There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!

[cm0002@lemmy.cafe]

Welcome! We've got memes on deck at [email protected] and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got [email protected] to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at [email protected] or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful [email protected] or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like [email protected] and [email protected] . [email protected] is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.

We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a .ee account so 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. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check [email protected]

I’ve enjoyed it. Doubt I’m using it to its fullest ability. Only on two instances.

[gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

I used it for awhile (I've been on Reddit for about 13 years)

Honestly though pulling more away from social media is good for my mental health. And making the experience more abrasive so it's less of a passive thing is good.

[biscuit@lemdro.id]

I think they're referring to the fact that you no longer can create accounts without using an email address. You were able to use a UI loophole to do it before via Old Reddit, but no more.

[irelephant@lemm.ee]

just a heads up, the instance you're on is pretty controversial.

[irelephant@lemm.ee]

You don't need multiple accounts, communities are subscribable from remote instances.

[wilco@lemm.ee]

Reddit is being crazy and censoring/banning people.

I created an account a while back now, but it’s been mostly inactive since then. I’m liking it a lot more here!

[cm0002@lemmy.world]

Welcome back! Just...be careful about what you say on the instance you're on LMAO

[couldntcarebear@sh.itjust.works]

Sync for Lemmy is a good app' if anyone is looking for RIF like experience. Sync

[whatyouneed@lemmy.world]

Speaking of users, whatever happened to Flyingsquid?

[punkibas@lemmy.world]

You can have gestures disabled on voyager and just use the buttons

[prettyflyforafatguy@feddit.uk]

Yeah, what the other guy said. lemmy.ml is run by tankies. best to move

i moved from .ml about a year ago because of their moderation... "policies"

[killeronthecorner@lemmy.world]

Reddit, when the walls fell

[prettyflyforafatguy@feddit.uk]

i still lurk a lot. i have a rule against posting there though... which admittedly i did break recently, but only to plug lemmy. otherwise no posts/comments there in two years

[cm0002@lemmy.world]

Idk I was just thinking that last night, hasn't been active in like 2 weeks. I hope they're ok

[Guest]

Yeah it was definitely partly due to the domain names. But a big part of it is that I'm kinda a dumb ass when it comes to this stuff sometimes. I think I went on the playstore and searched lemmy? I honestly can't remember. But the guide I followed was pretty much tailor made to dumbasses/lazy people. I'm so glad I saw it

[Guest]

I use voyager and don't use any gestures. Looks like I turned them off in settings. And they have a ton of options for things you can adjust in the settings. I was a reddit is fun app user and am completely happy with voyager. But I'm also almost always just lurking. So more active users might have more problems but with how much you can adjust it I doubt it.

[imaqtpie@lemmy.myserv.one]

Nice, I didn't know fedecan hosted graphs like this. The fediverse.observer graph has a weird scale and Fedidb has also been weird lately, so this is a good alternative.
