I’m still trying to figure out how to use it in the phone 😂
It takes a couple days . Trust me bro
I only saw him in concert once.
no. It’s difficult to recommend it, “no it’s good trust me, there’s like none of the subs you like, and also you should go to the settings and block this list of words, also block these instances, and also do you know what a Tankie is?”
If I talk with people about Lemmy, I’ll usually replace “lemmy” with “this social media I use, kinda like Mastodon, but for Reddit instead of Twitter” as to avoid them joining lemmy.ml and thinking that that’s the entirety of Lemmy.
I’m fairly new to lemmy and have no idea what you’re talking about. Could you give a little breakdown?
A lot of people block political keywords and related communities, and most niche subs aren’t there
List of instances to block please and why ?
No. Should I ever mention enshittification or reducing exposure to “big tech” then usually tinfoil hat jokes at my expense ensue
Yep, my dad No discussion about it, we both just happened to join
nope, I’m the only one I know irl that uses any type of the fediverse
Yes actually, sadly it was just a one time talk and I never spoke to him again.
My husband recently rediscovered Lenny again and a friend joined. They both find it hard to stay since it’s pretty quiet and don’t have many active niches.
Unfortunately I can barely find people online that use Lemmy
just go to lemmy
there are bunch of lemmy users there
a few kbinners and other fediversers too
I thought we were all bots.
Hmm. I thought I was a paid schill.
Still trying to figure out the getting paid part.
It depends on what you’re peddling.
MAGA gets paid in lies, and progressives in disappointment. Liberals and conservatives get a weekly stock tip call from Pelosi or Tuberville, respectively. Tankies get paid in vodka and cigarettes, and libertarians in crypto.
Whoa, hey, I could be getting vodka and cigarettes? I’m switching teams.
Yeah that just makes being a tankie sound cool!
Yep. Friend browses slrpnk.net regularly.
No. Even when I look in the mirror, I deny it.
No, I don’t think I know anyone else that interacts with the fediverse. there are probably a handful that I know that are even aware of it.
I joined Lemmy when the API changes happened and tried to get a couple nerdy friends to join but they didn’t bite
It’s easy to find other Lemmy users IRL. Show up to any Linux meet up, and roughly 5-10% seem to use Lemmy.
how do you find Linux meetups?
Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.
So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.
