Damn it's sad that this post even exists. I hope things get better for you chief.

Hello fell Reddit Refugees! Yeah I've been a near daily reddit user on Sync for Reddit (Sync Pro) since 2014 or so. Now leading up to the API shutdown I was using reddit about once a week and you already know I had to use Sync one last time on the final day, but

I've mostly been using Lemmy for about two weeks now. I've tried a lot of apps (Jeroba, Thunder, Liftoff), but ultimately I also ended up on wefwef. It's seems to be the one of snappier ones so far. It's super strange because since it is themed after Apollo, it looks like I have an iPhone app on my Android! I know that when Sync for Lemmy comes out (about six weeks I think) I'll jump ship immediately, but for now I'm really liking wefwef.

I've made it my mission to lurk less on Lemmy then I did on Reddit so I can try and help the platform succeed with some small amounts of content that I can contribute. Recently I've been very interested in AI image generation, so I made a community centered around that. I also made a community centered around video game giveaways to hopefully share more wholesome content on the platform. Overall, I'm hoping that since Lemmy is so new that all of us can take some control in steering it in an overall better direction than Reddit. I'm personally on team No Karma, since I think it makes Lemmy a lot less toxic and a lot less about having something to brag about and more about being something to be proud of.

Good luck to everyone who's a recovering Reddit addict with their quests to become Fediverse addicts!

Edit: Wefwef accidentally posted my comment 3 times saying it failed to post. So I guess there's still some kinks to work out!

Around 2017 I spent three days on and off trying to diagnose why my laptop running elementary OS had no wifi support. I reinstalled the wifi drivers and everything countless times. It worked for many days initially then just didn't one day when I got on the laptop. Turns out I had accidentally flipped the wifi toggle switch while it was in my bag. I forgot the laptop had one. Womp womp.

Can we talk about how he is directing people to not donate to him, but instead donate to help others in his area. Absolute Chad.

Just saw a post about this on TikTok and every one in the comments where cracking jokes and basically saying it was good she died. Couldn't believe it. Whether or not you agree with how she ran YouTube, there's no reason to be so cruel to a parent who died just after having to bury their own child. Glad Lemmy is being more thoughtful and respectful about this horrible situation.

Good night.

We did it Lemmy!

Gotta get used to saying that.

Used to be a big Nova user, but since I found Niagra I've never gone back. It's just way too clean and simple. It drastically reduces the amount of time I spend opening apps on my phone and I don't have to think about how to do the optimal home screen layout or set up app drawer categories.

I feel like this group of people are the kind that would already be on Linux though. If you're that anti Microsoft why be on any version of Windows when such a great suitable replacement that also still works on these older systems exists?

The best part of this meme is the shoddy watermark coverup job!

Evoland games are a neat commodity. The whole "game grows in complexity" gimmick is pretty well done, and their chock full of references to games of the past. Definitely not the peeps I'd expect to make a massive space game that was actually good though.

That's seems pretty likely. It really rubs me the wrong way that they specifically name drop Mastodon in the sign up page for Threads. It definitely seems like a way to avoid being held accountable for having a monopoly.

Same actually. What all have you signed up for? I've only signed up for Lemmy and kbin so far.

I spend way less time on here than I did reddit. Not to upset about it though, because I feel like it's only improved my mental health!

I ran my Pebble Time into the ground, so I'm hyped as fuck for this. I bought it in my early highschool years and wore it nearly daily until last year when the rumble motor finally gave out. Still wear it from time to time, but it not buzzing for notifications is a bit of a deal breaker for me.

I bought a replacement and it's so pristine I didn't want to risk slowly damaging it at work, but now I'm charging that bitch up and running it into the ground until new Pebble comes out. Thanks for sharing OP, this news made me week!

Bonus, here's what mine looked like as of a few years ago right when the vibration went out. You can see I slapped a skin on it to cover up the bezel scratches, but the screen still looks totally fine!

Really hoping for a new Legends game. Legends Arceus was the first pokemon game I felt the desire to finish in ten years. It was so unique and interesting. It was very very very rough around the edges, but here's to hoping that the smaller scope could make a game that's more polished than Scarlet and Violet and maybe a bit prettier too.

Honestly at this point I almost feel like the only way a Pokemon game with decent graphics could release is if Gamefreak outsources the development.

There are three things holding me back from making the switch full time, I use a stream deck from Elgato for automating a lot of tasks, I stream VR titles from Steam, and I have an Nvidia graphics card.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks like just the breath of fresh air the 2D Platformer Mario games desperately need. While I enjoyed the "New Super Mario Bros." games, there's no denying they've gotten very stale and if you've played one you've basically played them all. This looks entirely unique and different.
