I tagged him in messages for a few days calling him a cunt but never got banned. I guess DM was the thing to make it be effective?

It’s garbage and people love it. 🐑
1984 - George Orwell tried to warn us.
I would at least give them a chance. Meta is DOA.
It’s very… basic. One timeline, can’t filter anything out… ton of garbage. No thanks. Holy shit it’s bad.
What’s Twitter?
I see “fuck u/Spez” and I upvote
At least you’ll be able to shit on it. That other guy hasn’t pooped in over 3 days.
I thought I was gonna be able to quit Reddit full time. Didn’t look for a few days, then did. Still check since some niche communities aren’t over here (or active) yet so I have to go there. But I only still check every few days (I was a several time a day redditor so usage is down) and I’ll check Lemmy at least once or twice a day now.
Better yet… have that guy who hasn’t pooped in 3 days shit on it when he’s back. That’ll really be a winner.
I mean, they aren’t fucking wrong. Half life 3 has a federated communication system built into multiplayer? Go do it Gabe.
It’s meta. It was ruined in the conception stage. No way were there good actors at play at any point in this process.
Give it a few months
Don’t threaten me with a good time
Hey! I helped do something! You’re wrong about being a 50 year old dead beat mom and dad!
…when’s lunch?
Phillies fan checking in. Agree. I have a community with a bot that posts game updates like Reddit (which is nice) but the game threads are mainly me posting once or twice and one or two other people with side off comments. No community engagement so to speak. Long way from the Reddit game threads of several thousand comments.
I’m talking about the wall in their rooms though that they can use to listen in when they want, you have no private conversations.
Except I was prompted to create an account no less than like 2-3 times in the 2-3 times I opened Instagram after it launched. It’s not automatic but it is damn near two step enrollment. I’d like to see ”active users” two weeks/months from now after the enrollment storm passes to see who actually stayed with it.
Can someone TL;DR the beans? I slept last night and woke up to Lemmy just being beans… wtf.
Competition drives innovation. If something from a walled garden fediverse comes to the broader world as a result, awesome. I mean, if we could federate with Reddit for example, and I could access their subs content but not be subjected to their 1st party app and ads and karma and that’s the stuff on top of their instance, I don’t care what they do on their server.
If anything it may introduce people as a gateway into the fediverse to begin with so when something happens on a corporate instance that pisses them off, they might feel compelled to look into the broader world around them. Not all, but some.
I guess the only big concern most people have here is the Microsoft EEE.
Never too soon. 🚢 🧑✈️
I just want our first Lemmy AMA to be that person. I’d mod for that community so hard.
So everything but the piano. Even then, it’s more of a “don’t tell me what I can’t do” type attitude.
I see “fuck u/Spez” I upvote
Old people got em too!
Paid promotion I’m sure — if not, sad that people are admitting they are “addicted” so far.
No. Private subs still showed the topic part of the body and like 4 words of the first comment I think before clicking to see you couldn’t read more. I think r/Homekit is an example of this at one point….
Threads being federated fascinates me. In one hand, it ends up being a gateway to mastodon / Lemmy for some. People who grumble about how “evil” Twitter / Facebook is but use it anyhow because “that’s where everyone is” may at least have their toes dipped into those concept and some of that may now see leaving as a viable option to something that isn’t evil as long as they can still see that content. It’s still seems to early to tell.
Another great bastion of reddit content has been felled.
Another reason for redditors to leave and join Lemmy.
So you’d like it if it jIt said “lightbulb on tablet”?
This is the way
Some preemptively moved over in a transition period maybe?
Something something…beans meme
It’s garbage and people will love it.
Good. Fuck u/spez — that little cunt
Not with that attitude you won’t
Don’t tell me what I can’t do! - John Locke
I literally had someone request to “follow me” who then immediately text me and ask — what is this thing that it just put me on.
They are definitely inflating numbers and making it hard to drop user count because deleting threads deletes your Instagram too.
You’ll only ever hear about total users now never “active” would be my guess which after a few days or weeks will be significantly less than the “10 million” that supposedly “signed up”
Goddamn it. I see beans, i upvote.
Honestly, the reason I left Reddit was the 3rd party api bullshit. If they suddenly federated and I could use Lemmy to subscribe to some of their communities / subs again without needing to be subjected to their bullshit ads and 1st party client bullshit, I’d welcome that.
