I really hope this becomes the defacto forum for this community. I've been dabbling in the Lemmyverse and it seems like the most appropriate solution at this time. Not only am I suspicious of Twitter/X, but it is a terrible design for forum-like interaction - in that regard Reddit's format really is ideal, and that's what Lemmy has emulated.

MODERATORS
I'm working with ppseeds to set up a dedicated Lemmy server that isn't dependent on any external arbiter.
this is the best news i've heard all day. this is the ideal solution. An internet community that is owned and operated and administered by the community participants, not some centralized authority.
Nobody can deplatform you when you are your own platform host. it takes work but the reward is autonomy and freedom to communicate.
@[email protected] is the instance administrator for that instance and has already gained experience in the business of hosting a lemmy instance. you could possibly reach out to them if you have any questions or are looking for direction.
Thanks - I'm hoping other experts step up to help run this, I have a day job that is fairly busy

Further, I'll say this community should no longer the "property" of PP, but the collective we've become. We are all individual investors making our own decisions & enjoying this unique community of people, not PPseeds himself - in fact I've watched maybe 5 minutes of the show ever; can't stand it, and certainly don't have time to listen to 4hrs of BS for maybe a few minutes of solid content. This community, though, is special. Nowhere else that I've found allows for big-picture discussions outside of specific stock tickers, and I do appreciate the GME/Butterfly/IEP (and more) theories & tinfoil.
Again, fuck Twitter/X. Any links to that awful platform should be through nitter.net like a condom.
I often don't have 4 hours for dildo slaps, but they are funny as fuck. I do have infinite time for some Region_Formal blue boxes, Travis's accounting depth or Dr. Jakes insights into logic flows to an outcome, so I prefer the written to the show for actual deep DD, but love the show for the people, the insights and the speculation.
What is this community about? What happened?
Reddit nuked sub which was getting millions of views daily. Sub is mostly discussing stock ticker bbbyq and the potential behind it. Community has not been informed why specifically it was banned but at this point who cares. Fuck Reddit.
Hell yeah, I been here since the summer. It's more niche, it's more cozy feeling, less populated, but it functions the same. It's a decent alternative to the spezler website
Palladium Tarnish or some other not-real person felt like they were being attacked because their online persona that isn't them in real life started to feel like their anonymous online persona was actually real and being attacked by people on X, so the most logical thing to do is ban them on another platform.

I never knew about lemmy but it's awesome to get away from fucking reddit.
Thank you Ross! For those that don't know DRSyourGME was also banned from reddit and have taken refuge here:https://lemmy.whynotdrs.org/
nice to see the Lemmy lifeboat
It’s rare for any event to spur me into action. This did it though. Reddit app deleted and am joining every backup community I come across.
Great work Ross. Thanks for creating this community here.
I was just about to respond to your comment on Reddit but that thread was locked before I could.
Ross, could you please go on the pp show live stream tonight and bring up the discussion of Lemmy?
by the way the link you provided did not work, you'll want to use: https://lemmy.world/c/theppshow
Also wouldn’t hurt to mention the whynotdrs lemmy instance on the show as well since it’s about mainly bbby as well as gme. Cheers all! 🦍💜🦍

So, Is this the new PPshow?
Honestly, it has to be multiplatform going forward. This is one place, twitter is another, but we also need to use pastebin for DD that we don't want Sparkled into oblivion

Fuck yes Ross. This is such a better format than X
Since third party apps were blocked, ppshow was the only subreddit I frequently visited. No need for the Reddit app anymore now.
Thanks for putting this together so quickly Mr. Ross Boss!
Gotta use those tech skills before they atrophy...
I’ve no idea how I got here, but I’m excited to see what happens next LFG!
How the F$&× ya doin Ross!! Thanks for making the quick switch! No way nuking the sub two days before American families get together for Thanksgiving is a mistake..
This feels right. Thanks Ross
Sup my PP beaches!!
I have arrived!! Can’t stop the movement! Let’s go boys and gals!!
you go to another place and .... THERE YOU HAVE IT!
Fuck Reddit. Glad to be here.
Fuck Reddit
Shit, of all people, if I made it this far, then the fuckin SHF and shills are truly in deep fuckin trouble! LFG!
let's go!
Thanks Ross for setting us up a DECENTRALIZED and thus uncensorable home. I'm here to stay :)
Our new home. Feels weird having been booted from sstonk over a year ago and subsequently banned from reddit for pissing off someone "important" shortly thereafter.
Thanks for setting this up, hey_ross!
I don’t have a twitter/x account either, so hopefully this is the place.
Thanks for doing this, Ross. I really prefer Lemmy over Twitter. Hopefully it gains some traction.
Yay great to see my favourite community on Lemmy now!! ❤️
About time!!
LFG PP's
LFG! Get this Lemmy page out there boys, this is the way!
Hey Ross :-) welcome PP's, it is everyone responsibility to make our new home splendid
and Shreddit
Thanks Ross!
