mlsus @sh.itjust.works as with a lot of other people, i joined here because im tired of reddit, but i like lemmy more anyway, it’s just better in a lot of ways and less filled with bots and advertisements as other platforms
honestly, even i went off of lemmy for a bit, not because i dont like lemmy, but because every time i reloaded the page, it would sign me out, and i couldn't save any settings, it seems to be happening across most lemmy instances right now
there’s also the lemmy.world 195 which used to be called 196 but renamed in honor of this one
there is no difference, a hard j (like in jacket) is the same thing as "dzh", just "dzh" is more spelled out instead of just being a name for it
supposedly there's going to be a permanent protest on June 30th if they don't revert the API changes after this one, can't wait to see what spez thinks then
it's not as big right now, but if you're using Active sorting that could make it even worse, try using Hot, New, Top Day, or my personal favorite, New Comments, which is similar to new but anything that still has an active discussion will come up again
i use brave search as well, but i wish they hadn’t replaced the search section with a link to google or bing
from my understanding, active shows the posts gaining the most comments, but new comments gets the posts ordered by the last time a new comment was added, somewhat similar, but active is a lot slower
i do like how it's a nice blend between new posts and popular posts, i might switch to it
it has happened
it just passed midnight in EST, and some of the largest subreddits (e.g. r/funny) have just gone dark. goodbye, reddit!
same, i like mastodon but i definitely like lemmy a lot more
it’s quite cool how people on Lemmy and Mastodon can talk to each other, the fediverse connects not just across instances but even across platforms
just like putting a bit of hot water in the scooper if it doesn't melt fast enough
i get putting a bit of hot water in it, but spitting in it to get it to melt faster?
ive been looking around lemmy for a while just to get the feel of it, but i probably should actually start commenting and posting now
