Reddit died June 2023
I don't know why people are still playing with the corpse
I agree and haven't returned but lemmy hasn't hit critical mass yet.... Like I don't recall a post with over a hundred replies. Reddit used to have over a thousand on every reply on the first page.
You obviously weren't here for the guy who didn't want to poop for days. There were a LOT of replies on that one.
Link?
I wish i could, but this was 2 years ago, and once the post blew up huge, OP deleted it. Some Lemmy historian may have a copy, but alas, i do not.
Basically, OP posted a question where they said they didn't want to poop during the upcoming weekend, and then asked how they could keep from pooping for three days. This was shortly after the Reddit API exodus.
The comments were very helpful, reasoned, and...Nah, im just kidding, they pretty much went the way you would expect, with lots of wild speculation about why OP didn't want to poop for three days, and lots of "helpful" suggestions about how to not poop for three days.
Strangely though, i think the post did a lot of good, as it showed a lot of ex-redditors that Lemmy could work as a reddit replacement, and be just as goofy as the original.
Here’s an archive link 7 days later, with 800+ replies
