True…

But then I wouldn’t be able to randomly fb stalk someone I used to work with like 10 years ago who randomly popped in my head and then get kinda bitter cuz it looks like shit’s going significantly better for them than me…

Not that I’d do that or anything…

🤣😂 omg, you’re cracking me up, dude, quit… First of all, I don’t think enough time has passed for there to be ‘classic reddit migrant’ anything, but I do know that either way you can take your pathetic little attempts at gatekeeping and go fuck yourself with them. 😁Also, if you have such a problem with people coming to lemmy, then why the fuck are you shitposting in a thread that’s clearly not for you?

Secondly, I would contend that I can’t insult something you don’t have.

And I didn’t ask you to reply to a single thing I’ve said, yet… Here you are. Those aren’t arguments, they’re called facts, junior. Now, please, get outta here with this sad, little man energy.

Teamspeak? Now there’s I haven’t heard in quite some time… lol

That’s what I was attributing it to, so I wasn’t incredibly worried about it. Of course, I was also tossing around the idea of cobbling together my own shard (or whatever they’re called lol) for fun from one of the PCs i have sitting idle so then I’d have no one to blame but myself! 🤣😂

Of course, it’s a whole new platform, there’s bound to be all sorts of things that need ironing out. Tbh I just think it’s a good sign already that these are things that are being discussed (or are open for discussion at all, for that matter) and not just unilaterally decided.

Also, I hope my comment didn’t come across as being disparaging or anything… All my criticism was intended to be constructive, I promise

Supposing that we’ll always be here because… we’ve always been here is exactly the kind of thinking that’s fucked our species.

The fact alone that more people aren’t concerned over the fact that we’ve passed +1.5C in La Nina years even with aersol masking is horrifying. Look up ‘blue ocean event’ or ‘clathrate gun’ or actually learn about the increasing ocean acidification or the break down of the jet stream and if you’re any kind of intelligent at all (which your comment has me highly doubting) you’ll see a reason to miss such a community. It sounds like you’re just another one of those who’d rather stick their head in the sand and worship your monied betters, though.

If it’s any consolation, it appears I may’ve spoken too soon about the timeouts having gone away… They’re sporadic as hell

The issue I then see with that is well, which duplicate instance gets to be the Highlander? 😋 Does the system automatically show you the post with the most comments? The one that’s had its link clicked most? The one from the largest community?

Also, how do you prevent this from being hijacked? Say I post some bright, shiny new OC meme, only to have some bot immediately repost it with exactly the same title, etc…

Not that I have any solutions for any of this, mind…

I’m still feeling my way around and have subbed to a community or two here and there, but (using Jerboa on Android) so far it’s actually not that different from using rif (for me, anyway.)

The only real issue that I’ve encountered so far is I kept getting timeout errors whenever I tried to comment (though the comments seem to have posted anyway) or when I clicked into a comment thread, but those seem to have subsided for the most part…

I have one mostly for msgr, which i pretty much exclusively use to find illicit substances so… 🤷‍♂️ do with that what you will lol

COLLAPSE

Call me a doomer if you want, but i think we’re gonna be way fucked a lot sooner than expected climate-wise

Oldpeopefacebook was another just like that

Dude… I spent over ELEVEN FUCKING YEARS of my life visiting that site almost daily - just about always through rif. I’m a little beside myself, if we’re being perfectly honest. (Which kinda feels dumb to say about something like reddit, but… There it is.) I mean, I realized last night that I was having to re-learn how to find news on the internet. Which was weird.

This isn’t exactly what I needed on top of losing basically every long-term relationship I had left in the span of a year or so… Just sayin’. 🙃 (Can I emoji here? Lol Have mercy on me I’m quite clearly new at this🤣😂)
