Not a shocker, I’m down to play it, I liked the first one.

Yeah definitely, The post isn’t to shit on Lemmy. I find it more of a home here than whatever reddit was

Depends on the specs.

I loved the 970 it was my second upgrade.

Sure, but imagine how many money you’ve thrown over the years, I know I have thrown a LOT.

Trust me I know what’s living in a rural area is like US or not.

Don’t you have fiber available?

In a way it’s sad that people get scammed, on the other they had it coming. Same way with the poor people still voting for him

If I was Elon’s right hand man I’d be ashamed if people saw my face too. I’d much rather people know me for my kinks

Damn, I actually didn’t expect a story like that especially from how old your account was at that point.

Now I’m even more mad about Reddit heaaring those stories and I’m saying time and time again that Reddit has an AWFUL moderating system almost like it’s not there at all.

Don’t let those fake points though define you man, I also was making content SFW and NSFW, I was thinking alright if I’m in the r/presidents subreddit what is something engaging I can post, I used to think that a lot of karma was everything but eh in the end who cares.

I don’t disagree at all, and that’s the only thing I miss about Reddit, when I had an established profile and could just ask in whatever subreddit I want, emphasis on the “established profile” while Lemmy I started day 1 and I could instantly participate in wherever I wanted.

And sure Lemmy has like 40-50k monthly visitors, Imagine if it was 500k or 1M the good thing to give you hope, I didn’t know what Lemmy was about a month ago, and now I do

Wow dude so harsh

irony

I keep repeating the story of how I got banned on Reddit but I’ll keep doing so cause it’s funny, basically I uploaded an NSFW meme with nudity IN a NSFW meme community that allowed nudity, I don’t know what the bots saw maybe because the image was more in low res anyways basically the second I uploaded the meme it said “Your Post has been removed by Reddit’s filters” and I thought okay, not the first time. I refresh and got a permanent ban and I thought…

Why?

Jokes aside at least the good thing about reddit is that there were a lot of people that I became friends with and liked talking to on AskRedditAfterDark for example. Men and Women alike, so yeah women exist, shocker more news at 10

Liar my previous meme got like 600 upvotes where are you all coming from.

“Microsoft Says Copilot” is like a Two Sentence horror story for me now.

There’s always going to be people sick of Reddit’s rules as myself but you are right, let’s say Half Life 3 gets announced tomorrow out of the blue, first place I would go is Reddit to see the reactions, I think Lemmy competing on that department doesn’t make sense but I feel like Reddit needs some competition, I heard that the co-founder was building a Reddit competitor though I have no idea how that went.

This site already does something better than reddit, I love how I can just write comments thread after thread making posts without having to worry if it gets removed somehow. I love just the simplicity of posting here.

I wouldn’t be against it since r/games is used for mainly game announcements and r/gaming is a facebook tier cesspool. I wouldn’t mind a community like that.

I’m of the opinion that as large as this community gets (or any community) it’s bound to have many characters.

I guess I don’t mind that much because I think A) You won’t ever have a large site where everyone 100% agrees with you all the way, unless you are on a specific political community and even then I’ve seen many infights and civil wars over small issues.

B) I’ve dealt with many of them in worse sites (Yes even 4chan) that I don’t mind them anymore, as long as they contribute in their own communities and don’t cause harm for the website then they can chirp on their communities as much as they want, I was the kind of guy that enjoyed Political Compass memes on reddit even though it got ruined by Right-Wingers now, I was on that subreddit long before though and as soon as literal Nazis joined the subreddit got worse.

C) We should absolutely have rules to ban people that post innapropriate, illegal stuff but I feel like this website should be easier than Reddit on the moderating stuff, I’m 100% on banning Nazis and fascists if they make the site worse for everyone else, though I happened to have some interesting conversations with some Conservatives. Reddit on a whole has an awful moderating system that ironically enough doesn’t ever get checked by human beings and I don’t want to see the same here, I’ve heard people that got banned because they had the mental health crisis bot even though they didn’t do anything, I’ve heard people got banned for similar ways that I did for posting a meme lol.

Take of this what you will.
