From the outside looking in, the whole model seemed needlessly complicated. So it’s like there’s a LOT of reddit.coms over here? But they’re all the same? But also different? What’s the difference? Which one do I sign up on?

But then I get here and realized it doesn’t really matter that much, since you can more or less use all of them regardless of which one you sign up for.

Something about the way users try to communicate what Lemmy/Fediverse IS, is the complicated part. It’s like everyone wants to jump straight to the more technical details behind how the model works; which probably scares off a lot of the people who just want a place to pop in and talk about their hobbies.

What’s a fuck feather

I was one of those mole people for a while before I made the jump to Reddit, and it was equally bizarre to me as an Imgur user that other Imgur users would get mad about all the Reddit content there. Like… that’s the whole POINT of this place isn’t it??

Ford Mustangs for me

Thanks now I have to go watch that video again lol

I love that everyone saying Windows feels like they gotta justify why they’re using it lol. I’m running Windows 10 on my desktop and Windows 11 on my laptop.

Did you ever play Glover? When I think “weird n64 games” I think Glover.

This is the way

My first thought was “AI” so that makes sense.

Ooh, never heard of this one, but I know what I’m doing after work now.

This is probably my favorite analogy for it so far, at least as a high level overview. I kind of made the same connection myself and that’s when it clicked for me.

I don’t think there’s an android version out for Memmy yet.

Question; cuz I’ve been using Memmy too, and I haven’t had a chance to read into it much. I don’t have the ability to upvote/downvote/reply to individual comments in the app. I’m not sure if it’s a bug on my end or if he just hasn’t had a chance to implement those features yet. Do you have that same issue with it?

Turns out I’m an idiot and I didn’t realize it was a swipe action in the app. I thought I was just missing the reply button.

That’s exactly what it was lol. I spent a minute searching for someone else with the same problem last night and realized what I’ve done.

Cuz “Fedier” is a terrible name.

As a fellow guitar player in an active band; I also say this to people a lot lol. I love the looks some people give when they don’t know I’m joking.

Interesting. I’ve been having that issue non stop. I may try to send in a bug report or something tonight.

That’s true, that’s why I didn’t file a report right away. I’m sure all of these devs are absolutely inundated with bug reports and feature requests right now.
