One good indicator that Lemmy is becoming popular is how many people are posting their bits on it!

oh my God, how terrible!! Where, so I can avoid it?

I love how we're just sold the opportunity to pay money to play a game, maybe, someday, under certain circumstances, anymore /s

I hear it's more fun there anyway, sweetie.

thanks, it's terrifying

I usually only lurked on the larger subs because of that problem

"I had to suffer, so now you do too" - the dedovshchina mindset.

I think a big and legitimate concern is that some communities which wish to grow and have room for growth will end up not growing because of unintentional (rather than intentional) splintering. Really wish there was some way around that

As I understand it almost all (or actually all?) local governments had raised the age, but it's good that it's addressed on a national level too!

Greed crushes communities :/

I'm trying to get Fucking Evil, Fucking Fascists, and Fucking Bullies off the ground on Kbin! I used to mod (and was the founder of) communities of the same name on Reddit.

Fucking Evil is all about being attracted to evil guys and gals, and the evil they do. Fucking Fascists is the same, but for authoritarians. Fucking Bullies is for being attracted to one's own bully. Obviously all of them are kink and utterly non-serious. I try to make captions that have a very over the top "He called me a cunt and now my poor wittle body makes me obey his every word 🥺" kind of feel to emphasis the absurdity but also the bombastic nature of the kink!

It's amazing how shitheads tend to clump together!

"How dare the proles stop making me money! What am I (not) paying them for??"
