BrewJajaja ( @BrewJajaja@lemmy.ml ) English8•1 year agoOh wow, of course, duh. It was so obviously obvious.
Saik0 ( @Saik0Shinigami@lemmy.saik0.com ) English21•1 year agoIt’s seems that my audience was also mostly just one person… That person is dedicated though.
The dogspaw ( @Thedogspaw@midwest.social ) English6•1 year agoMy audience is one person to me I’m dedicated to being my biggest fan though

Neil ( @Neil@lemmy.ml ) English57•1 year agoMy account here is 4 years old. I was so excited to learn about Lemmy back then, but the user base was painfully low. I’m getting that same excitement I had back then.
Please new people, make this your permanent home and forget Reddit!

Smellmop ( @Smellmop@beehaw.org ) English4•1 year agoI’m definitely considering taking up permanent residence
NewBrainWhoThis ( @NewBrainWhoThis@lemmy.world ) English3•1 year agoPeople stay if there is enough content and the user experience doesn’t suck. So fare, more and more people try to engage and build new communities. Just try to add value. Also the UI and Apps improved quickly but its fare from perfect :-)
starrox ( @starrox@lemmy.ml ) English2•1 year agoon it my good sir!
Petri ( @petriborg@lemmy.ml ) English2•1 year agoThat’s the idea 😉

sagittarie ( @sagittarie@lemmy.world ) English18•1 year agoYes, I’m very proud of the Reddit community for several times over the years mass-recommending open source and federated options.
asexualchangeling ( @asexualchangeling@lemmy.ml ) English14•1 year agoIt’s honestly been amazing to witness, it’s still got a ways to go before it’s anything like mainstream but still
SubArcticTundra ( @SubArcticTundra@beehaw.org ) English3•1 year agoYeah still missing a lot of country/thing-specific communities

President_Pyrus ( @President_Pyrus@feddit.dk ) English13•1 year agoYeah, Lemmy has changed alot already for us “old timers” :)
mobiuscoffee ( @mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works ) English3•1 year agoback in my day there was only one thread with hundreds of comments. Kids these days have it easy.
ddh ( @DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org ) English3•1 year agoYep, ‘back in my day’ you could finish reading everything posted that day. I’m glad it’s kicked off!
starrox ( @starrox@lemmy.ml ) English4•1 year agoSame boat. It’s kind of amazing, you can literally watch the userbase grow with popular entries getting more and more general upvotes.
SturgiesYrFase ( @SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml ) English3•1 year agoI jumped on a week ago. The change in that time has been totally insane! I went from being able to scroll for an hour maybe for the first few days, to now, it’s developing into a full blown doom-scroll addiction…
Test_User ( @Test_User@lemmy.rogers-net.com ) English35•1 year agoWhat do you mean? Lemmy started last week right? /s

LEMMY’S GOT TECHIES, IT’S GOT TREKKIES, IT’S GOT MASTODON INTEGRATION AND ISN’T OWNED BY A CORPORATE ENTITY, OR ANY GOVERNMENT! RADICAL!
super_user_do ( @super_user_do@feddit.it ) English15•1 year agoThis is the redditest comment on Lemmy i’ve ever read
SturgiesYrFase ( @SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml ) English4•1 year agoF
BlinkerFluid ( @BlinkerFluid@lemmy.ml ) English2•1 year agoMight as well carry on as usual. I like to think nothing changed and we just moved.
The community is thousands of times more important than where it happens to be.
mobiuscoffee ( @mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works ) English8•1 year agoscrap the current https://join-lemmy.org/ we need a screenshot of this comment up there and nothing else NOW

Goat ( @Goat@lemmy.world ) English27•1 year agoI feel nostalgic in advance for having stumbled on an inside joke that I was almost around early enough to be on the inside of but can nevertheless clearly project myself there.
randromeda ( @randromeda@lemmy.ml ) English24•1 year agoMy first comment was the most upvoted comment on a subreddit. I got 19 upvoted.
mrmanager ( @mrmanager@lemmy.today ) English19•1 year agoPeople are just much more supportive and friendlier here. But I guess because we are in a state now before all the assholes join from reddit…
sparklingsquirrel ( @sparklingsquirrel@feddit.de ) English3•1 year agoI really hope that won’t be the case. So far I like Lemmy and the vibe here a lot and am not afraid to comment somewhere which was the case on Reddit. I hope it stays that way, guess we’ll see that after the blackout.
ddh ( @DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org ) English3•1 year agoMaybe it’s just me but Mastodon seems still way friendlier than Twitter, I guess partly to do with the people but also the platform structure that seems to have less incentive to attack people. Hope it’s the same for Lemmy.
setInner234 ( @setInner234@feddit.de ) English23•1 year agoLet’s get this to 500!

BrewJajaja ( @BrewJajaja@lemmy.ml ) English12•1 year agoWait is there a specific Lemmy person? Because I initially though that this site was some Motorhead fan page that evolved into a reddit alternative lol lol. Im so old.
hschen ( @hschen@sopuli.xyz ) English9•1 year agoNah its named after Lemmy, but not a fan page haha
Drew Got No Clue ( @ndr@lemmy.world ) English5•1 year agoFrom their Github:
Why’s it called Lemmy?
- Lead singer from Motörhead.
- The old school video game.
- The Koopa from Super Mario.
