I couldn't agree more.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
But thanks to reddit most of us are here, so it will take bit of time to forget it
I agree, I just joined here from reddit, and would like see communities florish reminiscent to reddit but like you said, we need to move on from an old Ex and see how it goes
And the ex is also the waiter.
I agree, let's move on. Lemmy is the future.
Well you are not wrong!
Eh, it’s more like going out with the guys then complaining about your ex. And incidentally, you’ve all had a ride one that particular crazy coaster so you can sympathize.
Ironically, you used this sub to talk about Reddit. We left, why don't you move on?
If reddit was that important to whomever they should probably talk to someone about it.
I dunno… at this point it’s like hearing stories about your crazy ex and kinda enjoying at what a dumpster fire s/he has become.
I'm new, what is fedverse? Is this fed verse? Is lemmy part of something else called fedverse?
My completely unknowledgeable answer based on the week or so I've been here.
Lemmy works as a series of self hosted "instances", basically servers people run kinda like a games server or bitcoin miner.
When you join Lemmy, you picked an instance, that is the server you connect to and get all your data from, the "local" in your list.
This server then talks to and share posts with all the other servers it knows about and is connected to. That way when you query your local instance, it knows all about the other content on the other servers.
The over all cluster of various servers is the "Fediverse", various stand alone instances which share data to create the larger community.
So when the talk about defederating a site, like Threads, they mean cutting that server off from the rest of the community.
It's a form of therapy
I disagree. I'm not trying to fuck Lemmy.
I hope this can just be a hangout with the lads and lasses where we can bitch about anything, including our ex!
More like fleeing a totalitarian regime and talking with your fellow compatriots about how much oppression you've endured. (A bit exaggerated, but you get the point.)
Hi, I'm here to complain about people complaining about other people who are complaining about Reddit.
I'm tired of reading about this. We must do something, Lemmy!
Technically complaing about others talking about reddit. Is still talking about reddit with extra steps
LMAO not that I disagree but it's funny
People on Mastodon are complaining about people talking about twitter, and posting their complaints to the hashtag #twitter which is very odd, as they could filter it.
I expect there will be filters on Lemmy eventually.
Except everyone here has the same awful ex to complain about
Thank you. Forget Reddit. I mean, like it's so hard to move on. She was so great for so long. We have so many... memories. Not all good, but it's so hard to be alone. This new girl is nice, but she's not the same.
Sure, Reddit got pissed while I was out with my friends and trashed my apartment. It was clear by then that our relationship was so messed up, but I wanted to salvage things and rushed home, only to be cornered by Reddit. Reddit was threatening me with a knife and had broken almost everything in the apartment. My friends came to help me and while one tried to subdue Reddit, she bit him and I escaped.
I moved out and deleted my account.
Sure, weeks later, I got drunk and browsed Reddit a few times after all that. When I wasn't drinking, she tracked/stalked me and sent unsolicited nudes. Nice.
I found a much better girl to hang out with. Sure she federates with everyone, but she federates with me much more. Very cool.
well, some women will ask a lot of question about your exes...
that's like lemmy asking: "do you regret breaking up with reddit? what did you like about reddit?"
