows a scoreboard of users in the search tab. Also Thunder has a monthly contribution stats on user profiles.

Thanks (⁠・⁠–⁠・⁠)⁠ ⁠\⁠(⁠・⁠◡⁠・⁠)⁠/

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Also, porn.

Where is this abhorrent content? I need to know so i can avoid it....

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Is sh.itjust.works not federated with lemmynsfw.com? Or maybe you use a Front page or Local feed. Here on world (no comment on the instance wars), lemmynsfw communities pretty regularly show up on my All feed. Seems like whatever they do with posts over there really makes the "Active" sorter happy, if you know what I mean

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

It definitely was federated back when I made my acct here, as I had to block it lmao.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That's what I was wondering. For a while I swear naked images of Rinkunn were more prevalent than The Picard Maneuver. I'm an All user mostly out of curiosity but disappointed that I think world defederated from one of the major furry ones cause that dropped considerably.

Wait, is disappointed the right word? I guess it is, although maybe i just miss their positivity. I'm still cool with hexbear being defederated, after all. Lol

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Often most of those at the same time.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Well, reddit has nothing at this point, so it's better than the competition.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

And knives.

And beans.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It has its own charm once you get used to it lmao

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The charm is why I keep coming back. Especially when it comes to the Lemmy Charm comments for lemmynsfw.com.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

On Reddit I looked at so many posts on one day, on Lemmy I read like 2 posts but go in the comments much more often. Actually I look at more comments than posts, which I find better!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Don’t forget the No Poop Challenge

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Thanks, Stefon.

It's no different than reddit, DIGG, or the Something Awful forums before they got popular.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Which is why it's based that it wasn't promoted

It's good to have some friends, but don't let too many normies in.....

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

We reached a point a while ago where yall saying shit like this became the "normies"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

a while ago where yall saying shit like this became the “normies”

Ohh it's normal for us. But there are still a lot of sports all-consuming, rabble rousing, linux hating, clue collar people still on Reddit, any I don't mind them staying over there.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nieche communities are very quiet here though.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

They are, probably even too quiet. But the level of griefers, bots and trolls is very very low, and selfishly, I REALLY like that.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We need to get more people in here if we want it to actually be a Reddit competitor. Right now it’s good for some communities, but smaller ones are still extremely underpopulated.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I've seen the moist cat mbin instance being promoted a few times in RedditAlternative before I move here, actually. it's one of my considerations jumping instances actually.
