Sopuli.xyz is a very confusing and off putting name for newbies.

Tired of Reddit? Come to Lemmy! We got:
😂 Memes
🫘 Beans
👖 Jeans
🤡 Tankies
🚫 No pooping
- Sorry. I couldn't resist. SVG file if anyone actually wants this shitpost.
  
  That's good! Feel free to post it as its own post here!
- Also star trek! So. Much. Star Trek
  
  You should use Linux and look at my programmer socks 👍
  
  You seem to be implying that there's such a thing as too much trek, which is preposterous
  
  More trek!!!
- More mobile apps that you'll ever need
  
  Should I stop working on my Lemmy app 😅
  
  Care to list all the apps updated at least once in the last 2 months and without ads? Just asking for a friend.
- Well, some pooping.
Can someone make a version of this saying lemmy has no adds. I think that honestly is the best selling point for reddit users at this point.
- Im brand new here and digging it. The lack of ads is a big part of that. That and the chiller vibe. I do wish it had gifs/videos. Not just images & text
  
  Welcome! There are a few gifs, posted one on [email protected] yesterday
- Here you are.
  
  Btw, the source file (SVG) is available on my Git repo on Codeberg ;)
  
  Thanks for making this, and especially using an excellent design in a shareable meme format that pitches Lemmy simply to users.
  
  One day we may need to have ads to pay the bills if we have another massive Reddit exodus. What are your thoughts on creating an alternate one that says something like “your data not tracked or sold”?
  
  Merci Bien
  
  Thanks! I'll update the OP
- no ads public modlogs, chiller mods
- Reddit users will tell you they used their revanced version of their old client and there are no apps
  
  Some might — but the type of people I’m trying to attract just use the mobile app
Maybe could be a little bit more professional-looking :D
- I prefer it over anything that looks too slick, because then it feels like a corporation made it
- It's a meme :)
  
  The two pinned posts in this community are more serious
- Never understood this point. There's no way you can move your account (including full history) to another instance, right?
  
  The main point is being able to still access all of the communities if your admin goes rogue (similar to what Reddit is doing). That's possible on Lemmy, you export / import your settings and you're set.
  
  Keep the same username, add a link to your new and old profiles and the bio, and you just moved instances. You may have lost your comments history, but there is no karma anyway, so why care? And it's still accessible on your old account.
  
  No, there isn't.
- It's true, not sure what you mean?
Needs more .jpg
Thank you @[email protected] and @[email protected]
- You're welcome!
- You're welcome.
  
  Note that I just updated it to answer guaraguaito's remark regarding Lemmy being ad-free. Also, the SVG file is available for anyone to play with (it's SVG file, made with Inkscape, using the DejaVu Serif font)
I found a lot of good things on Lemmy... But, I can never go 'full-Lemmy', because I hate the politics crap.
- Politics is life my dude get used to it
- Block them. Use filters: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/36045259 Makes it more bearable
  
  Thank you! This is what I need. I prefer to block based on words rather than blocking the whole instance thing. :)
- We honestly need more normies to balance it out a bit, that's for sure.
- what do you actually mean when you say you hate politics? you hate having to think about how things suck? or you hate having to watch marginalized people fight for their rights?
  
  I'm assuming they mean they want an experience that isn't dominated by politics. Which I totally understand and I agree with. It would be great if there were lots of active communities that were around hobbies and interesting and fun casual things. I guess that can only be achieved by reaching a certain scale though.
We maybe should downplay the 'no ads' thing. I can definitely see a day when ads are required to support some sites.

I like that we'll have a choice on that day, but I do see that day.
- no, you can always make your own instance without ads, there will always be many without them
- Here's a version without the ad
  
  Ironically, it got added because someone in the comments wanted it
  
  And here is a link to Git repo with the two PNG and the SVG, aka the editable file for anyone to play with and change it as they like.
  
  Could be worth posting the two versions/links in the OP?
- I agree. I think it’d be better to change that part to something like “your data not sold or tracked”.
  
  I think trying to go down that road could be a bad path, because it definitely could be. In a lot of ways, Lemmy is kind of the opposite of all those privacy first deals.
We've got that home grown bean feeling
