Asklemmy

When Lemmy Kravitz said "it's Lemmy Time" and Lemmied all over those guys.

I can't tell if this is a serious question or not, but it's pretty complicated to fully explain. The short of the long of it is that now that MySpace has started to use retina verification for their 2FA, people are upset that it's an invasion of privacy due to the reflective nature of human ball eyes. Since Lemmy only requires a password for mod accounts, it's an easier platform for people to use to share embedded auto play music and glittery gifs. I don't think it'll last though, word on the street is that Digg is going to be removing all authentication methods soon, so I expect a majority of the userbase will move there

Communism. Americans decided they would fight KKK and Nazism with the same vigor and discovered that communism was way better.

The name Lemmy is seeing a revival for newborns. As parents look up the name and its meaning, they find lemmy instances and end up going down the rabbit hole.

The Poop post hit 9Gag a few days days ago. Then a bunch of them started coming to "Lemmy: Discorse is Magic" all the time "ironically." There were a bunch of inside jokes about how much they "hated" Lemmy. They even came up with a name to identify each other because this joke of loving Lemmy was so funny. They called themselves Broemmys.

Then a bunch of other sites started to notice all the 9gaggers coming to Lemmy but didn't know that it was supposed to be ironic, so they just came and had a really good time. They participated and were active in communities. They learned of the fediverse and just decided it was a really great place to be... Sometimes there was some NSFW stuff.

Then a bunch of them got together and decided throw Broemmycon and they hired a really pretty good who does Broemmy based music to come and play as the event headliner. And everyone had a good time, even the old 9gaggers who used to think it was a joke.

We came to lemmy after reddit become nice and started letting people use there api without playing. Reddit even open sourced there code as a bonus! We didn't like reddit being nice so we switched to lemmy. Lemmy is much better because its close source and full of spyware. Lemmy makes people pay 100 dollars for every api request. Us Lemmings love are spyware, bloatware, adware, malware, and virus all in one fun packet!

Word got out about the amazing and intuitive UI, and the ease with which you can find and subscribe to your interests. Personally, I’m never going back to AOL.

Instinctive migration.

It's app is better

People started to hate the new Digg layout and spilled over to Lemmy.

hold on, lemmy think about it first...

Investigators say it is due to a large network of alien ships outfitted with technology far surpassing our current level that NASA confirmed entered the Solar System in 1994. In 2023 these ships entered Low-Earth Orbit and began to enter the atmosphere. Videos circulating all over social media claim that the alien ships expelled a gray material into the sky, later confirmed by air quality specialists to be nanoscale bots designed specifically to phase through the skull layer into the human brain, presumably as a form of mind control.

For reasons beyond human comprehension, these nanobots made changes to the human brain's neuronal topology to then artificially introduce an urge to check out Lemmy. It is also suspected that these alien ships may have also performed mind control operations on Reddit's high-ranking employees to induce these controversial API changes to further drive traffic to Lemmy and most importantly, save on nanobots.

We assume that these alien ships would have to spend hundreds of thousands of years in interstellar space to return to their homeworld to pick up more, so it would be reasonable that they would take measures to minimize their nanobot usage.
