Lemmy

After 14 years on reddit I’m tired of watching it die, the death of Apollo is what pushed me over the edge, I loved Apollo. I’ve been browsing in here for the past few days. I like it. Trying to get used to it. Fuck reddit and u/spez all of the situation was trash. Thank you all for recommending this site!! I’m excited to be apart of it!

I'll post my puppy everyone likes puppies.

This is me not lurking

Long time no see, Lemmy. I hope Reddit ending is for the best, and I hope all my precious communities migrate to open source software.

but i don't have anything to say

other than fuck spez of course

Big time introverted lurker on reddit, since here is a much smaller community, I don't feel so intimidated. I'll try to be more active here. Let's do this guys, let's create a great place for all the Reddit Refugees. FUCK u/Spez!

i suppose i will not lurk

Alright sir, I shall upvote and comment whenever I feel I have something useful to add!

I already blocked access to reddit on my network, so lurking is not an option for me ;)

Don't tell me what to do...

Ah shit.

Ok, you win this round.

Okay, hello ♥️

F*ck /u/spez

EDIT: Spelling

Just deleted all of my posts and a 12-year old reddit account. So long Reddit...

You're right, I'll try. I enjoy reading, but often get overwhelmed with trying to respond, so I end up just giving up and not finishing my

Huh. So that's how you comment!

test comment please ignore

Let's defeat the 90/9/1-rule!

But....but...I like lurking.

It's hard being a lurker for so long, I only started interacting with a few smaller subreddits around sporting events and then within a year, all this crap started happening. Feel sorry for all the 3rd party developers, I used Boost and I'm glad I supported the developer over the years but can't believe how they ended up being treated. Death to Reddit

It’s a bit difficult getting into Lemmy and the feediverse I gotta say. But after looking around for a while I really like how things work here, compared to reddit

Scraped my reddit account and here to post Manatee!

One thing that might keep people off is how communities are created/duplicated on Lemmy. I mean you can have the exact same community but on different instances. Then you start asking yourself which one should I join? or perhaps both? This definitely will confuse people.

I've been on reddit for far longer than I'd care to admit. It's been a weird feeling deleting all of my bookmarks and apps in an attempt to avoid just absently mindedly returning.

How does one comment here??

Hey now, I lurked on Reddit for years and it grew to be a huge success. I'm ready to repeat this bold strategy!

Agreed! I am curious with this, how did you guys find out about Lemmy? In my case, I was scrolling through Reddit and saw somebody talking about Lemmy. I researched a little bit and here I am! I would love to hear from y'all tho

I haven’t been lurking but feel like I should comment here specifically lol

I'm confused by Lemmy but also excited to try and help it grow.

I like Lemmy! I'll add something to the conversation, just this once...

I'm trying to not lurk, but it's a hard habit to break

Hello, new reddit refugee here. I've been hearing about the fediverse and mastodon some time now. Heard about lenny a couple of months ago, but didn't feel the need to make an account at the time. With the dumpfire that's going on it reddit I figured it was high time I jumped ship.

I have a question that might sound stupid. Is there a way to get the same functionality as reddit's custom feeds in lemmy? Where you have multiple feeds that are "subscribed" to different sets of communities.

I'm not lurking. You are!

I feel like leaving reddit is a big change in my life. Hopefully, Lemmy takes off and remains a much more positive place.
