Happy to be here! I love finding alternative platforms to the big ones, I’m a forum nerd and soon I’m thinking about moving one from phpBB 3 to either Discourse or Node.bb and having it join ActivityPub. I hope more people will join lemmy soon!
That would be cool!
happy to be here~~
One more sailor on your ship of freedom! I hope I can bring something useful too
Hello!
BuT WherES aLL My KaRMA?!? /s
fucking happy to be here!
Maybe I’ll updoot, maybe I’ll downdoot who knows? You don’t have to worry about internet points here
Here. You’ve got four of it.
Welcome. I think you will like it here. We’re kind of like reddit except we aren’t trying to make money from you, or your content. And we are more likely to follow the golden rule. And swear. Lots of swearing.
and we don’t limit or kill 3rd party app support, but rather support them, and even have a page about apps for lemmy which are, 3rd party
Welcome to the fediverse everyone
It’s like our own Reddit but with blackjack and hookers
and without fascist rules like banned keywords nazi Luigi etc, fuck reddit
DOZENNNNNSSSSSS
Welcome everyone!
Dont stress about which instance you join. Took me 3 tries before I found the one I like, but I was able to see most of the stuff from each one.
What made you decide on a tankie instance?
Be mindful of the smug “Lemmy Culture” hipsters, they’ll eventually weed themselves out or self segregate though as more normies flow in.
I welcome the masses.
nazis can stay the fuck out, though.
That’s right! Don’t be coming in here and bringing no f****** culture.
Same!
There might even be scores now
A veritable smorgasbord
I like to read this word the same American way Louis Rossmann once said it if it’s written like this. If it’s written smörgåsbord my inner voice gets a Swedish accent.
I wish I had used that spelling instead lol
Certainly a number of us
glad to be here!
Hey, does anyone know when a new user can upload an avatar? I’m still being denied.
I believe its a instance setting so it could be different then mine, but I couldn’t upload for a few weeks on .ml
As someone who’s been on Lemmy for a year, TIL avatars are a thing lol
Pfft!
Why not ? I little personalization is not bad.
Very true, I just didn’t know about it, maybe due to the app I use.
It take a few week on Lemm.ee IIRC. Most people wait for a bit, if that’s really important for you you can have a look at https://lemmy.zip/.
You can export and import your settings from your settings account using the default UI
Dozens? More.
How come theres been an influx of users recently? Did reddit shit the bed again?
say luigi and get warned
what did luigi do to you, reddit?
I got a warning today about upvoting violence. The only thing I have upvoted in the last little while is pro-Canada stuff like elbows up. If that gets me kicked off Reddit then fuck them and fuck spez the little pig boy.
I was just assuming it was all the censorship because any post with Luigi automatically gets deleted for violence even in the Nintendo subreddits talking about Luigi’s Mansion
For some people, Trump has shit the bed (invasion threats, trade wars etc) and has stimulated a number of people to move away from US-controlled services and products.
For me I left Reddit recently and switched because Reddit made a change that broke the Boost app.
Yes they started banning thousands of active users for “inciting violence” if you say things like “fuck Elon musk” or “my favorite character in super Mario bros is Luigi”
The Luigi thing is ridiculous and Nintendo will probably sue
Someone need to give them an idea, if we know one thing it’s how Nintendo likes to sue.
I still don’t understand this whole Luigi thing…
They seem to think if they censor hard enough that people will stop hating murderous billionaires.
Well i can understand that - the best character in super mario bros is Yoshi
Tru
Reddit recently started doubling down on far-right actions. Like making it so you can be banned for just upvoting a post that breaks the rules, or banning you for saying the name “Luigi.”
Personally, I recently got permabanned for being truthful about fascists.
