I'm disabled and unemployed with only a GED education. I'm not a programmer or anything. I taught myself basic HTML in 1997 when I was 10, but that's about as far as I go. I know juuuuust enough about tech to understand and appreciate that Lemmy is decentralized and open-source.

But I think you'll find that a lot of new users are only here because Spez is ruining Reddit. All they're looking for is a Reddit that doesn't suck.

I thought the priest at church was Jesus.

Open-source projects have always been sustainable by donations. Just look at Wikipedia; it's been around for 22 years. Linux has been around for even longer.

If lemmy.world ever sold out, I'd probably just move to reddthat.com. Problem solved.

If one of those aliens turns out to be Jesus, I might have to become a Christian.

Lemmy would really benefit from a "hide child comments" option.

What kind of mom tells their kid there's a monster under their bed who wants to eat their feet?

YTS is good for movies.

Welp. Time to find a new website.

To me, the main difference is that I can't get Firefish to work.

I still use Winamp because people made plugins for it (like Chipamp) so I can listen to video game music in its native/emulated format. For me, that's all Winamp is good for. This new Winamp is probably new software created from the ground up, so those plugins will be useless.

I've seen both, but right now, I'm seeing black and blue.
