Just noticed that it shows how many days ago I joined. The babies are taking over this thread. This is a baby-thread now.

I gotta say, I respect what Lemmy does and hope it succeeds, and I think it's a good place for discussions and such (and I will remain), but good god if this place isn't unfunny as hell. I'm struggling real hard to find some place with actually funny content on here, which leads to me getting exceedingly riled up by politics.
Aye People, recommend me some funny communities!
One of the problems with the way federation currently works is if I block US politics on one instance, I still get it en masse from other instances.
Before activity pub, all that duplication of threads would’ve been handled by moderators merging them together. Actually, it wouldn’t even have been so necessary since userscan see the existing thread and just post underneath that.
When blocking a community, we really need a check box to allow us to block the same community on all instances.
It's better than it was a year ago so hopefully with more ex-Redditors it'll diversify even more
I mean, there are communities for funny stuff, but at least speaking of the ones I stumble upon on my main feed, a significant portion of the funny posts is rather old/recycled. Could be just my feed, though.
Unless there are communities I've missed, all the bigger communities post stuff one degree removed from advice animals. Maybe I need to look for the smaller communities
Lets make this a new reddit but better!
What constitutes an active user? Is a new lurker like myself counted or is there a threshold of minimum action needed to be counted?
Upvotes or comments count.
How many people use reddit
97.2 million daily active users
Fuck Reddit and fuck Trump!
Have you got banned from reddit like me?
My 14 year old account was permabanned for making a joke about someone Luigi Mangione-ing Trump. I made another account and they banned that one too. Sounds like the elites are getting a little nervous. Reddit had been getting shittier for a while anyway, excited to see what Lemmy does!
Yeah. All I said was fuck Trump anally. I got permanently banned. Account of 10 years.
Fucking assholes. Welcome 😄
🙏
I will shitpost harder.
I'm doing my part!
Same. Someone’s gotta help feed the modlog.
I love how the mod log is so accessible for all to see.
One of my largest pain points with Lemmy is that there are multiple active communities for the same topic, causing quite a few duplicate posts to show up in my feed that is difficult to filter. Hopefully there comes some kind of solution, outside of userbase, this is (what I believe) one of the larger issues compared to Reddit.
However, I still switched over to Lemmy for my primary 'Reddit'-needs.
Lemmy needs a "all" option for communities with the same name so you can, for instance, browse across all the fediverse's gaming communities.
jerboa lets me see a weighted feed from all posts the instance can see
Piefed is a Lemmy "competitor" that actually does some sort of "multi comm" combined view type of functionality
Piefed.social
It's not mature yet, but last I heard interoperability was mostly ok, though had oddities
I am ready to give up Reddit, we need more communities to move here!
