It's much better here! It’s nice and cozy, kinda like Reddit circa 15 years ago.

For your memes we have !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch, if you like sciency posts mander.xyz has some excellent communities (communities=subreddits) like !science@mander.xyz!biology@mander.xyzand !astronomy@mander.xyz and for a meme science combo there's always the fantastic !science_memes@mander.xyz

You can also drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or hang out at !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone (though you do have to post before you leave that one!)

If you want to explore the world of PC Gaming on Linux check !linux_gaming@lemmy.world or for more general Linux !linux@programming.dev and we even have a Linux meme comm at !linuxmemes@lemmy.world (we like Linux around here lmao)

For news !world@lemmy.world is excellent and for US focused news !news@lemmy.world and !usa@midwest.social

Want to ensure your privacy in this crazy world? Checkout !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

And of course, the best for last, the best comm on the Lemmy-verse, !bikinibottomtwitter@lemmy.world !!! Just make sure to buy a krabby patty!

We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies, but here they’re mostly on what's known as the Tankie Triad: lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. For the most part, grad and hex are widely defederated from (Users and content of those instances won't be "synced" and you won't see them) and 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. .ml tends to be more subtle opting for censorship of dissent before things get crazy on their threads and allowing certain propaganda to flourish (If you wish to see documentation of it, checkout !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works ) Here on Lemmy all moderator actions are public and available for viewing on what's known as the "modlog"

Obligatory, fuck Spez

Deleted my Reddit account when I could no longer use Apollo, but still kept up with a few subs for certain info. Finally discovered Lemmy and after being here for a short while I’ve nearly stopped visiting. This news has given me the push to be done 100%.

There are no good monster fucker communities like there are on reddit and I don't think lemmynsfw would host them anyway.

[-] DragonOracleIX@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 week ago

Be the change you want to see in the community. I'm sure there is at least one instance that will allow it.

[-] oftheair 14 points 1 week ago

Why not make one?

Fresh from reddit here. What is the difference in subscribing and bookmarking a community and how do I find them after I subscribe/bookmark?

I'm using the Summit app if that makes a difference.

Subscribing is like Reddit, where your default frontpage view is only your subscribed communities. These communities could be from your server or a federated server, it just depends on what you subscribe to. You don't really need to think about how federation works, it'll just show up for you if you subscribe.

If you pick "Local" you'll see a feed of the the popular posts from all communities hosted on your own server only. Some of your subscribed comms might be in there if they're a local server comm. But it's just a general feed from your server alone.

If you go to "All" then you get a feed from all federated communities, so you could be seeing posts from /c/linux from lemmy.ml as well /c/linux from another server (though it's not likely to see posts from small communities unless you're an incorrigible doomscroller). Generally you'll run out of content on your subscribed only feed fairly quick due to the activity being relatively lower than Reddit, so browsing All gets you more content, but you'll run into a lot of irrelevant shit in the process. But it can be a good way to find more things to subscribe to, as well.

In any case, welcome. I fled reddit after 15 years of contributing by posting and modding when they burned the app community and shit on the people that made Reddit what it was. At least here I don't feel like my efforts to provide content and moderate is for someone else's benefit, least of all a greedy little pigboy like spez.

Be the change you want to see.

.ml users is somewhat problematic, they behave like the shills on reddit, the right wingers, often using the same talking points and buzzwords. ml is probably mostly populated the rejects/bans from reddit for the right reasons(posting disengious and offensive posts, misinformation.

Lemmy.ml living rent free in this person mind lmao. If you spent half the time you spam post crying about them developing a fork of Lemmy you would have actually be free from them now. At this point I'm starting to think you're actually getting paid for spewing brain rot

Been here for a few weeks now and have not looked at Reddit since. Time to cut ties and delete my account there I think.

Thanks for the welcome wagon. This was the first post I clicked on. I feel like a boomer (I am not one) trying to understand the Fediverse even though I can understand how email works, somehow I can't apply that to how it works here. Like am I supposed to be able to see Mastadon or Pixelfed content on here? What would that look like? Ok also had some weed tincture so that probably has something to do with my confusion. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I wanna be optimistic but I think those who are there and have held through the last few, they’ll all likely be getting used to it by now and not caring.

Oh yeah, c'mon, give me some populated niche subs!

We'll get there... eventually.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Was this before or after I got banned sight wide in December for posting diy Luigi Mangione prayer candles on witches vs patriarchy?

[-] FIbynight@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

8 year account. Started closing it down when the Luigi ban took effect but finally wipe it completely when this got announced.

Only really miss one group from there that isn’t here yet, which I suppose I should start but haven’t yet been inclined to do.
