Maybe it’s because the content here just isn’t as vast. I’m nkt going back to reddit for awhile, but there’s so little to see on lemmy to me. Despite numerous subscriptions, I see very few memes and far too much political content. Of that political content it’s all the same. Sometimes this place feels like a hive-mind. Not that Reddit wasn’t, but it depended on the sub. Now it’s shaped by instance and everything here just feels stale

I think this is an issue with people being offended by definitions. Slavery did “help” the economy. Was it right? No, but it did. Mexico’s drug problem helps that economy. Adolf Hitler was “effective” as a leader. He created a cultural identity for people that had none and mobilized them to a war. Ethical? Absolutely not. What he did was horrendous and the bit should include a caveat, but we need to be a little more understanding that it’s a computer; it will use the dictionary of the English language.

1000% Even for a sub dedicated exclusively to memes it’s bad. The whole point of reddit was that there was a culture of content, on discord the content is far too short-lived

Maybe I need to be on ml then. I feel like world is just full of the same.

Absolutely, people act like swapping over is no biggie, but there were all kinds of posts that led to obscure answers and provided such simple and pertinent information. Don’t know something, try a google then ask on reddit and someone will be either super helpful or condescending. It’s going to take a LOOOOOOOONG time for people to really swap if ever.

Going to unr*tard for a sec: Think of the most useless meme you can, the joke is so stupid it’s painfully obvious. The format is old, maybe it’s all pixelated and compressed. That’s a shitpost. It makes no sense, maybe the joke isn’t even obvious because the picture is so absurd. Maybe the joke is overplayed and this is the millionth repost

Ain’t that the truth. Chief pumps out updates like Assassin’s Creeds.

This is how the free internet works. We get paid by free access. It’s expensive to host a server for people to access, this is the trade

Wow… I think this monkey hammered out some Shakespeare.

I MESSAGED A DISCORD MOD AND THEY SAID THEYD MESSAGE SOMEONE ELSE

I think it’s lowered. Lifted and lowered

Not even a meme…. What was google plus? I’ve had a gmail for like 15 years so I must’ve just missed it.

It’s currently the best way to sideload content. You simply download the program to a computer which acts as a server that refreshes your apps. You have to refresh once a week. Sidestore is a fork that spoofs a macbook pro and allows you to completely untether from a server. You still have to refresh once a week.

KEEP CRANKIN BROTHER WE’RE COMIN IN ON OUR HOGS

I don’t know why this is getting downvoted. This is the first real shitpost I’ve seen on this site. I miss r/shitposting….

Thanks, we tend to watch things once then not again, I figure 12TB across 4 drives should hold that pretty well? I just want a buffer of like, 5 episodes per show. Once watched, auto-delete. This should be enough storage no?

Please give me the option to turn it off though, I like swiping just as much as the next guy, but as a proud lurker I’d love it if I could swipe left anywhere and it would just take me back a page

That’s actually kind of messed up. Yeesh, I miss the endless content on reddit, but the Memmy experience has been great

WHO MODS THE REDDIT

On my machine the link goes nowhere. :(
