I hate these "only a small amount of people will understand" posts

[-] stu@lemmy.pit.ninja 36 points 1 year ago

This is a good "I am Very Smart" candidate which surprisingly doesn't seem to have an active community here on Lemmy yet...and I might be just fine with that now that I think about it. It seemed like half the posts there on Reddit either were mean spirited, called out the wrong side in an argument, or were actually smart.

Yeah I don't think anything of value is lost if we don't recreate all they bully subreddits.

They're unhealthy for their subjects, of course, because imagine seeing a post you made when you were younger on one of those subs and reading all the comments about how terrible a person you are

But they're also unhealthy for the subscribers and readers - rage scrolling will fuck you up

Hard agree. They attract people who like feeling superior to others. You can imagine where things will inevitably lead when you put a bunch of them in the same place.

That aside it just reeks of trashy.

“Very few people understand simple and obvious metaphors using common things”

[-] nonearther@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago

That small percentage? 99

"Only a small percent of people will understand this obvious metaphor."

[-] funkajunk@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Same. How are some people so unaware of just how "average" they are?

Something that feels illegal but you can buy it in a gas station.

Super excited that my box of whippits just federated with your kratom

Boys: is checking your email basically drugs?

I mean whether you're checking your email, or not, just go do some meth. Your body will thank me later.

Who tf is addicted to Safari?

[-] snek_boi@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Mac users who don't know the alternatives, don't know about FLOSS, or have other rigid ideas about Safari being superior? Idk...

[-] kevur@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

I would say this is mostly about mobile / tablet apps, not desktop usage, and Safari is far more often used on the iPhone than the Mac

[-] original_ish_name@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

All ios browsers are reskinned safari

Lemmy is probiotic.

[-] Little8Lost@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

maybe lemmy would be the drink from star trek: the original series (pilot episode "the cage")
That drink had enough of every nutrions the species needed and tasted like what the living thing wanted (one that fits all)

But it is not a drug
You can watch the episode if you like but the special effects really fit 1988 but i think how the characters are played is way more modern that 1988

Pepto bismol

[-] jernej@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I "get" most of them but why TF is Glovo a part of it, who is addictes to ordering food?

[-] Mercival@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Well, she did say only a small percent of people will get it.
