Oh wow, it's odd that only those are showing. Admittedly I've been kind of lax about making the weekly threads, but there's certainly a lot more than four in the last two years!
Perhaps someone on your inatance was last subscribed to it 2 years ago.
When you subscribe, your instance doesn't tend to fetch older posts, only posts made after subscribing.
I've never experienced less angst than here on Lemmy honestly, and mostly good faith disagreement.
Reddit is still bad faith capital of the internet, at least where people first sound like they're worth arguing with. I haven't touched a conversation anywhere else in years though.
Also I dared suggest that Mozilla isn't the devil and Firefox is still kinda the only browser preventing a full chromium monopoly on awfulsystems. Banned.
I chose the Lemmy devs’ instance thinking it would get bug fixes fastest. Had I known that this leads to constant discrimination, I wouldn't have, jeez.
It's so much better than Reddit, especially since that shit hole promotes the controversial posts and comments that lure people in to argue. I was on there a few days back and almost got sucked in.
That's not the point of downvotes. If you're assuming people are downvoting you just to make you feel bad, you're taking it way to personally.
Upvotes are funny too. I like what you posted, but can’t be bothered to articulate why. So I’m gonna click a button at you and hope it makes you feel good.
Downvotes are for when i believe the argument is in bad faith to begin with, or feel the other will be unreceptive to criticism, and i have better things to do than internet argument.

Yes! Jesus, if you have to ask…
Fuck you in particular. I don’t know why and I don’t care.
Fucking thanks, for fucks sake!
You’re fucking welcome, for fuck’s fuck.
Bloody hell, now I feel fucking better.
Well that’s just fucking great. No. Really. It’s fucking great.
I am visiting NYC right now and this is exactly the attitude I’ve observed.
I think it's fun where you start recognizing regular posters and commenters here, like a friend group or something.
Hey, it’s @pentastam! I remember you.
I upvoted you before:
Wow small world.
Oh hey!! Hi!! 👋
It's like we're all regulars at the fringe internet bar lol

I get this every time I have to play devil's advocate. People get SO DAMN MAD on here despite their poorly argued positions...
People barely know why they believe something, let alone why someone else should believe the same.
On my client I see 4 posts in the last 2 years, is that right?

This seems to happen a lot on Lemmy and I have no idea why
Only one of those four is a weekly post
Your Lemmy instance only fetches posts from an other instance's community if at least 1 person on your instance is subscribed to it.
If that's the case why do I see random posts over 2 years
When I subscribe it should load them all

My dad can beat up your dad.
My dad can beat off your dad.
You shut up, stupid brother in law.
Maybe, if he can get past my Dad's armed security.
Excuse me my dad knows Nintendo.
My Dad is Mr Nintendo
My dad is Ms Nintendo
Oh, wait…
What are you doing, step-sister?
He has three lives to dodge the lasers then. No continues.
That's because you're defederated from Hexbear
Hahaha yeah! And not to forget lemmygrad.

Sus coming from an ml user
I chose the Lemmy devs’ instance thinking it would get bug fixes fastest. Had I known that this leads to constant discrimination, I wouldn't have, jeez.
Most .ml users sign up because of things other than the instance's politics
.ml bad, random .ml user likely not bad

Lemmy: "Photos of cats? Sorry, this is the argument room, Mastodon is down the hall."
Alice is a Russian Op who infiltrates the Queen of Heart's Court to bring it down from the inside.
This is why nations need stricter prohibitions against illegal immigration.
why Russian? What if she's fr*nch!?
Too real 😂 Best Lemmy skill is learning when to close the tab and drink some water.
I don't open my notifications unless I'm prepared. Which usually means like a week after which works for me quite well.
I don’t open my notifications.
Unless I feel like arguing with someone lol
Fuck you for no apparent reason.
I’ve been told on Lemmy that wanting more progressive DNC candidates makes me MAGA sooooo…
Meh, people getting mad at me is not a big deal. I've been living with it since I was 5.
Lemmy is where manufactured outraged goes when it wants to be angry.
Downvotes are so funny.
I'm mad at you, but can't be bothered to articulate why. So I'm gonna click a button at you and hope it makes you feel bad.
I don't. It makes me feel schadenfreude, my good chum.

I'm upvoting you in hopes that it all goes to your head, inflating your ego and eventually leading to your downfall.
See, you broke the rule - vote, don't articulate. Never let 'em know your next move. /s
Yeah they're agree/disagree buttons! I upagreed with your comment
I down voted your comment because it was terrible, don't care if you feel bad or not.

I hide comment scores with ublock origin. They just prevent real discussion. I also default sort by new, though I wish there were a random.
Upvote: "this is a good lemmy comment/post"
Downvote: "this is not a good lemmy comment/post"
Tasty!
Itchy.
Bitchy.
