What are the bad patterns of Reddit to never repeat on Lemmy?

Reply in thread

I think being a troll should go like this, and I'll use the wiae Tom Scott's words here because he summed it up pretty well

"it turns out that while mocking the government is a reasonably good gag, mocking the government and then having the government not find it funny, that is a really good gag."

The moral here, don't just troll random people with lives to life. Troll the government and arsehole corporations.

It's so nice to see them all growing, but this is just the truth, sorry.

I had to leave the Linux memes community because I swear nearly every post was shitting on Windows. Yes, I get it. Windows isn't all that great. But, much like Ios, it just works for what I need. And I haven't had any issues that weren't ny fault with it.

If the game I play most, and the number one reason why i go on my pc, works on Windows, but won't work on Linux. Which OS is better for me?

I thought all this software war crap era was over. That was shit I cared about when I was 14 or something. Just let it herself use what they want and explain the benefits of alternatives, only if they care.

Lemmy, AITA for disliking copied content from Reddit in the AmITheAsshole community?

I think, and I may be wrong here, but that's for archiving things that could potentially be important. Like, for AITA, someone might asked, and another could look for answers on that situation.

To me, it just seems like archival purposes. Just think how many times you've searched for something, and the best result is reddit. Having all of that hosted here as well, can become a backup incase reddit, some how, fully buries itself. No point losing tons of helpful information.

Edit: I forgot. It doesn't do comments. So, I guess some subs would be a bit more pointless saving. I can see it being helpful for others where comments aren't really needed though, but that doesn't happen often.

Isn't that ideal though? Surely the "above average joe's" would help, and contribute to shape the place into what it can be to reach it's full potential? It'll give the server hosters more time to fix everything up. Certainly a lot of the people already here are going to be a lot calmer in response to bugs and glitches. Whereas if everyone joined straight away, it'll just be like a massive urinal with huge amounts of stress on the servers.

What are some of the best purchases of your life?

A Kawasaki ninja 650. It might not sound like much. But, its given me something to look forward too. Before I was really lost. I thought life just isn't worth living. But now? I still feel like that. But, its given me such a sense of freedom, and, whilst I haven't actually met any other bikers yet. It just feels a lot nicer. Like, when I'm out and I see another, its just a simple not. But, I feel apart of something now.

I've been riding around 2 weeks now. But I still get giddy when I ride. I love it. More than anything I've had before. And I haven't felt like this since I was with my first gf.

This became quite long. Sorry.
