September beeth eternal
For the past thirty two years, and counting.
I was there at the beginning. Just a wee Luser. Such fun and wonderful times for eleven year old me to be punted into.

I tried to join dbzer0 and got rejected without any reason—did I pick the wrong pirate (I liked Rackham on Black Sails)

Im new to Lemmy too. Happy to be here. :)
Happy to read you :)
Good, the Piracy community over on dbzer0 is much better than the subreddit anyways.
Everyone remember to be kind to the newbies, not assume that they immediately understand how the fediverse works, and not to talk about your favourite Linux distro until the second date
Also maybe try not to harass them about which instance they choose to join (unless it's a tanky one lmao), just try to educate them if the subject comes up. I think it's overwhelming to jump right away into "this instance has this problem, you should move to this other one"
I say this still not having moved from Lemmy.world

Teach them about beans.
And how to hold your poop in for a few days for... reasons.
I was there. In the ancient times.
You were there when the ancient texts were written, but remember, some of us were there when the alphabet was conceived.

2025 the year of lemmy
and the linux desktop
I switched fully over and am in the process of degoogling and de-microsofting my life. No more easy defaults of VS Code, back to custom configuring my emacs. No more surveillance, self-hosting and encryption. No more shitty windows gaming, Linux and Proton for gaming bliss!
I finally wiped the windows partition off my main home PC last week. Feels good, man.
Dam even switched over to Emacs. My dude you didn't have to go that far. :)

No love for jetbrains?
