I'm using Thunder and really enjoying it
Ill check it out. Thank you.

Thank you for the reply. The thing is, and I think this will apply to others too, I’m just a casual user. Unknown boxes scare me.
Couldn’t they be hidden away on signup (prefilled) and only visible when you click ‘advanced’.
Also, I have a mastodon account too. Are they now the same thing?
What "boxes" are you talking about here, when signing up on a Lemmy provider?
Mastodon and Lemmy is different software, serving two different functions, but they are connected. So it is possible for a user on Mastodon to create and comment on posts from Mastodon, on Lemmy.
If you follow this link to Mastodon.social, you can see this post and our comments.

The real robes were the Caroline's we got DMed by along the way.
Is Caroline like the new Nicole? The site's moving too fast already, I can't keep up!
-
My guess is robe crimes
Namely disrobing at inopportune times.

No, I'm just terrible with names.. blew it again..

Big uptick last few days. I’ve heard there were more redditors coming over after more dumb stuff occurred recently. There was the Luigi hat thing recently.
I had previously used lemmy a while ago, but wasn't too impressed. Then after getting frustrated with reddit time and time again, I tried again, but couldn't find a simple way to get back here. The other day, a post on reddit detailed a very simple way to get here. And now I'm here. (and loving it very much so far)

Just curious, what was difficult about finding a way to get back here?
Is it because the various instance names are hard to remember?
My theory is that’s why so many new people end up on Lemmy.world. Many of the other popular instances have host names / domain names that are more difficult to remember and to tell someone about verbally.

What’s that dip on 2/12? What happened?
-
Wait, I've been here almost 2 years, where's my robes‽
You and I will be considered the early adaptors. People will guess as to why we migrated so early.

Just got so sick of reddits smarminess. It’s also just astroturfed corporate BS at this point anyway.
I’ve been boycotting Amazon for over a year (and quite frankly won’t ever stop), won’t shop at Target and won’t visit super corporatized social media.
Reddit has proven time and time again they’re just a whipping boy for corporate interests.

What is the reddit drama this time?
Tension over there is huge. After I turned a little more political in my comments, it took me only 2 months or so to accrue 3 temp bans. The appeals were not heard, they are wrong and don't care. The last appeal got me booted forever. Prepare for way more users.

What’s that dip on 2/12? What happened?
The hexbear.net instance went down, because the admins forgot to renew the domain name
(Technically the server was still running, but
federationlemmy-stats-crawler works via domain names) -
What’s that dip on 2/12? What happened?
Hexbear went offline as the domain expired, went to auction and the domain admin was MIA. They've been restored as the domain admin (unfortunately) came back and reclaimed it

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.

Use Reddit Enhancement Suite. You'll thank me later.
makes red it much more usable and easy on the eyes.
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.
-
Wait first I'm hearing of this one. What happened now?
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.
-
just a heads up, the instance you're on is pretty controversial.
