Feels like they promote lemmy the same way microsoft promotes linux

[-] kyub@discuss.tchncs.de 60 points 1 month ago

Basically yes. The alternatives passively become better simply because of the mainstream option becoming worse over time. I think it's still going too slowly in general but I'm not complaining, better slow than not at all.

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 27 points 1 month ago

Better slow than too fast too. Lemmy feels like a nice fairly small community. I'm not sure that'll continue once it's the size of Reddit. We'll get more content and niche communities will be better served though, so there's pros and cons.

Watch this: Luigi is a hero

[-] MelancholyMushroom@lemmy.world 81 points 1 month ago

Just made an account here ten minutes ago. The format feels weird but it’s nice to be able to continue talking like sensible people without getting banned for it. Feels good, man.

[-] skeesx@lemm.ee 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Check out lemmyapps.com for different apps and webUIs. There is even sm old reddit style clone like old.lemmy.world for example.

[-] Goldmage263@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago

Happy you could join! You'll find that not only are bans much more reasonable, but conversations are frequently downright pleasant. Aditionally, there are communities built just for calling out mods that abuse power or are heavily biased. The system here is working much better from a user perspective.

Having not been using this place as regularly for the last couple of weeks, it definitely looks like there's more upvotes on posts now in general compared to when I started up here about two months ago. Even just before this latest Reddit fuck up, it looks a lot to me like there's been a steady influx lately. Like suddenly noticing that the grass has got longer.

Haha thanks! I've been lurking a fair amount. Just a little more distracted currently.

[-] calcopiritus@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago

When I made my Lemmy account (the day reddit put a paywall on the API) most posts didn't even have comments (sorting by hot/popular). And it would be common to run out of new posts after a bit of scrolling. Now it looks about the same level of activity as reddit 10-something years ago.

Oh yeah, I've only been on Lemmy a few months but I've noticed it. I was one baby face emoji (is that just a Voyager thing?) in a sea of old accounts, but recently I've been seeing more and more of those baby emojis

I'm an exodusee as well, just a minnow at this point.

I just got sick of the right wing bullshit, the censorship, the shills, the morons, the bootlickers...

Hello all

[-] MetalMat@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago

Right here with you. Posted a brief goodbye on my sub and jumped over here. Luigi.

We're witnessing the second reddit wave now, just like we always knew it would come eventually when reddit crossed another enshitification threshold.

Welcome all!

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 1 month ago

Next one will be when the kill old.reddit.

You know that's coming

I’m pretty sure my account ban is coming, the fact it isn’t banned already is likely an oversight of the fascist running the place.

Reddit full bore banned me for saying "I should have a legal right to punch nazis" and declined my appeal.

Reddit is unironically nazi aligned and that's not a joke it's terrifying.

I got a warning for upvoting too much violent content. I know it’s bullshit. I contributed regarding economics but nothing violent.

Done with Reddit.

[-] IceyPea@lemm.ee 27 points 1 month ago

Never got my wrist slapped. But enforcing votes is beyond the pale.

Dipped my toes into lemmy during the last exodus (2023?) but I'm done posting to reddit forever now.

Mods remove a post from /r/worldnews about Musk pushing for the US to leave NATO because it’s “not the appropriate subreddit”…? Excuse me, what the fuck???

[-] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 14 points 1 month ago

Mod decisions always baffled me, both on Reddit and Lemmy. We aren't immune to it.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

But here it's a lot easier to set up a new home.

!theonion@midwest.social is still very popular but I saw the writing on the wall and jumped to make an alt !theonion@sh.itjust.works because people had gripes with the Midwest admin and I wanted to prevent an inevitable Lemmy.world alternative from appearing.

And now we happily co-exist. Theirs tends to focus more on the political while I like to also post the more mundane, slice-of-life, articles

[-] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 43 points 1 month ago

It's why I'm here. 12 year member, nearly a million in karma, perma-banned for repeating a statement I'd made many times in the past with no repercussions. The first time I repeated it after HitlerPig stole the election, I was fully banned.

It's happening because Ohanion wants to buy TikTok, and he knows HitlerPig will be personally making the decision, based on who smooched his ass the most, and who paid the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he's volunteering to make Reddit a member of the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

I hope Reddit goes the way of Digg.

Hello folks! Found out I was banned this morning and spent all day trying to figure out an alternative. All for liking a post that said Trump raped a girl. Oh well. He did rape a girl so wtf?

Permabanned after nearly 12 years. Forgive me for hating Nazi's. I'd made the statement fuck all Nazi's but six several times but this time was this time I got automod flagged. They are pretty much flagging the word Nazi regardless of context or overall statements made. The same goes for the word Luigi. Also, Karma is basically useless considering downvoting too much can also lead to a ban. It is pretty ridiculous. I'd never been banned once for any reason except for the last 6 months where I've been sub banned or gotten 3-7 day bans several times for making points about the sorry state of affairs in America lately. Forgive me for not bowing to kiss the fascist MAGA ring. Reddit has really put profits over people this time with these stupid rules and no real care in reading appeals or looking at context during moderation. It is all for their bottom line and oligarch investors now.

[-] LeninOnAPrayer@lemm.ee 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Interesting. My 10 year old account also got perma banned for telling someone defending the third Nazi salute to "go to hell".

Apparently I should have told them to "go fuck themselves". But telling them to "go to hell" was inciting violence or whatever.

today / last night he confidentley stated that the X cyberattack was "traced" to Ukraine.

he's just another head of the hydra, the hydra being the transnational crime syndicate that masquerades as the US, Russian, and other governments.

[-] drhodl@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I spent an hour last night interacting with and outing ruzzian trolls on Reddit. There was no doubt these were ruzzians, because after a couple of tit-for-tat comments, they use terms like "we" when talking about ruzzias invasion of Ukraine. They all knew what Yandex was without asking or querying it, as a non ruzzian would. In some comments I explained why ruzzia is a third world shithole country, because I've been there. I told a couple to go dig babushka a fresh latrine pit, and a couple others how good they'd look fertilizing sunflowers in Kursk Woke up today, and I've been permanently banned "for inciting violence". Reddit is a hive full of ruzzian trolls and bots, and the moderators appear to support them. I don't think I'll bother creating another account lol.

I've had a few of my "check out lemmy.ca" posts deleted there and frankly I don't see how it breaks reddit TOS. They're just bitter.

To me, getting banned from Reddit (without being a dick) it's a medal of honor. Guess I'll have to try harder...

[-] techclothes@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Not too hard anymore. Say Luigi or upvote Luigi a day you're getting the ban hammer.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
