To clarify, they're known as Communities on Lemmy, or magazines on mbin.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Well they're called communities on reddit too officially

Now, but for the majority of the time I used reddit they still were only ever "subreddits".

Remember for a time there weren't even any subreddits.

I followed specific communities here at first like I did on Reddit, but Lemmy is so small I ended up mostly just browsing the Local feed. It’s a reasonable size (on lemmy.world anyway) and exposes me to some things I would never have found otherwise.

There is also a bunch of crap in there but I find it easy enough to just scroll past what doesn’t interest me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Yeah aight fair enough. I'm liking that you can fully block subs on here versus reddit where you can't. Much more freedom in tuning your feed.

Have you... have you never felt the joy of holding a great stick?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Absolutely. Every time I browse the porn communities here.

Thanks to this post, I have spent the past few minutes looking at pictures of sticks and going "kwoah, that's a good stick." Time well spent.
