thebirdspapaya_snark

Lol dying at the irony of the site name. Hope to see the old snark back on Reddit. I’m PISSED they caved to her demands.

Happy to be back with my people! 🩵

I made a couple comments yesterday about how our sub was no worse than many of the other snark subs that are allowed to remain on Reddit. But, snarking aside, do you know what’s even crazier? The Red Pill sub, which is a male supremacist sub that promotes toxic masculinity, misogyny, antifeminism, and r*pe culture through discussions on how to “get” women, is still allowed to remain on Reddit. It’s been quarantined since 2018, but it still exists and isn’t even that hard to find.

Those shit stains are allowed to continue their dangerous discourse that contributes to a society where women would rather be alone with a random bear than a random man, but god forbid we snark on a privileged influencer who lied, cheated, and stole to get to where she is today. It’s a fucking joke.

I love how much people are calling her out on SI only asking because of Knix being the sponsor. So you were asked a few weeks ago… and Knix randomly decides to suddenly be a sponsor just weeks before the event? Then ALL the graphics, website, media kits, banners, posters, and literally everything that includes the sponsor’s names gets magically redone, approved, and printed in that tiny span of time? Yeah ok. 🙄 People aren’t stupid, but she might be if she thinks Knix wasn’t involved from the start to set this up for her.

I RAN here!!!! I had to read the post on Reddit twice I thought the lemmy.ca was a joke lol

I don’t know if her arrogance has increased because of the Reddit shutdown or if it’s because she thinks she is a Super Model but it’s next level.

Hey all, long-time Lemmy user who spotted this community on my All feed.

So, first of all, welcome to the fediverse! I hope this isn't information overload, but I thought it'd be useful for you if I went over a few basic terms here, what they mean, and a big overview of how all this works.

First of all, your "instance" is lemmy.ca. An instance is kinda analogous to how an email server works. A Gmail user can email a Yahoo user just as easily as another Gmail user: same idea here. I'm on sh.itjust.works, a different instance run by a different admin, different mod team, different rules. But that doesn't stop me seeing communities (the equivalent of subreddits) and being able to post/comment/reply/vote in any of your stuff!

The fediverse takes this concept one step bigger. Mastodon users can see/reply/post/etc into Lemmy as well from their own accounts on very different platforms. Same with Friendica, Kbin, Diaspora, Soundstorm, Peertube, etc. All of these different platforms with different features and focuses, but we're all connected via an underlying protocol that allows us to all talk to eachother.

And the best part? Because of the separation of instances, no one person or organization can single-handedly make gigantic platform ruining decisions. A hypothetical Lemmy version of Spez would just end up killing their own instance as everybody migrates their user accounts to instances that aren't run by crazy people. There's even quite a few people who run their own tiny one person instances so they are quite literally their own admins.

As someone who put in many many hours answering questions and getting people acclimated during Reddit's APIocalypse, please don't hesitate to ask if there's something you'd like to know about Lemmy or the fediverse as a whole.

I feel like an old person trying to work out this place but I’m here and dedicated. Let’s go 👊

I have been in a MOOD all day and the new Reddit sub being deleted within hours has me pissed. Is there a mole in the group?!?! Wtf.

Here from Reddit!!! Birdie has become a very cocky one since being home from her big debut as a swimsuit model 🤮

Whew being bounced from group to group over on the R site, and then being so confused at the name of this platform. Like it took me a hot minute to figure it all out. 😭😭😭

Grateful to the Mod who sent me the link. 🫶🏽

Here from Reddit. So annoyed at the lengths we have to go to for free speech.

Here from Reddit ✌️

Here from reddit! Thank you for doing the work to het us all back together!

I made it!! Lol

queerlyyoursamanda also started a CDNInfluencersIRL as well. Not many there but still up for now. Hopefully mods win the appeal. But seriously, why is she so bothered by it. Does it not look worse for her fighting it so hard?

Welcome aboard. Love seeing new niche communities, especially snarky ones

I'm so glad to see a new place we can convene. She doesn't deserve to get off that easy ✌️

Former redditor refugee. Glad we found a safe space.

The name of this site! Hahaha oh man 😅 So glad we have somewhere to convene. I missed us! 💗

Here from Reddit . Her posts today are crazy.

Yeah f u Reddit ! Can’t believe it got taken down. We need to let everyone know about this page.

Wow,she’s making us work for it, but I’m glad I’m here. Thank you for getting us here!

There is a new private Reddit group The Birds a Liar-a link to request to join is in the Jillian Harris snark post “we are alive”. Apparently previous pages tried to cut and paste the rules from the old site and this one is brand new. We’ll see what happens. Good to have this “Lemmy” as a back up.

I don't know what you're all about but lemmy is rad

Thank you for making this!
