If you've been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.

Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)

Yeah I think it's best we don't advertise this place. It's a little strange.

[–] Syrc@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

We need to get more people in here if we want it to actually be a Reddit competitor. Right now it’s good for some communities, but smaller ones are still extremely underpopulated.

[–] JayGray91@fedia.io 2 points 6 days ago

I've seen the moist cat mbin instance being promoted a few times in RedditAlternative before I move here, actually. it's one of my considerations jumping instances actually.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 141 points 1 week ago (11 children)

Come to Lemmy, we got: blood thirsty Linux users, furries, femboys, communists, and tankies. Also, porn.

[–] 5redie8@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It has its own charm once you get used to it lmao

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The charm is why I keep coming back. Especially when it comes to the Lemmy Charm comments for lemmynsfw.com.

[–] benjaminb@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 6 days ago

On Reddit I looked at so many posts on one day, on Lemmy I read like 2 posts but go in the comments much more often. Actually I look at more comments than posts, which I find better!

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Well, reddit has nothing at this point, so it's better than the competition.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

And knives.

And beans.

[–] Someplaceunknown@fedia.io 5 points 6 days ago

Don’t forget the No Poop Challenge

[–] monotremata@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Thanks, Stefon.

[–] tryagain@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 days ago

*porn involving some or all of the above

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 48 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The porn is sadly lacking, actuallly.

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Be the change you want to see

What exactly does a DragonTypeWyvern tail look like? Is it long with scales?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Depends on the kind of wyvern

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

That's all wyverns. Reddit is demonstrably and embarrassingly wrong.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

I see a lot more Trek memes here than on reddit and I love every one

The Picard Maneuver "Am I joke to you?"

[–] hex@programming.dev 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Wait how is Squid this popular? 😂

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 days ago

I'd say it is more notoriety than popularity.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

He has the most posts and comments on the Lemmy activity scoreboard.

[–] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Mother of God, I did not realize that he's pushing 70k comments.

Btw are you just joking or isn't there actually a tool that checks Lemmy profiles and gives a neat little scorecard with some stats? I remember reading a thread where someone linked it but that was a while ago.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

The ios app Mlem shows a scoreboard of users in the search tab. Also Thunder has a monthly contribution stats on user profiles.

[–] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago

Ok cool. Tfw there are so many great apps for Lemmy but you can only use one at a time 😔

Also, porn.

Where is this abhorrent content? I need to know so i can avoid it....

[–] Sconrad122@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Is sh.itjust.works not federated with lemmynsfw.com? Or maybe you use a Front page or Local feed. Here on world (no comment on the instance wars), lemmynsfw communities pretty regularly show up on my All feed. Seems like whatever they do with posts over there really makes the "Active" sorter happy, if you know what I mean

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

It definitely was federated back when I made my acct here, as I had to block it lmao.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

That's what I was wondering. For a while I swear naked images of Rinkunn were more prevalent than The Picard Maneuver. I'm an All user mostly out of curiosity but disappointed that I think world defederated from one of the major furry ones cause that dropped considerably.

Wait, is disappointed the right word? I guess it is, although maybe i just miss their positivity. I'm still cool with hexbear being defederated, after all. Lol

[–] Shapillon@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Often most of those at the same time.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 0 points 6 days ago

I could see people promoting Piefed and Mbin instead.

[–] LittleRatInALittleHat@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's no different than reddit, DIGG, or the Something Awful forums before they got popular.

[–] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Which is why it's based that it wasn't promoted

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 6 days ago

As long as no one sells off Lemmy, which is impossible now...
