Free Software crusader. Huge computer nerd.
The default Lemmy interface already combines everything good about old.reddit’s design with additional quality of life features, faster performance, and Fediverse-oriented functionality.
No, I do not want to use an old.reddit clone. Lemmy is already better and can be further improved by the community itself. We should be encouraging newcomers to embrace innovation, not encouraging them to go back to Reddit.
Much love to SDF for still being itself after all these years. Hope to see another 36!
I have over 100 RSS feeds I’ve organized into different categories. It lets me get the latest updates from many websites all in one place. Even though some feeds now only supply a headline or partial article, it’s still a much faster and comfortable experience than relying on Twitter or Reddit to do the same thing.
You’ve just discovered the main problem with centralized platforms like Reddit, Discord, Twitter. The only thing stopping the mods from making a complete archive of the old platform is the Big Tech owners of Reddit. These corporate interests own all your posts, memes, and DMs, forever.
With federated platforms, the community leadership can easily backup, archive, or transfer everything whenever they like. That’s the power of ownership.
I think the big Mastodon push last year has made things a little bit easier for Lemmy. Basic awareness of the fediverse has broken into the mainstream of social media, rather than being a niche interest of Free Software enthusiasts.
Now that Lemmy’s gotten this initial nudge of mainstream support, I’ll be far more engaged here than I ever was on Reddit.
I’m someone who hated season 1. Season 3 is worth the watch and feels like a great coda to TNG. It’s almost like an extended reimagining of “All Good Things” which also ties up a few loose ends from the movies and dedicates more time to showing how the characters have grown as people and, in some cases, parents.
There are some moments where it feels like Discovery or prior Picard, but not enough to weigh down the show.
I’m so glad to see this community make a big push onto Lemmy! We’re making internet history and boldly going where no one has gone before!
Indeed. Currently all emails from this instance have been landing in my spam folder.
Standard Lemmy is actually faster than Old Reddit. See my comparison here.
