Can someone help me get started
Bye Reddit, hello Lemmy.
Time to boycott that platform it has become a joke.
Loving it here!
I’ve been or Reddit for years. recently got a ban because I commented on a post on r/pics, but apparently since I had commented in a subreddit they disagreed with I was permanently banned from their community. I asked what post and and was told I’m now muted for 28 days. All done by bots.
I forgot about it and carried on, but one day about 20 days later I commented with a different account on another r/pics post. Suddenly both accounts are now blocked from Reddit for 7 days.
Well fuck em, I deleted that app. When bots can get you banned, for not even saying anything wrong, just because you commented on another subreddit that whole site is fucked and going to hell.
Happy to be here and hopefully we can not deal with the same ban hammer style bs that Reddit is doing.
Happy to be part of the first big wave of 2025. I’m sure there will be plenty more.
Thanks for having me!
Reddit has been absolutely toxic over the past month or so. Looking forward to a change of pace!
Just got here. Seems pretty cool so far.
Came here to support Canada and boycott all American products including tech/reddit. Elbows up!
I'm ashamed to admit that your username got a chuckle out of me
Hey, thanks a lot for taking care of the server and stuff : ) Looking forward to meet this nice community.
Welcome!!!
Yeah, Ive been seeing posts getting lot of upvotes recently welcome reddit refugees!!
This is encouraging. I wish i found out about Lemm.ee sooner. I had heard of it before but for some reason stayed on reddit that is until they IP banned me for a comment essentially saying “international law states occupied indigenous populations have a right to resist and fight occupation by any means necessary including organized violence” and now seeing how reddit is attacking people for supporting Luigi Mangione and calling for revolution against a decrepit disgusting fascist regime that obviously wont allow for any systemic change within its own mechanisms is beyond concerning. We need people still on reddit to spread the word and help those still trapped in that awful corporatist controlled community to break free and join lemm.ee
Just got permabanned sitewide from Reddit for saying “trans women are women” and nothing more than that, so I figured I’d check this place out.
Jeez wow, unbelievable
Wow, reddit sucks.
Thank you so much for creating this instance. I appreciate all your work.
I didn’t think I’d like it here. It turns out I like it quite a bit.
Same. Welcome here
I signed up with a different account but never recieved a verification email and was unable to login. I also could not find how to request a new verification email. I would really like to get that account activated. Does any one know how to get the verification email resent?
New friends! :)
Such a relief to scroll through posts without having to worry about what's advertisement, it has a much more genuine and human feeling.
It's so cool being here. Actual people being people with a certain hint of joy because of being here.
Heyo :D
I feel comfortable here. Thank you very much.
Hello there!
There were just a cumulative collection of Subreddit mods that had banned me over the years.
I made a comment on a subreddit I was banned on and they decided to ban me for life.
Hello everyone I’m new here and start to understand how it works , but one question Is there a translator as in Reddit ? Thanks
Hello all! Does anybody know how old my account should be before I can make a post(not a comment). I was trying to upload a photo on the sourdough community(is it called a community?), and I‘ve got the message that my account is to new to post. It is 11 days old. I could not find in a quick search how old it should be. I‘ve asked AI and it said around 48h for some communities.
Note there is a 500kb upload limit for images on lemm.ee, it could be that.
Alternatively you could just drop the image you're trying to use in https://postimages.org/ and use that.
Thanks. I tried with a resized one of 450kb, says the same thing. I will wait a while I suppose…
Nice to be here :D. Took a short while to understand the layout, im on Voyager. Unfortunately, i still think that the design needs to be even simpler to get really popular, like for example that the app asks for your interests and lets you start into these instances right away. But i think i will stay :)
Yea there's lots of improvements that can be made, you can also try out other mobile apps like Sync and see if you like them more. When I was new I installed 4 of them and I actually use both Sync and Voyager now, sometimes switch between them just because.
Yay! My first post 😃 Thank you 🙏
It is interesting to learn what drives behavioural change (individually and group wise). The 'I am really done with this 💩' makes us move and look out for better alternatives.
