BuT WherES aLL My KaRMA?!? /s
fucking happy to be here!
Welcome. I think you will like it here. We’re kind of like reddit except we aren’t trying to make money from you, or your content. And we are more likely to follow the golden rule. And swear. Lots of swearing.
DOZENNNNNSSSSSS
Be mindful of the smug “Lemmy Culture” hipsters, they’ll eventually weed themselves out or self segregate though as more normies flow in.
I welcome the masses.
Same!
Hi diddly ho neighborino
Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
How come theres been an influx of users recently? Did reddit shit the bed again?
Yes they started banning thousands of active users for “inciting violence” if you say things like “fuck Elon musk” or “my favorite character in super Mario bros is Luigi”
I still don’t understand this whole Luigi thing…
You mean you weren’t familiarised with the Luigi Mangione story?
This is my first post, on my first day here, and it feels pretty good.
Here, have some beans.
We don’t do pay-a-social-media-ceo-to-win around here, we do beans. Practical, eatable, 100% all natural digital beans.
Some other users may be able to gift you a proper lemmy kilmister commerative gold token, but I don’t have the jpg.
EDIT: oh right, a possibly useful warning:
About a month or two ago, lemmy seems to have attracted its first mass spam bot, dming thousands of users with basically a phising email.
If you get a message from ‘Fediverse Chick’, that’s not her, someone stole her image, just block the user.
It’s kind of a rush picking a username knowing most are still available.
Nicknames are per instance so your favourites are always available somewhere.
I know! I hadn’t even thought of that until I saw someone’s was like “mee” and now I need to get another account. It’s like how people get caught off guard when I tell them my 20 year old email is just my name with no numbers or special characters.
Haha it’s great because there’s always another instance where your username will be available.
Or you can choose to be something different on each instance.
I just came over from Reddit too. It took me a day to settle in and understand how federation worked but now it makes total sense to me.
Start posting stuff with us welcome welcome everyone :)
Just be warned, those dozens are all actually one person.
It’s me. I just enjoy talking to myself so much I made lemmy
He is I and I am him
Slim with the tilted brim, what’s my motherfuckin’ name?za-ba-do-hiiiiii-hi-hi
Welcome to Lemmy. Here’s your Molotov, the guillotine is just down the hall. First left.
Let’s be real, we ain’t touching grass, let alone take action.
Actually I volunteer in a community centre
Honestly I’d expect more action for Lemmy than left leaning Reddit accounts just cause people here have taken steps to make a difference
