Aaaand it's gone, and I've been banned from the sub.
got 80,000 views and 1300 upvotes before is disappeared though, so I see that as a win, I'm sure a few people signed up.
To be fair, I was spamming should have read the rules better, a warning would have been nice.
I'm here because of that post lol
Same lol
Welcome! We've got memes on deck at [email protected] and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got [email protected] to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at [email protected] or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful [email protected] or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like [email protected] and [email protected] . [email protected] is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies, but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. For most instances you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distant check [email protected]
Wait. I'm too new to understand the second part of this. What are Tankies? What's up with the .ml instance? Is the [email protected] like an observatory of .ml shenanigans? Sorry, I'm honestly out of the loop
Edit: interesting responses. Thank you all for your input! :)
There's a diagram that illustrates this pretty well:
Is the [email protected] like an observatory of .ml shenanigans?
Yes, it was started as an observatory of lemmygrad.ml, but it's also relevant to lemmy.ml and hexbear.net (the Tankie triad). There are also [email protected], which just focuses on all kinds of tankies from all instances, [email protected], which focuses on disinformation (again, from all instances) and [email protected], which focuses on moderator overreach (for all instances). It's also the official, approved and recommended way of complaining about mod action here on lemmy.dbzer0.com.
Welcome!
Welcome!
Welcome
"excessive promotion", right.
You're doing great work.
Banned from r/BuyFomEU due to excessive promotion...
How are people supposed to behave on that sub?
Really? I was able to comment a couple of minutes ago.
I still see Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/BuyFromEU.
You can comment but I think it's just "Hidden" idk
No… you are doing an amazing job. Like that’s wild and absolutely phenomenal!
Will add to the presumably long list, I signed up because of the post.
I suspect it wouldn't matter if you posted it once or posted it a hundred times. Lemmy is a rival service, and plenty of people have been banned for mentioning it before.
Seems like an odd sub to promote Lemmy in.
They were likely posting about the BuyFromEU Lemmy community.
I think you should contact the moderation team. I'd be really curious to hear what they have to say is "excessive" about you informing people of EU-based alternatives to Reddit...
If nothing else it'll be a good laugh here on fedi.
I signed up!
So much talk about duplicate communities, which is just so weird to me, seeing as reddit also constantly has duplicate communities despite being centralized :D which one the main one is also sometimes changes based on events/drama
Seems to me just people being resistant to change just because it's change.
It's also my biggest complaint, but I avoid it by just browsing local all.
Yeah but that's what I'm saying, this happens in exactly the same way on Reddit too
When you search for a community just pick the biggest one. Really all there is to it. Honestly reddit had the same issue with similarly named subs
I remember duplicate communities seemed like it would be a problem, until you experience it and realise it's actually a feature of the fediverse.
I was just so used to the centralised mentality. I honestly have a hard time putting myself back in that headspace…
Duplicate communities are a good thing anyway.
It's crazy that on Reddit a community can get hijacked by some fucking weirdo who has control of things basically forever.
I like that the top comment went from “there are too many communities I want just one” to “Im joining to make it better for others”.
Now that Reddit sucks, this app is sure to take off. I’ve been banned for 3 days, but you best believe when I’m back I’m going to be recommending this app to people.
Thank you!
Checkout https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/fedibridge it's commited to helping guide people to Lemmy.
I like to use something like
Try out the European-Hosted Reddit alternative called Lemmy, https://phtn.app/
It also has a mobile app: https://vger.app/settings/install
To guide people.
You can check out, but you can never leave.
I just left a comment 2 years ago or so that got me permanently banned and came here and never looked back. Can't get my wife to switch because there's not enough stuff here. She got an account but just went back 2 days later.
Great quote but one of the points is that Lemmy makes it easier to switch between servers haha!
I feel that the best thing about federated social like Lemmy is just that there's no reason to engagement farm. Like I could get big on Lemmy but unless I'm able to direct that traffic somewhere else effectively, who cares?
but how will our social media platforms achieve Infinite Growth Forever without brand content??
Well done!
Welcome to our little hell pit, you new rascals! :)
I'm not European but isn't Lemm.ee American?
Lemm.ee is European.
sunaurus (the owner) is from Estonia
And the instance is currently hosted in Finnland.
nice
