I did the [Make a Lemmy account] sub-quest. Now, the [Waste time on social media] ability decreases my [Self-Esteem] (or [SE]) stat less and boosts my [Happiness] (or [HPN]) stat more. I think I did the right choice for my character. I also completed the [Remove comments on Reddit] sub-quest, I only have the [Delete Reddit account] quest left. I'll probably do it the next in-game day, during the [Reddit Blackout] event.

Hello! A lot of people are discussing the recent Reddit changes (I'm also a Reddit refugee), but I think there are some reasons why a mass exodus from Reddit won't be good for Lemmy:

  • servers would crash The reddit "hivemind" would move to Lemmy The shitty jokes would continue here
  • just check r/redditmoment. Do you want that to become c/lemmymoment?
  • right now the community here is big enough that there are enough posts to keep us entertained, but small enough to get to interact multiple times with the same people and not get drowned in a sea of posts/comments The Lemmy community rn is also formed of at least mildly tech-savvy people (that could figure out the whole instances thing), that isn't the case for Reddit

As some people mentioned, many people will just forget what happened after the blackout (unless it becomes permanent), so a mass exodus also seems unlikely.

What do you think about this?

EDIT: I'm not talking about denying every Reddit application, I just hope the annoying redditors go back into their hole, just like @JTurtle said.

Better than every user from Reddit coming to Lemmy, for a few reasons:

  • servers would crash
  • the reddit "hivemind" would move to Lemmy
  • the shitty jokes would continue here
  • just check r/redditmoment, do you want that to become c/lemmymoment?
  • right now the community here is big enough that there are enough posts to keep us entertained, but small enough to get to interact multiple times with the same people and not get drowned in a sea of posts/comments
  • the Lemmy community rn is also formed of at least mildly tech-savvy people (that could figure out the whole instances thing), that isn't the case for Reddit

"I'm doing my part!" is probably the most used meme on Lemmy

I'm not really "mourning" it, but I had a weird feeling, like the end of a great book (series) or movie, like I wish it would have continued more.

Hiwever after switching to lemmy, the community here seems way more active and friendly, and even though there are less overall users, I get more interaction with my posts and comments, maybe also because they aren't drowned in a sea of other comments.

I'm Gen Z and never got to experience the old internet, but I have seen old posts on stuff like Google Groups and mail lists. The fediverse has a similar vibe, and I like it

IMO the better thing to do would be to convert it into a Lemmy client. I heard someone is making a Lemmy API that works like reddit's, so maybe it could use that when it's ready?

Either way, I'm starting to work on my own Lemmy app written in React Native. If you have a name better than "ymmel" (reverse "lemmy"), please tell me.

Hello, I was wondering what version (23.05, 22.11, unstable, etc) of nixpkgs you use. I personally use unstable, and it's never broken.

Edit: I also have a master input in my flake, which I added just for XIVLauncher (context: someone made a PR to fix it not building, and it got merged into master, but last time I checked it wasn't backported to unstable)

[-] Ultra980@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

They said that they're keeping old reddit.

But they also told Christian Selig that the API won't be changing anytime soon...

It's better to just improve Lemmy than keep going on Reddit. They keep doing more and more shitty anti-user things, for their IPO (initial public offering). This is probably just the beginning

Hello, is there a way to block post from a specific instance (Lemmygrad) to prevent them from showing up on my feed? Thanks!

[-] Ultra980@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Probably, since it's decentralised people can just move to another instance if the mods on theirs abuse their power.

[-] Ultra980@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago

NixOS, because all of the config in my system is declared in a few files on GitHub and it has a huge package repo.

Also it has all of the other advantages of a Linux distro, like privacy, speed and customisability.

This but with SD cards
