I think “lemming” could probably change given it’s original definition

Laughing is for boomers. Lol is hip.

I swear I saw this meme like…a decade ago

I made an account when I first heard of Lemmy a few months ago, lost my login details. With the userbase taking such a huge uptick I’ve decided to get back on it.

I think its great, it’ll be better in some ways, worse in other ways, but you just follow the content you wanna see and you’re good. Reddit has been due for a mass migration to another platform for a while now, it seems this is just now the tipping point.

Ultimately I think to have redditors switch to a reddit-like platform that isn’t controlled by investors is a great idea. And if you dont like the way your instance is run, make your own. You can do that. Can’t do that on reddit.

I like that there can be different fediverse social media, all run independently but connected. I’m new to the topic and learning more about it before I contribute to the github but its a very interesting concept. And the fact that there are other services like PeerTube, makes it seem like more of an open source version of the internet. TLDR: Inter-connectivity

Got my steam deck about August last year, I’ve been using it almost exclusively for gaming this year. At the beginning of the year I used my gaming PC to play some Battlefield 2042 but other than that its been Steam Deck only.

Blasphemous im working on beating right now before the 2nd one comes out. Also playing a bit of Ride 4 before 5 comes out. Once i am ready to loop back to other games on my list to beat I’ll also be playing Nier Automata. Another I’ve found of interest recently just due to its simple gameplay and coop capability is Death Road to Canada.

Not really. I’m mainly waiting for some motorcycle communities, telescope/astrophotography ones, Silmarillion/LOTR/StarWars/StarTrek memes, along with some other minor ones. Some of these technically exist but they are low on member counts FOR NOW, literally growing by the minute though.

Also the search function seems to be a little off so sometimes it doesnt always list the correct number of active users for a community if its a community from an external instance. Also not all communities show up/are indexed quickly. But im sure that will improve relatively quickly
