One more reason to use Lemmy.

[-] themobrules@lemm.ee 57 points 6 days ago

This story compelled me to finally commit to using Lemmy.

Grab some beans, make yourself at home.

[-] kevin____@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago

Beans?

[-] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 17 points 6 days ago

It's kinda lemmy lore I guess.
Beans was a wave of shitposts from about 16 months ago where poeple kept posting a bunch of beans in various forms and the whole feed was mostly beans.

You'll also stumble upon the "3 days no poop" thing where someone asked a question in asklemmy I think about how to avoid shitting for 3 days.
I think they later deleted their account, but they were very mysterious about why and people genuinely came with ideas for them and it snowballed into its own thing.

Unrelated, but similar to the poop knife, if only in the inside joke / lore kinda thing.

Thank you for not immediately going to "world", just because it has the most users.

I got banned from r/comics for calling out US imperialism. Got called a Russian propagandist ๐Ÿ˜ต And now here I am :)

I got banned from Reddit because I made a suggestion on what should happen to a violent bull terrier dog that attacked a family member

And they had a child

No free speech on Reddit

I think they have people move in to moderator roles that can choose to ban people who disagree with their opinions
