Welcome. We don’t call ourselves lemmings. The preferred term is lemons.

[–] snake_case@feddit.uk 13 points 1 year ago (4 children)

What's u/spez going to do now that life has given him lemons?

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

burn his fricking house down.

[–] Dirk@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Demand to speak to life's manager!

[–] Gast@feddit.nl 4 points 1 year ago

Does he have a Lemmy account yet?

[–] EeeDawg101@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Probably have a lemon party. Hey hoooo!

[–] RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Speak for yourself. I'm a lemming and proud of it. They're cute.

[–] ShadyGrove@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And a group of lemons is referred to as a lemon party.

Good God almighty, it was something that I'll rather not remember. Thanks!

I'm still waiting for my data dump before I take the leap. Filed a request a couple of days before the protests started. I want all my saved posts and comments, at least.

Shreddit my account yesterday. Fun time ;)

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I did that and Reddit restored all my content again after running the script in 10 second intervals to avoid the API limit.

I’ve resorted to manually overwriting all posts with unhinged rants about eggs from ChatGPT. They’re holding up nicely.

I'm legitimately surprised I haven't seen this meme format for the reddit migration before today.

[–] h_a_r_u_k_i@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Mayday is coming. I would expect there will be a lot of posts like these tomorrow (1st July).

[–] Xer0@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Classic meme template.

[–] tarneo@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You deleted all posts and comments, right?

Right?

[–] Octopus1348@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I edited the comments, so they can't restore it, deleted the posts.

[–] tarneo@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Great! Exactly what I did too, I'm keeping my account until they make the API changes and will participate in the flood of data deletion requests :-)
