I don’t care that the fediverse has a ton of traffic. It may not have the most users, but it definitely has the best

[-] Guster@lemmy.world 33 points 11 months ago

Very true. I'm still amazed how good lemmy is considering how small we still are.

[-] Boozilla@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

100% agree. Have encountered a few jerkwads on Lemmy but hey, blocking works. The overall vibe here is 100x better than schmeddit.

[-] ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 11 months ago

Quick question regards blocking - how does it work exactly?

When I block someone, I can still see their message. Just won’t get a notification. I thought, it would be blocked entirely - so I’m a bit confused.

[-] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Might depend on the instance or client. I'm using Liftoff. They cease to exist for me.

When a blocked user replies to my message I get no notification and might just see "1 more reply" or something like that but when I click it it wont load. Only when I sign out can I read it. However I believe that the blocked users can still see my messages just fine. Same with bans. I can see all posts from lemmy.ml but they can't see mine.

I much much prefer the niche community here. Much less shit to have to wade through (see: came here to say this x 100000 per post) to get to the good comments and posts

Lemmy doesn't have boosting. ...I should check out KBin sometime, also because of the better Mastodon integration

[-] ContentConsumer9999@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

I'd highly recommend it. The dev has been on an #improvement rampage lately. The future of the project seems bright.

@Pregnenolone yeah I haven't seen a single "this is the way" comment chain since I got here.

[-] Pregnenolone@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I’ve seen a few but fortunately they’re rare and they are often downvoted or ignored

[-] seathru@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

Exactly. I don't need the most users. The internet was better back when it wasn't everybody.

[-] Toribor@corndog.social 3 points 11 months ago

People complaining about a loss of users are the same people that will complain about performance issues next time there is a huge influx of users that stresses the infrastructure for popular instances.

[-] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

I’m way less mad about Kbin having issues than I ever was at Reddit
