It's much better here! It’s nice and cozy, kinda like Reddit circa 15 years ago.

For your memes we have [email protected] and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got [email protected] to scratch that itch, if you like sciency posts mander.xyz has some excellent communities (communities=subreddits) like [email protected][email protected]and [email protected] and for a meme science combo there's always the fantastic [email protected]

You can also drop a shit(post) off at [email protected] or hang out at [email protected] (though you do have to post before you leave that one!)

If you want to explore the world of PC Gaming on Linux check [email protected] or for more general Linux [email protected] and we even have a Linux meme comm at [email protected] (we like Linux around here lmao)

For news [email protected] is excellent and for US focused news [email protected] and [email protected]

Want to ensure your privacy in this crazy world? Checkout [email protected]

And of course, the best for last, the best comm on the Lemmy-verse, [email protected] !!! Just make sure to buy a krabby patty!

We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies, but here they’re mostly on what's known as the Tankie Triad: lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. For the most part, grad and hex are widely defederated from (Users and content of those instances won't be "synced" and you won't see them) and you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you’d rather just not deal with them. .ml tends to be more subtle opting for censorship of dissent before things get crazy on their threads and allowing certain propaganda to flourish (If you wish to see documentation of it, checkout [email protected] ) Here on Lemmy all moderator actions are public and available for viewing on what's known as the "modlog"

Obligatory, fuck Spez

.ml users is somewhat problematic, they behave like the shills on reddit, the right wingers, often using the same talking points and buzzwords. ml is probably mostly populated the rejects/bans from reddit for the right reasons(posting disengious and offensive posts, misinformation.

I remember Reddit after I started using it, around the time of the Digg exodus. It was a fun community of nerdy people. Just doing some things because it was cool.

A few years later, I had the weirdest feeling that that vibe was gone. That both behind the scenes, and more overtly, they had to be prepping for accommodation of corporate interests. A little bit of officially sanctioned promotion here, a dash of ignoring guerrilla marketing there.

And for several years now, it's not even subtle anymore. Reddit does what some dude with money bags says must be done, users be damned.

by 2016, the enshittification was appearing, because of trump 17 is when the bannings of accounts for the slightest disagreement became noticible, around the same time illicit subs became a target of bans, because GOP complained.

That explains the mountain of bans.

There are no good monster fucker communities like there are on reddit and I don't think lemmynsfw would host them anyway.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

Be the change you want to see in the community. I'm sure there is at least one instance that will allow it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

Why not make one?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (4 children)

If you find or create one, let me know.

Yup, looks like @[email protected] is going to be busy again ❤️

Woo! Thanks for the mander.xyz shout out. Come for the science memes, stay for the top-tier science discussions.

Typo in your [email protected] ref. Takes me to manner.xyz which redirects to GoDaddy...

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

Thanks lol, corrected. That's what I get for manually typing shit lmaooo

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I wanna be optimistic but I think those who are there and have held through the last few, they’ll all likely be getting used to it by now and not caring.

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

You can't reach everyone. But you don't need to. If Reddit can't grow, Spez is fucked. And my guess is right now he's cooking the books about what percent of comments are AI or spam.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

Not true. I'm pretty recent. We all have a different bar for how much shit we'll take I suppose.
