Happy to be here. Leaving reddit for this place was a great decision. πͺ
News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
Welcome!
Hi diddly ho neighborino
Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
This seems really cool. It's taking me a bit to get used to but honestly I'll probably stay here.
Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
Tens of dozens even
This is my first post, on my first day here, and it feels pretty good.
Welcome to Lemmy! I hope you have a great time here! π
Itβs kind of a rush picking a username knowing most are still available.
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.
So tasty names still available
(There always will be many good names available since every name can exist once on every instance)
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.
We never said they're real.
Yes, of course, strictly in Minecraft.
I'm loving it already! And...I'm not scrolling through ads too!!
Every time I end up on Reddit the amount of ads makes me recoil. Youβre free now!
Showed as white on white on my UI, so here's the picture below.
A few pointers for new joiners:
Yeah, shows my image editing fu. Thanks for pointers! I did do a search but turned out my fu is not particularly strong there either...
No worries, thank you for this post, it's nice to welcome people from Reddit!
Hey fellow redfugees!
Welcome! It's nice and comfy here, if a little less of an infinite content-hose compared to Reddit. You might need to do a little more heavy lifting yourself in terms of posting and commenting, but on the plus side - people actually read what you post, instead of being drowned by a deluge of spam and bots! And discussions are mostly friendly and civil!
Yes that's what I've found! There's less of it but the quality is far better, the atmosphere is far better and it's like reddit used to be years ago. I've missed all that and I'm so glad I found lemmy. βΊοΈ
Just be warned, those dozens are all actually one person.
It's me. I just enjoy talking to myself so much I made lemmy
Dozens of dozens of dozens of dozens of dozens... 112,744 to be inexact...
Lemmy Total Users by Day: 1,352,936 for 3/12/25.
Divided by 12, that's 112,744 and some change... probably a couple of baker's dozens in there....
Looks like ~53k monthly active users, I think that's a better stat, since it doesn't include people making new alts and abandoning their old accounts.
Can some people who are willing to post something other than American politics and Reddit bashing posts join lemmy soon, I'm sick of my entire feed being nothing but all these negative topics
Big things are happening in the world right now. I know that it sucks.
Welcome and dont forget to tip your local server administrators. Servers are not free.
Keep it away from corporations by donating today. :)
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.
nazis can stay the fuck out, though.
How come theres been an influx of users recently? Did reddit shit the bed again?
Yes they started banning thousands of active users for βinciting violenceβ if you say things like βfuck Elon muskβ or βmy favorite character in super Mario bros is Luigiβ
Reddit recently started doubling down on far-right actions. Like making it so you can be banned for just upvoting a post that breaks the rules, or banning you for saying the name "Luigi."
Personally, I recently got permabanned for being truthful about fascists.
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
