We need to build local state-specific communities on 50501 Lemmy here!

Organizers, Coordinators & Liaisons:

Please create a thread on your state specific communities and you will get access to build a community here! (There will be additional checks to confirm)

See and connect with state organizers already on here by expanding the State Community List | Organizers title in the sidebar!

Here's a Short Tutorial

Lets get decentralized and away from centralized platform!

Suggestion to use MLMYM to offer Optional Interface that Looks Like Old Reddit (lemmy.ml)

With a likely increase of people here from Reddit, might be helpful to use this to offer a old.50501.chat domain so people have something familiar

See what it looks like on some instances:

"Don't Be A Sucker" An anti-fascist propaganda film produced by the US Army Signal Corps in 1943, which describes how Hitler gained power through hate, which has become relevant in present times. (spectra.video)

How Hitler used hate to gain power and that its not worth it to fall for hate. Worth a watch, you can even do a movie night on it maybe, its scary.

Thank you for creating a Lemmy instance! (50501.chat)

Thank you for this! I've been wanting to contribute to the movement, but Reddit won't let me post with a VPN. :<

Could you put the announcement post back up at Reddit? I don't think many people noticed it, I'd like the Lemmy instance linked in the fiftyfifty.one website too.

Poll: Mirror Comments From /r/50501 or No? (strawpoll.com)

Select between whether to mirror the comment from /r/50501 subreddit or just have our own comments here

EDIT: Due to the results of the poll—comments are not posted now to encourage local lemmy comments.

Can't create a comment on the recent poll, so I will make a post. (50501.chat)

Response to https://50501.chat/post/12085

I'd say that we should not mirror Reddit comments if our comments will not be mirrored to the subreddit. It will not allow for Lemmy users to give their thoughts on the sub's posts because it would be hard to find Lemmy comments. But afaik, the mirror only saves posts for 15 to 30 days? With that restriction, it might be slightly pointless to not mirror comments.

I would like to be able to cooperate with the people on Reddit, but it might not be a good idea to mirror Lemmy posts/comments either because Reddit might crack down on it. Hoping for screencaps though.

If you wanted to see comments from Reddit, you could go to Reddit directly or use a privacy front-end like Redlib. (If you are gonna use that, I'd recommend the LibRedirect add-on!)
