I found a lot of good things on Lemmy... But, I can never go 'full-Lemmy', because I hate the politics crap.

Thank you! This is what I need. I prefer to block based on words rather than blocking the whole instance thing. :)

Tired of Reddit? Come to Lemmy! We got:
😂 Memes
🫘 Beans
👖 Jeans
🤡 Tankies
🚫 No pooping

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

We don't have beans, jeans, nor any posts about New Orleans. And we have to do something about those who defend the Stalingrad, because that's not something worth to brag.

Also star trek! So. Much. Star Trek

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 hours ago

You should use Linux and look at my programmer socks 👍

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

You seem to be implying that there's such a thing as too much trek, which is preposterous

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Too much? I won't hear of it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago

Truth is I have a themed alt account solely for posting trek memes, I'm here for it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 hours ago

More trek!!!

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

More mobile apps that you'll ever need

[–] [email protected] 13 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Should I stop working on my Lemmy app 😅

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

It's up to you! https://www.lemmyapps.com/

But now I feel like desktop/website UI would be more interesting, as there are few opions on that space.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

...what if I told you my app was a website, desktop app, and mobile app all in one. Still have a lot of work to do, and expect it to be best optimized for mobile, but I'm pretty confident I can launch with a better desktop experience then Voyager.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Sounds promising!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

I'm rooting for you!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago

No. I'll try it. I betcha others will too

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (3 children)

Care to list all the apps updated at least once in the last 2 months and without ads? Just asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Great link! You should post it 👌💫

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I just checked [email protected], it's still in the first 10 posts, hopefully people will see it there 😄

I'm a big fan of Eternity, and (I think) it's maintained. Hasn't broken for me at least.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

I'm posting from the app. So far it's working well, still, nice to have more alternatives.

Well, some pooping.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

Can someone make a version of this saying lemmy has no adds. I think that honestly is the best selling point for reddit users at this point.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (3 children)

Here you are.

Btw, the source file (SVG) is available on my Git repo on Codeberg ;)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Thanks for making this, and especially using an excellent design in a shareable meme format that pitches Lemmy simply to users.

One day we may need to have ads to pay the bills if we have another massive Reddit exodus. What are your thoughts on creating an alternate one that says something like “your data not tracked or sold”?

Thx.

I'm hostile to ads, fully and openly and I'd rather pay than be forced to look at ads. But that's just my personal opinion and I would not want to impose it on anyone. At least, I think that's also what freedom should mean: the freedom for anyone to disagree with me and me with anyone ;)

The first version of the file had no mention of ads (I simply deleted it by mistake ;) and you can get the SVG here.

Tout le plaisir est pour moi.
You're welcome. Even more so than you are perfectly right! Lemmy being ad-free is so f. good. While I was making that silly image, in a hurry in the middle of another job, I had a line about ads (I hate ads) but somehow managed to delete it :/

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Super image. Je vais envoyer ça chaque fois que mes amis m’envoyent un lien reddit ahah.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Une nouvelle forme de prosélytisme ha ha

Never understood this point. There's no way you can move your account (including full history) to another instance, right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 hours ago

The main point is being able to still access all of the communities if your admin goes rogue (similar to what Reddit is doing). That's possible on Lemmy, you export / import your settings and you're set.

Keep the same username, add a link to your new and old profiles and the bio, and you just moved instances. You may have lost your comments history, but there is no karma anyway, so why care? And it's still accessible on your old account.

It's true, not sure what you mean?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 hours ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

You're welcome!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

You're welcome.

Note that I just updated it to answer guaraguaito's remark regarding Lemmy being ad-free. Also, the SVG file is available for anyone to play with (it's SVG file, made with Inkscape, using the DejaVu Serif font)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

We maybe should downplay the 'no ads' thing. I can definitely see a day when ads are required to support some sites.

I like that we'll have a choice on that day, but I do see that day.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Here's a version without the ad

Ironically, it got added because someone in the comments wanted it

I agree. I think it’d be better to change that part to something like “your data not sold or tracked”.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

But what about the extremism?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

"Extremism" is a meaningless term used by supporters of the status quo to draw a false equivalence between fascists and their most vocal opponents.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 hours ago

Reddit is quite extreme nowadays too, and over there you don't have public modlogs
