Nice thing, someone mentioned Lemmy there: https://old.reddit.com/r/popculture/comments/1j5jngg/rpopculture_is_closed/mgi48zn/
Wow. I remember when the Digg migration to reddit finally reached critical mass. Feels like this might be it for reddit now. Ha ha. Edit: r/Fednews should probably move over here for safety too.
Apparently not fast enough, because the mention of Lemmy in the comments of the aforementioned Reddit post are what led me to join here today.
Welcome! A few pointers to help you settle in
Feel free if you have any questions
I posted a bunch of comments on that post earlier today! As far as I know they’re still up too
One guy was even trying to argue that it’s too difficult to make an account here.
From what I’ve seen it’s mostly mods of specific subreddits removing comments that promote Lemmy. A few instances do get caught in the site-wide spam filter though.
Yeah, but obviously they are also pretty dumb (they didn’t even consider what would happen if people edited comments after people upvoted then). So, not too hard to get around that.
Yeah, it’s remarkable how “dumb” and crude Reddit automoderation, recommendations, everything seem given how much money they make and use.
Say what you will about Facebook, but their tech stack is so real it’s dystopian.
There’s a mention about a digg reboot at the bottom of the post
Digg is relaunching with one of the original reddit co-founders
Unfortunately people will see that first over the comments mentioning lemmy.
They refuse to shutter porn subs that facilitate the sale of known CSAM but you cannot say Luigi?
Man I’ve been away from reddit for a while I guess. This is the first time Ive heard that. Horrifying, but seems about right
Pffft I love that even Digg is preparing to make a come back
You know you fucked up when Digg is preying on your weakness
I would love for there to be a decent pop culture community on Lemmy to break me out of non-stop doomscrolling. Maybe this will be the kick in the pants to make it happen.
i get a sneaky feeling not that many folks here care about Ariana and Spongebob to the extent we might
It’s Friday, the day where Mr Krabs tells us job well done for making it to the weekend on !bikinibottomtwitter@lemmy.world
You can help posting on !popculture@lemmy.world
Don’t worry guys, you can incite violence here to the hearts content!
