Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Lagpas dalawang linggo na pala ang community na ito dito.

I've been checking Lemmy almost ever since the weekend just before the blackouts, replacing Reddit as my addiction (of sorts). I've also managed to subscribe to a good number of communities, such that my feed is now quite healthy with content. I almost never get the urge to browse Reddit anymore, not even with all the mention of it in my feed.

How about you guys? Kamusta naman ang Lemmy experience ninyo thus far?

It's been slow for lemmy communities to form. Partly na rin siguro madami parin fence sitters sa reddit debacle up until July I suppose. Kaunti palang nasasalihan kong communities tho.

Pansin ko lang, nag nose dive na moderation sa rph. I don't know if it's just me but the posts are all over.

Pansin ko lang, nag nose dive na moderation sa rph. I don’t know if it’s just me but the posts are all over.

Not wanting to toot my own horn but some of this is me, I think. I'm very unforgiving of low-effort posts that could be answered with just one reply. Tipong topics that belong in the Help Thread or already been asked/addressed several times before. Makukulong ka ba if hindi mo binayaran yung 800 pesos na balance sa PLDT or takbuhan mo Anytime Fitness membership. Best earphones for 200 pesos na goods na goods. IT o Accounting, ano kukunin ko na course? Innova o Avanza?

Karma farm or redundant threads bwisit rin kami. Yung mga "Ako lang ba naiinis sa utang na loob", "What's your favorite pancit canton?", "Toxic Filipino Culture", tinatanggal ko na lang without any explanation, lol.

The last month or so we were very consistent with this to the point na yung mga threads na otherwise matatabunan papunta sa third page, get a chance to shine. A good example was DENR planting the wrong Mangrove specie — it only had 11 replies on its first day and mushroomed to 195 in just a few days.

“What’s your favorite pancit canton?”

LMAO. I had to stop myself from flaming the Piattos flavor thread. If the mods really are quietly stepping away, I fully support it. We didn't get the chance to troll protest like the other cool subs. I guess this is my consolation.
