Fuck you! Hello.
Comment on Average Lemmy Active Users by Month
LostCat005@lemmy.world 11 months agoI just got recommended this sub after posting on reddit re: predatory algos and the necessary regulations needed to protect people and how algos have manipulated the UX so much its disrupted the originally intended purposes; ie insta has effectively become a marketing and advertising platform.
So in response someone suggested finding alternatives to the popular social media sites and used Lemmy as an example.
I have been loving it thus far - its old school reddit.
this is my first comment on lemmy!

Agreed on it being old school reddit! There are some UI wrappers that make it look and feel like old school reddit that I use and love you might enjoy. The wrapper is called mlmym and is open source. There are a few hosts you can use, I use this one: o.opnxng.com

Welcome! So far, in my experience, this is a much friendlier community that… many of the alternatives.

Usually. There’s definitely some who want to take their pound of flesh out of you when you disagree with them on something, but overall not so bad.
SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I disagree strongly with that opinion but respect you as a lemming

Fair enough. My perspective in the last day or two tells me otherwise, but I’m glad you’re having a great experience.
