Community to discuss the DRSGME.org project and resources, and how to spread DRS advocacy and information to GameStop investors around the world.

Have a great idea to spread the word? There are some resources here to get started!

DRS numbers are based on Cede & Co from now on.

We do NOT know the true DRS count as GameStop will never directly implicate Cede in a crime, nor would Cede ever send a bigger number than they should.

People saying the movement has "fissiled out" are intentionally misleading you. Lemmy is filled to the brim with inorganic anti-GME rhetoric. Esp Lemmy.world content (anti-GME, anti-DRS, anti-NFT, anti tokenized securities)

We're at upwards of 85-90M DRS per the bot which has been incredibly accurate so far.

I was correct that this quarter would "barely move" upward. We're at the CUSP of the math not mathing out on Cede's end.

If youv want YOUR shares to be there for you, DRS them.

Don't worry about everyone else.

completely agree with you!!!!! And I like how your thinking

Pointing out that Lemmy is a software app. Anyone can install it on their own server or join an instance that's already up.

The content is separate, unlike Reddit there is no typical Lemmy poster profile, other than more technically and privacy oriented than a Facebook slave.

Just like how blogs on wordpress might be different and say different things. Wordpress is downloadable from wordpress.ORG and you install it yourself. Or you pay wordpress.COM to host your blog for you. The content has nothing to do with wordpess, it's just a posting tool.

Likewise with this Lemmy instance very likely. The admins could have been more crafty and called this subdomain larry or hetty, or even Sue after that boy in the Johnny Cash song. Then it would have been harder for Reddit admins to find and quash links to it since they are just dumb stormtroopers. The admins here could still do that with Domain Forwarding if they wanted to. And they could keep adding more forwards to baffle the myrmidons.

@[email protected], have you considered what this user is proposing? It would make sense that if you obfuscated a forwarding link, we could bring more people over from Reddit.

They at least can't auto-ban the links right-out.

Reddit accounts w/ this much karma cost MAYBE $20, I'm willing to throw water on the SS fire if it makes people wake up about DRS.

We can't switch the domain after Federating without breaking all posts and comments, but it's true that there might be other ways to help spread the availability of the platform.

I want to mention here that Reddit admins have not shown that there is any issue with discussing Lemmy as a platform. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lemmy is a fairly active sub for folks just starting to learn about this alternative.

However - individual subreddits can make their own policy decisions. On r/Superstonk, the word "lemmy" triggers automod and can not be commented. That was added shortly after this instance was publicly launched.

Emphasis on this -- it's the Superstonk mods themselves who've taken this step. Mentioning lemmy risks a permaban from the sub now. They don't want the Apes to escape their cage.

This is what I was originally referring to, not changing the subdomain.

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

Ah, gotcha! A redirect could be set up by anyone, it wouldn't have to be us. Using something like TinyURL would probably work for someone interested in trying this.

That said - I would encourage people to make their own decisions about that kind of outreach. As I mentioned above, some subreddits may view that kind of sharing as a violation of their policy which can result in bans, and that is outside of our control.

I am so glad Lemmy is growing steadily and people are coming to a place where admin and mod actions have built in transparency and accountability.

I'm sure you're afraid to directly brigade (or maybe even just directly SAY to brigade), but with your addition to the DRSGME site, it seems you may not really have a choice in which side you pick here. Sure it doesn't have to be your team, but it would certainly make more sense to facilitate something like this.

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

I think it's good for people to engage with the community however they would like. You're probably not the only one who thinks that kind of advocacy campaign would be helpful! We're working on adding new resources to the DRSGME.org and WhyDRS.org sites that can help educate about Lemmy as well, and bring more people interested in open conversation towards this platform.

I feel like if a person is following this saga but has not caught on to the fact that Superstonk is heavily biased (compromised) then they aren't going to have the mental aptitude or fortitude to DRS their shares (assuming they 'have' any in the first place.) I may be cynical.

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

ha, the admins could call it 'kenny' if they want it to not get flagged by Reddit admins.

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

Whoops, I think you may be misinterpreting the spreadsheet and graph I put together. I'll rename the labels some and pick a less "Computershare purple" color in this week's graph to clarify more.

I wanted to highlight that just 200k Computershare accounts owned 75.5 million DRS shares. And these 200k CS accounts also have a conservative 25% more shares stuck in IRA accounts (not DRS'd). So 75.5 million DRS'd and 18.9 million stuck in IRA accounts. Rather than 85-90 million DRS'd in Computershare.

I was trying to convey that just 200k CS accounts hold 75.5 million DRS and 18.9 million in IRA accounts. And the "remaining 62 million shares" likely doesn't add up if we think about the total number of retail brokerage, margin, and IRA accounts holding GME.

I want to point out I definitely didn't mean to point it your way.

I appreciate the effort you put into that!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could you point me to an example of fhe anti-GME rhetoric here on Fedi? And if they are why don't you just block them? Also Who is the "people" you refer on your post? Honestly I don't understand the purpose of your post. Are you looking validation for your believes/actions? You were correct about this quarter numbers, Good. So do I. But hey, little secret, retail has no more money left to keep buying and DRS as we saw in the beginning. If you have any New content you want to discuss plz feel to share here.

PS: You do wathever you want but stop screming Shills to anything that doesnt align with your views.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Plenty of comments saying DRS is slowing. That is just NOT the case. It's so much cheaper to DRS right now, and apes are an average of 40-fucking years old.

These "kids" aren't the ones struggling in these inflationary times. White collar feeling no effect from the economic climate is why we're well past 80M DRS per the bot

Ok. Do you believe in DRS? So just DRS your shares, block the shills and keep with your life.
"You can lead a horse to the water but you can't make it drink."

Did you found any relevant and verfied contend? Plz share with us.
Do you have any question you'd like to ask others? Just ask, I am sure there are plenty of ppl here ready to help you.

Ok, let's be honest. You, me and all others got on this play about MOSS. I didn't give a flying fuck about GME before DFV. I got on the FOMO train as all of you. We are all on the Red, except a few that got on board recently. We all want to be right, but right now is not about MOSS anymore. It's about recovering the losses. Don't came with the potential until you sell shit. I did invested what I can aford to lose but boy does it hurts? Da fuck it does.
Did anyone forced me to get here? Absolutly not.100% my responsability.

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

We are not all in the red my guy.. My cost average (now that it was 1/4) is <$1 lol. But I've constantly been UPPING my cost-basis because I want more of the stock. "FOMO" train was never that. All of the real apes knew this would take years. Even them burning 4.5B a year in shorts gives them a pretty good while before bankruptcy. This was NEVER a get-rich-quick scheme.

Everything YOU say feels so shilly to me. Your comment history reads like a "don't be sadddd guyssss it's all gooodd." Man... Fuck off w/ this energy.

DRS isn't letting up by any means, it's being intentionally obfuscated. And I'm fairly certain you already know that.
