Maybe it’s because I remember the old internet, but I have a lot of patience for jankiness if I enjoy something.
It’s fun watching it all happen
It’s fun making it happen (◕‿◕)
yep, totally :) i dunno what’s so good about it but I feel infinitely better browsing lemmy than the R platform. really does remind me of that 2007 era of internet times where it was just fun and there weren’t these massive social media platforms all over the internet. Fediverse is reminding me of all of those good times and thank you to everyone that’s here for making this happen. I’ve not seen a platform like this actually get the userbase it needs
I’ve been enjoying looking through all the different instances people are commenting from, seeing if there’s any new communities I might be interested in. It’s a bit like a treasure hunt. My feed has definitely been getting pretty active now that I’ve subscribed to a few different instances.
It’s a little addicting, right? Sometimes I’ll be sitting at my PC and realize I’ve just been hunting for new communities the whole time instead of browsing the ones I already sub to.
Might wanna check out !imageai@sh.itjust.works, it’s one of the finest offerings from our humble instance.
Lmk if that link works, I’m still figuring out how to link things appropriately.
Yeah, back when almost all content online was just people having fun on barebones websites, in any random forum or corner of the web they could. Nobody was trying to become an influencer, churn out content for profit, or tiresomely push politics. The internet wasn’t real life.
Yep. I miss those times. At least we can relive some of it here.

Even if I can’t comment with my lemmy.world account, I’m just happy to be here
Why can’t you comment with your Lemmy.world account?
I can’t even upvote with it. It’s been acting so wonky. I tried logging out of a couple of my apps (Memmy, Mlem, Liftoff, and Thunder) and logging back in, but no dice :(
lemm.ee ftw
I had the same issues and tried the same things. I updated memmy today (the only one I’m really using). Logged back in and It’s working again so far.
I’m upvoting and commenting with my lemmy.world account. I had the same issue off and on for the past few days but since I’ve logged out and back in today it has worked fine.
*Specially because of all the craziness
Don’t drive angry. Don’t drive angry.
Dude, I am here for it. It’s great.
It’s a blast. Like, the content ain’t much, but the quality makes it surpass my former web experiences by far
It reminds me of early Reddit, in the best of ways
It’s a grand old time
Well, Phil, that’s one I happen to agree with.

I peg you as a glass is half empty kinda guy, am I right?
^ 3:10 on that clip
all my favorite movies have bowling
For real
of course this is fun
Left Reddit’s circlejerk just for another circlejerk about how your social media of choice is better
Very early Reddit was full of Fark refugees complaining about Fark. It works itself out 😆
Yeah this is slashdot to Reddit hopefully
I was a farker
I mean, it is, jankey and weird but feels like the early Internet
The stupid comments are starting to get to me lol
I’m saying I like it. Some people are saying they don’t like it. Who is jacking off who? Nice double post btw
This circle jerk is better. That’s how.
I feel like a lot of people removed about the circlejerking on Lemmy are actually just jealous of how much fun we are having and/or don’t have a great sense of humor. I haven’t laughed this frequently on the internet probably ever.
I’m a clever person who is enjoying the opportunity to participate in some erudite banter with like-minded individuals. Sue me.
just waiting to see how things go. Real potential here

Heel yea
BEANS?!!?
Yesss I’m having a nice time.
Same tbh. Even if the community remains at ~130k active users, that’s enough to make the community entertaining, useful, wholesome, etc.
