Fediverse

Glad to see community rules are being enforced

"am I the idiot? Nooo, everyone else is just wrong. Ladidadidaaaaaa"

OP, you upload AI slop and crop out artists names every time you post. If you want a community that appreciates your actions, you could not be further from that place. I'm glad you feel unwelcome here, because to many of us, you are. Please go back to reddit.

I feel there needs to be disclaimer on Lemmy servers/introduction page to warn people about negativity on the platform, but I don’t think it will ever happen.

or you know, follow the damn community rules so your posts don't get deleted.

Lemmy Admins and moderators seem to have a control fetish

have you considered the reason for this may be your posts and takes are just shit?

Reddit would have definitely been jumping down your shirt for cropping artist's names off their work before sharing them, too. 🙄

Why were you cropping names out of comics? Why did you post political content in lemmyshitposts?

On a side note it feels like a lot of Lemmy servers are suffering financially and might close soon

What ones exactly?

All I hear is "Waaa waaaa waaaa!".

This post belongs in powertrippingbastards, not here.

You're an adult (presumably).

Follow the rules or get bent. 🤷

consider this - Lemmy is not reddit.

Here is my notes from you using Lemmy:

Stop.

no ability to upload media with the same ease and speed of Reddit

I can just paste an image or whatever directly into a comment field and it's automatically uploaded and linked. For new posts, it's drag-and-drop right onto the browser. This might be instance-specific, but what functionality were you hoping for?

Don't let the door hit you on the way out

I actually have been digging Lemmy a lot more than Reddit. I love that I can tag users to remember things about them. You have earned the tag “Dillhole who AIs artists names away”. Thank you for your service (not really, you’re a still a dillhole).

Well, yes, but how is all that differs from Reddit? I see Lemmy as an exact copy of Reddit, but with more accessible API and fewer moderators. And fewer people, of course, too. Oh, and lags. All servers, except for some big ones, lag.

Lemmy users would like to have a working cancel culture so much that they would have no problem deepthroating a dick to get it;

C'mon if deepthroating a dick is the way to get something, 50% of lemmy users wouldn't care about what this something is.

All these points you mentioned are easily found on Reddit too.

Ahh I think this is an April Fools Day prank

TL:DR

Just another name to mute.

There is core limitations on Lemmy which cannot be fixed even on the long term( for example finding communities via search. Results from .world is very different from the result that your instance fetch

Lemmy Federate is designed to overcome this limitation through automated community federation.

no ability to upload media with the same ease and speed of Reddit,...etc)

This depends on the frontend or app you choose to use. Most Lemmy apps support in-app media uploads.

Herd mentality is very deep on Lemmy, compared to other social media websites

Herd mentality is just as much of a problem of Reddit; there's just more users there, so more 'herds' are able to form.

Lemmy users would like to have a working cancel culture so much that they would have no problem deepthroating a dick to get it

Grouping all Lemmy users together falsely assumes they all share the same opinions and blocking preferences. In any case, instances attract users by tailored moderation practices; users should join the instance that best matches their preferences. While some viewpoints—such as those promoting fascism, transphobia, or racism—are generally unwelcome across major instances, a certain baseline is needed in civilized society to have discussions in which no one is excluded on the basis of who they are.

About moderation, I feel the only outcome that will happen is bad moderation (IMO) will keep happening on the platform till either the servers hosting communities go down or till the mod become inactive.

A very broad generalization about a wide array of moderators and rules across communities, but if you don't like the way a community or instance is run, just block it and move on. I gladly block all of lemmy.ml and my All feed is better for it.

On a side note it feels like a lot of Lemmy servers are suffering financially and might close soon,

What gives that impression? While donating towards server costs is important, and a handful of notable instances such as lemm.ee have closed, most instances seem to be doing fine.

while Lemmy developers did not even try to help them by implementing third party upload functionality(Imgbox, catbox, imgur,...etc) in the app and the web front end to lighten the load on the server admins.

Have you tried alternative frontends and/or apps? The default Lemmy frontend is known to be simplistic in comparison and should be considered more of a reference implementation than anything.

Ultimately, the Threadiverse is still relatively small and will hopefully continue to improve as Lemmy, Piefed, and Mbin are developed further. All of the core features of Reddit are present, without the commercialization that has left it degraded.

I would stick to topics outside of politics and memes.

You should’ve seen this place when maga activist was killed last year. Also can’t see none of your images except last two, lol.

I agree like 70% but it extremly depends on where on Lemmy you are.

E: And I partly definitely disagree:

There is core limitations on Lemmy which cannot be fixed even on the long term( for example finding communities via search. Results from .world is very different from the result that your instance fetch, no ability to upload media with the same ease and speed of Reddit,…etc);

Never had such problems. I can find all the communities I want to find. Most communities I can't find are on instances defederated by my instance for really good reasons. Media upload speed? Depends on your internet I guess. And types of media... Yeah video-upload would be neat (even tough I don't really need it), but Reddit had the same problem last time I used it and catbox.moe etc. aren't that bad of alternatives. Also Lemmy is young, video-upload might be possible at some point, surely no problem which "cannot be fixed even on the long term".

Meanwhile here there is no modbox functionality which complicates talking with mods;

... Just write them a DM? The few times I had to contact a mod this was the easy way to go.

Some Lemmy users seem to be easy to obsessive over things.

It's the internet. There are people who are really into stuff, so what? It's like Reddit on speed.

On a side note it feels like a lot of Lemmy servers are suffering financially and might close soon, while Lemmy developers did not even try to help them by implementing third party upload functionality(Imgbox, catbox, imgur,…etc) in the app and the web front end to lighten the load on the server admins. Right now most Lemmy servers I know of are protected by Cloudflare and pictures uploaded on some servers don’t open natively(you need to click it as a normal link and pass cloudflare verification to see image).

You do can upload media via catbox & Co. And I for my part can see most of the media, at least when I couldn't it was due to the media being deleted. There might have been some cases of federation issues or stuff, but they really are seldom.

Wow . Steep escalation at bullet #4. Ha.

Here are my notes

Whichever side of this you land on... confirmation bias is a hell of a drug.
