I don't participate in any threads I just read nosleep lol
Actually I don't read any threads other than bestofredditorupdates because I don't trust the fodder of people that stuck around either!

I go back for /nosleep all the time - the quality of the rest of the site has frankly dropped drastically.
People are still rioting so to speak, content just seems weak - as in I haven't been on popular really since I joined lemmy, certainly not in weeks. Who can really trust those that didn't care to be all that interesting?
The politics page is boring. The headlines say nothing. Seriously - maybe subtle now, but clear enough for a good chunk. At the very least, this didn't just go away
And now some people don't count as people
Holy shit How did it feel to be so content and one second later realize you didn't ever own what you accepted as reality?
I read every word and couldn't have written it better myself. It's a perfect letter to every nasty money hoarding dragon out there...the grinches stuck in time that never reform. Just take and take and take, glad that we rebuild, because it just creates more to take
Been on the internet a long time myself...earliest chat I can remember is something called PowWow? We could see each other type in real time...same thing as the writer though...no bad memories...just kinda talked to whoever :)
I'm really not looking for a Reddit replica. And um, being rewarded for a good comment isn't really something I need. Or anyone needs. I think getting a cookie for a good comment can be left behind
Edit to add - I should have read the rest of the post more carefully, but I stand by my initial sentiment. Money needs to be funneled into those working hard on this, but I don't know, I don't want more and more Reddit features coming out
No fences up my ass here, I didn't jump so quickly to lemmy to be immediately joined to fucken Facebook. Like. At all. I'd bet a quick poll would speak loudly
Lemmy is not a place for the type of people that end needlessly rude sentences with LOL. Everyone hates the LOL at end
Brooooooooooooooo
Thank you. I've been letting the instance concept just kind of float by undetected figuring I didn't need to understand it to navigate it I suppose. But I much prefer to understand :) thanks for the concise wording
Yeah, and they shut down the sister sights (OOC and nosleepfinder)
The stories aren't getting much for upvotes anymore, but I've usually stuck with the archives. What's killing me is not linking stories in nosleepfinder. That was my favorite pass time at night lol...my little bit of good in the world
Someone had posted the idea of unsubbing from everything so the numbers weren't inflated and I thought that was a good idea...so I did one by one and it just sucks, lots of good, obscure communities. Dumb convos. I really loved the politics megathreads especially, since literally no one else in my life carew like me lol
But I just have no interest in going back. And honestly I wasted too much time on Reddit. And Lemmy is my go to, and soon I'll use it for news/info etc without all the absolute timewasting
Ah the ol "it's not 100% effective and guaranteed to work so you should actually do nothing about it" argument...a true classic in any situation
Seriously though...I never even considered all the splashing and I'm a grown ass adult :/ happily my and my daughters toothbrush live in the kitchen
