I think rexxit is the catalyst to get the platform ready. I don't think rexxit is a one and done thing. It's gonna be more of a constant trickle, and lemmy is in a very good place to absorb more users. I browsed /r/all today, and saw many comments of people saying the frontpage sucks because there's no content. Spez might like to pretend there's no impact to reddit, but there's certainly going to be a big impact at least in the near term.

Just make sure to go back in a day or two to make sure your comments/posts stay deleted. Reddit restored all my posts/comments that I edited using Power Delete Suite back to their original content.

That’s any interesting idea. Curious to see if it would work.

May be they already realize it, meaning, they saw all the popular communities already created here, and would much rather stay there as mods.

I didn't know api changes means 3rd party apps no longer can show nsfw content. Nobody's going to pay a subscription and not be able to see stuff that they can see on the official app. Looks like reddit is giving all 3rd party app developers a shitty deal whichever way you cut it.

Yeah I wouldn't have ever signed up for lemmy if this api thing hadn't come about. This is my first fediverse experience. I was pissed at reddit, but now I don't care about reddit one way or another. Lemmy has gained enough users to sustain itself even if there is no more mass migration. There is an active community here that will help lemmy grow organically over time.

Their posts don't seem to deviate much from their usual posts. Target achieved, I guess?

Is there a reason why they're doing this? Blackout's not even political. They just want to be contrarian to everything.

nice. Sounds similar to some flowers with nectar deep inside so that the bees have to get pollen all over them by reaching deep inside.

Looks like one of those carnivorous plants. Does it serve any purpose for the plant to look like this?

[–] feetongrass@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

Thank you! That makes total sense. I'll let them know. On a different note, reddit is(was?) my go to spot for stuff like this where I need advice on something I don't know much about. I made this post here instead of reddit, and wanted to see if the fediverse is truly a reddit replacement. I'm glad to see that it already is.

Right, but I've seen tons of comments that say "I'll at least use the mobile site instead of your app". If they do this now, then those people will just leave. Plus, blocking mobile site is a dumb move.

 

I don’t remember the name of these plants, but I’m betting you people can identify no problem. They were both bought at the same time but one of them is dying. It was initially on the other side of the door. They thought maybe the sun was killing it and moved it to the shade, but it doesn’t seem to me improving. Is it gone? Can it be brought back? Please advise.
