Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

This is my first comment. I just made an account on Lemmy.world. If I’m correct, users from other instances have a second @ in their name while native users do not.

I'm from lemmy.one. Do you see my @? Curious because Jerboa only shows the @ for posts for me, not users.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm also on lemmy.world. I see the @ for you but not for Tununias. Viewing from the website.

[-] CheshireSnake@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

I see. So it's different on browser and Jerboa. Thanks!

That'll explain why I'm sitting here thinking "what @'s"

From lemon.world. I see your username @CheshireSnake@lemmy.one

Just a heads-up, your account is marked as a bot account, you probably misconfigured it.

[-] scifu@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yikes. There was “bot account” checkbox in settings that I turned on mistakenly. Thanks for the heads up.

[-] IverCoder@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

You're welcome!

[-] TurtleTourParty@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm from Midwest.social. I don't see any @ in Jerboa for comments either
