A Request to the Fediverse Community

[email protected]

say, I hear you do something similar, Pug Jesus.

I am trying to. I just found about lemmy today.

Can someone recommend me some other stuff?

[email protected]

I've also been posting less after managing to upset someone. We can have a club. The shy posters club.

[email protected]

I cannot express how much respect I hold for instance owners, you're doing something great! Maybe one day I'll follow in your footsteps (when I step up from small game servers :P). Say, would those dead communities qualify for a post in c/abandonedarchitecture?

As Someone Somewhere, I urge you to post more.

Recommend Lemmy communities, or other Fediverse alternatives (like Mastodon as a replacement for Twitter, the same way Lemmy replaces Reddit)?

[email protected]

I've only just managed to overcome my membership in the shy posters club haha! Hey, keep a seat warm for me while I'm away, okay?

[email protected]

press send on that post that you felt wasn't of enough substance to be worth anyone's time.

I feel like you vastly underestimate the amount of subpar shitposts I'm capable of composing (and then thinking better of) in a given day.

Despite my seniority around these parts (first started an interest in lemmy around 2022) I'm not too tied into the community around here. I'd reccomend just subscribing to some interesting large communities, communities around your interests and whatever community would be best for whatever pops into your mind! If you'd like, feel free to message me and we can throw around ideas of what could be right for you!

I go through a cycle for this. I leave Reddit because I hate it. And then I go here and well it's quite obvious it's a certain type of people who are willing to jump through hoops and use the fediverse. I find most of the opinions here to be a little bit too extreme for my taste. I just want to discuss football (soccer) and tech...

But I agree with you. It only feels empty because we all decide to not hit "post".

I cannot believe this account is two years old and not made just for this comment haha.

I'm exactly the same, here's hoping we'll pave the way for many more like us, hey?

Also, I find a nice way to fill my feed is to liberally subscribe to communities on Lemmy. I'm currently subscribed to 133. I set my feed to Subscribed+Scaled and that works incredibly well to show me what I care about. Then when I get bored, I flip to All+TopDay to get what I missed that day.

I am SO thankful that there are so many people out there working on projects such as this! I gained lots of momentum in the past weeks protecting my privacy and taking digital matters back in my own hands, i wouldn't have come so far if it wheren't for all the other people who have been doing this for years! Thanks everyone

Make a nice poster that encourages people to not just lurk, or dig one up if there's an old post. Post it weekly in [email protected]

[email protected]

yes and I don't mind you can mention other Fediverse alternatives

[email protected]

great advice, thank you! We need some more people like you around here

[email protected]

On one hand yeah! But on the other, I'm not fully sure we want the Reddit chain of comments that add nothing to the conversation?

[email protected]

I think I just might!

I have one, i will see to it.
