But the advantage is that Lemmy allows Tor. 😅
Its impossible to delete anything on the fediverse
Now there are my nudes and other things somewhere out there. Just great…
It feels like Reddit felt twenty years ago
For some of the really prolific posters, yes. But there are also lurkers like me.
I doubt anyone can recognize me when I comment or encounter a comment I made.
I’m order to prove you wrong, I am committed to remembering your username.
Thanks…?
Let’s see when we meet each other in some other corner of Lemmy.
until we see each other again 🫡
User tags make recognizing people a lot easier. I see tagged users a lot. Voyager even keeps a running total of how many times I have upvoted and downvoted particular users.
There’s one user I have at like -30, tagged as a Nazi apologist. And sure enough, every time I scroll past them, they’re commenting some weird BS.
Oh, I use that too on my mobile app (Voyager). I am starting to think that once the total votes reach some threshold, either I’d encounter them consistently dishing out hot takes, or I’m primed to think their take is hot and spicy.
Look at it this way, in a small town people are more likely to be kind and offer higher quality information when asked. The same things can be said about lemmy.
Definitely found that to be the case so far! Posted the same question to reddit and it was crickets there.
In game theory, a repeated prisoner’s dilemma can become a stag hunt if the probability of future interaction is high enough. Which is essentially what you’re saying.
Ita kinda neat imo. It’s like being in a small town and seeing a celebrity whenever satansmaggotycumfart joins the conversation.
What happened to FlyingSquid
IIRC, they were having some health issues. It’s possible that it likely got too overwhelming, and they took time away from Lemmy to focus on their health.
Oh 😢
I see all of the same names in like every thread here haha. I remember y’all too. I know you are all freaks
At least people are keeping my mother’s name out of their damn mouth.
can’t wait for G.I. Jane 2
This message brought to you by fandango. Some how you can stream movies that are still in theaters but no one trust us enough to find out how.
I subscribed to her only fans page 😁
I don’t know a lot of people in my small town and I don’t know you!
Also, blocking people you don’t like is far more effective.
Some people here have a really huge effect. Guys like Stamets, The Picard Maneuver, and MicroWave, I see their posts all the time.
When I first joined, I saw The Picard Maneuver so often that I thought it was a community, not just a single user.
Oh yea, MicroWave feels like a half-bot tbh, no offense. Like I never see this dude made a single comment, only post articles. No wonder why that username is so forgettable.
I’ve chatted with him before. I think he just likes posting.
Also because it allows anyone to easily stalk all your comments for some reason. Creepy.
I wanna be stalked! Someone, start stalking me right now!

Keep Punk alive boss man
Hell yeah, bookmarked the page so I can order one of those shirts later! And I can use them for merch when I get to that point, awesome 👍
Hell yea brother
Would that make you fall in love with me too ?
Only if you share a deep-seated hatred for white supremacists!
that’s some hella good music you make
Aw thanks! I try my best!
Is that different than Reddit?
Nope. It’s just that would be the first thing I changed if I were making a reddit clone.
I have a feeling everyone knows who I am, and those who don’t haven’t blocked me yet.
it’s fine. I’m not going to apologize for my opinions because that’s somehow worse than defending unpopular opinions.
I’d rather be the person who owns their hill and dies for it than someone who runs from hill to hill because the group thinks it sucks.
I mean, you just mentioned that. Of course someone will disagree, but most probably wont bother. I just wanna know, do you exclude gaining a new perspective from this? Because I’m exceedingly strong willed when encountering illogical or otherwise short sighted points. But sometimes folks just show me a new perspective and I am compelled to agree. Doesnt happen often except in tech questions but here we are.
I am completely open to new perspectives and have changed my position based on someone else’s opinions. that’s just how we learn and grow.
I will not change my opinion because someone said it’s dumb or personally attacks me. if anything, I’ll double down on that hill just to spite them.
In that case I’m glad we met. Have a nice day. :)
From my experience there is only one poster. They are very angry.
Who are you and how did you get in my sandbox?
