And since Lemmy is already at, iirc, the 200,000 mark, and is only part of the greater fediverse... I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't feel lonely here.
I understand that lemon essential oil is flammable.
Welcome aboard! We have beans! Also, I saw a fellow lemming giving out Lemmy lemons, so those, too. (Someone from kbin is going to have to help me out with their team's memes...)
Paying for porn is a good way to get quality porn, IMO, because you support the people making what you like. But if you're not picky, I suppose it doesn't matter. Whatever floats your goat.
Yes, seriously. In the announcement, they made a point to restate the fine print that says "no refunds."
This might actually be a good time to invite people from Reddit, while the new unpopular decisions are still fresh in people's minds...
This is definitely a thing. I don't like making a comment or post that has already been made 80 times, and I'm used to that being the case. Once I get used to the fact that I might be the first one to post something (and possibly the only one who wants to, lol), I will probably get used to posting regularly.
I expect them to move chat functionality to the official app. Facebook made a similar move many years ago, and I think they did get increased access to users' phones that way. Reddit might find it a harder sell, given that they have a totally different role in people's lives, and (much as I hate to imply anything nice about Facebook), a much less usable app.
Same. It might take a minute to curate for the specific news you want, but there are plenty of communities providing substantive news at least daily.
This is a great point, and a great link. Reddit doesn't understand the extent to which "user goodwill" in general and "moderator goodwill" in particular were crucial to its business model. Without them, it's not going to make any difference what they do, profits will not, as Huffman put it, "arrive."
(Relatedly, what a revealing way to put it. Huffman obviously thought he was sitting on a heap of static assets he could tap into for quick profits instead of a dynamic system he could have cultivated for a rich harvest. Too late now for either, I expect, though he may catch the dregs if he's lucky).
Here are some cat communities for you: !illegallysmolcats@lemmy.world !cats@midwest.social !aww@lemmy.ml
