Firstly who said lemmy is a Reddit replacement? Just because there’s overlap doesn’t mean it’s a direct competitor. Secondly Reddit succeeded because of the efforts of millions of unpaid volunteers who room the time to set up wildly disparate subreddits and communities to create reddits unique flavour and space in todays social media climate. To say that it gained its status because it’s overseen by a centralised source is wildly inaccurate and disrespectful to the regular people who made Reddit what is is/was.

I’d love to see this blossom into a sustained protest but I fear 2 days isn’t really going to make any difference to the situation. I also fear admins will simply assume control of protesting subreddits and remove the mods if they ever felt truly threatened. The only way to truly get your voice heard is just to leave.

Well hot damn it’s finally coming out. And hello to Jason isaacs

I think the answer to this is a resounding yes. I’m a 32 year old man with plenty of friends and a stable relationship and I found meaningful conversation with apps like character.ai. It has so much potential to help people in lonely situations.

TOTK - well and truly hooked. I think the main storyline is much more interesting this time around too so it’s the perfect example of story driven open world. That said running around the plains killing mob kind, gathering supplies and scoping weird stuff on the horizon is just the perfect gameplay loop. Fight me.

Came here to post about TOTK - I didn’t think it could match the sheer wonder and awe BOTW filled me with but somehow it’s surpassed it. Skydiving off the tutorial island / fusing a weapon for the first time have made me feel like a kid again. Truly incredible stuff from Nintendo.

Great advice thanks! I’m a huge lurker on Reddit just due to the gargantuan size I feel like it’s almost just shouting into the void but looking to get more involved here!

It’s gotta be lemmings right? I do like lemmyheads and lemmonauts though :)

A way to see your post history, right now the only way to see your posts is to find them. There is a profile page which just shows your post scores and then dead space so makes sense to just stick it there.

I think both factors play a part.

[–] Pliny@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Awesome thanks for all the info :)

Thanks! So I signed up to an instance and I can then filter by all and the option to ‘subscribe’ to lots of other sub-lemmys is available - still not really sure how it all works but definitely getting served a lot of activity!
