I just wanted to peek at the front page. I guess they don’t want people to use their shit anymore. I’m starting to believe in the dead internet theory.
Can you guys stop talking about your ex ? You’re with lemmy now, forget about the old bitch.
I’m all for staying here on Lemmy: Lemmings are nicer than Redditors and the place is a lot higher S/N ratio.
But… sadly, due to inertia, Reddit is still where a lot of stuff is squarely at. There are long-established Reddit communities - often nice, well behaved communities - that don’t give a toss about the Reddit drama, and are simply not interested in moving out.
I’ve been trying to kickstart an equivalent Reddit community here on Lemmy for almost a year. While there’s a handful of members, it’s basically just me infrequently posting in it. The original one on Reddit has almost 10K members, is fairly active, and clearly none of the members know anything about Lemmy - much less want to create an account and join my insignificant equivalent community. I keep it around in case Reddit enshittifies to such an extent that even those who don’t care start taking notice. But at the moment, inertia is much too strong.
which community? I tried to see if I could swing by to support your budding community whatever it is, so I had a look through your posts and couldnt see a community you moderate?
Strange because the first thing I see when I open my profile in a private window is that single community I moderate.
It’s nice of you to want to help but it’s the kind of community you typically join only when you’re unlucky enough to be concerned 🙂
haha yeah thats a pretty specific topic dude :) I’d say keep it up, someone who’d be happy to see it here will some day join lemmy and it’ll mean something to them
I hear you, when I look at my profile I see that I moderate https://lemm.ee/c/badreligion (same problem, thousands back on whatever its called and a few upvotes, but rarely a comment. time and patience; we’ll rule over c/ empires someday you and I
That’s actually a deprecation warning. You’re meant to move to a more modern platform.
I’m already here.
Are you using a vpn?
Lol yeah I can’t get on it at work anymore. Goodbye to all the traffic they get from people looking for tech advice on corporate networks. Fucking morons.
i’ve never had an office job but it’s extremely obnoxious they seem to regularly filter the internet like you’re in school. there were so so many important resources (including youtube) which had legitimate educational and technical value they’d take away as some bullshit austerity ritual
