Kind of same, I remember making a login like dropping my bags in an empty apartment like “well this is home now” and my neighbors are trekkies and Linux, as a fan of windows and star wars. Wondering if I could hack it here. Just said fuck it we ball and started posting to try and decorate the place, hoping to be part of the Lemmy that made a difference and gets us noticed among the turmoil.
Seems like we didnt quite make it compared to BlueSky as a reddit/Twitter supplanted, but thats ok, I think in retrospect I’ve made a fair number of people happy to see my posts, and hope I have at least helped a couple of (mostly) meme communities get either noticed or traction. (Sorry jojokes, I just ran out guys, I didnt want to dig into low effort to keep posting, people deserve some standard of quality)

lol this is how I feel being on Lemmy.ml when instance drama goes down. I was just trying to join Lemmy and this is what was offered at the time! I don’t even know what a tankie is! 🤷♂️

That is hilarious, I still don’t watch Star Trek but Linux is an absolute Revelation bro! I am totally converted over the last few months!
