For real we need more uplifting subs, my feed is just Musk and Trump diarrhea.
be the change you want to see. Post and upvote.
Lemmy is more polished and populated now than before. Hope influx stays and we got all the real people from reddit and bots stay there.
Downloading an app instead of using the web gui helped me a lot, almost gave up on Lemmy couple days ago. But some of these apps are so well made. Really shows commitment
Reddit refugee here. Can I say Luigi?
Can you say Luigi lol. Son, you're required to pledge allegiance to Luigi before every post you make here.
And we love you for it❤️
Yay!!! Let’s go :)
Yeah in a few days I'm going to delete my Reddit account, liking this place so far, you get news and genuine discussion.
Don't close it. Get permabanned instead. Make those fuckers miserable.
Please keep it, it can be useful to promote Lemmy a bit, like we do on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Glad that you like it here!

I'll just say, the more I hang around Lemmy, the more I enjoy the genuine conversations. It feels like less snark, less joke replies, and just a generally more community-type feeling. Reminds me of when I first tried Reddit after leaving Digg way back when.
Hopefully, us exiles can leave the Reddit back at Reddit.
I like a lot of things here better than Reddit. For one thing, I don't see the stupid buzzwords like literally or cringe in 98% of all posts. There's no hivemind here...yet. And hopefully there won't be.
Also not the same 5 memes repeated for 15 years.
I feel the exact same, and I’ve been hanging around here for almost two years (the great 3rd party app exodus of ‘23).
This place feels more like a community filled with people versus a firehose of internet wrapped in layers of corporate and right wing BS.
Reddit was almost exclusively read-only for me. Here, I am commenting all the time.
This is one of the reasons I stayed. It was still small enough back then that you actually started to recognize people you had conversations with, and not just the troll farms.
I find a bunch of snark here, but it absolutely feels more genuine. With reddit it felt like half the comments I saw were from bots. More than half, maybe.
I hate everyone on lemmy but at least I'm hating people
Aw. We hate you too.
You know it's bad for Reddit when people were even talking about going back to Digg
Digg still exists?
MAU? Mostly Anal Users? Martian Appalachian Upholstery? Mass Ass Underwear? Missing Alligator Utensils? Moldy Apple Uterus? Massive Arctic Uranus?
Monthly Average Users
as opposed to DAU (Daily) or WAU (Weekly)
For a live product, the number of average users / time is a pretty telling metric.
I wonder what the arc will look like this time.

I'm in this picture and I like it!
Woo! That's awesome. I am seeing quite a few more people.
We are already successful, I'm seeing stories, news articles, and videos that normally would never get pushed to the top. We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.
