Maybe not such a shitpost but the mere existence of things like Lemmy and kBin is comforting, especially after living through the enshittification of Reddit.

Me too; I prefer Lemmy now but I've gone to specific subs on Reddit when I didn't know where else to find certain info and I've noticed a serious reduction in both quantity and quality of posts. I kept wondering if it was in my head but it's so many different subs I think it must be the case. Good riddance!

The Resistance has always been there. They rally around different things over the years, but the basic personalities remain the same. Allies of freedom will always exist and find each other.

Same, its existence gives me a little of hope even in the toughest moments. I don't care if people aren't always nice/polite, you have to deal with it IRL or on any online platform.

Lemmy has always been a sort of "cure" for me, listening to different people's opinions and learning something new or a new perspective on things every day.

Haven't used reddit since before Lemmy now. I think it's soon almost a year without them. :)

Ok sometimes I visit their site if a search engine links to some response. But then I'm out of there right away.

I leech reddit instead of seeding it now.

Is shitposting just becoming the default sub for lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

I'm sure it already is for some of us :D

You should try Linux. I use Arch btw.

Are you using Wayland or X11?

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

Xmonad (x11)

Wayland is still not ready for my usecase and I'm too used to my x tools.

Maybe in another 5 years wayland will be 100% ready for me.

You guys have a display server?

Video card drivers are too much bloat so I instead draw on the monitor with a dry erase marker
