    Lemmy feels like seeing Reddit grow from nothing with the small community and more serious tone.

    This time however, it’s ours.

    Vile? What’s so vile on Lemmy?

    Can someone direct me to the right communities? 😜

        I’ve been lurking reddit lately, to see what propaganda the normies in the US are exposed to, and I found this thread fucking hilarious.

        Every comment is complaining about how this will be the death of reddit. None of them realize Reddit already died years ago, and they’re just getting high off the ashes.

      so small and bitter but you just smile through it and say “it’s so good! 😢”?
      maybe I don’t know how to grow stuff…

        You kind of just tipped your hand at your gardening ability. And also that you’ve never had a real tomato.

          I argue mostly everyone here never had a real banana. No, the ones in the stores aren’t the original flavor.

            Well, the one in the stores are real bananas. They aren’t Gros Michel bananas, but that’s because Gros Michel went extinct before I was born (and I’m not exactly young anymore.) We might lose the Cavendish before I die.

            Supposedly the “banana flavor” in candy is closer to a Gros Michel than to a Cavendish.

              Also: Gros Michel bananas have slippery peels. Cavendish do not! That’s where the weird trope with no remaining connection to real life comes from.

    I don’t get the hate this place gets. It’s been really interesting watching Lemmy’s growing pains over the last two-ish years and all the changes it has undergone. The whole concept of the Fediverse is fascinating to me and has been a genuine delight to explore.

      I blame Tankies. They’re too aggressive with their “liberals this, liberals that” bullshit, which drives a way a lot of people cause that makes Lemmy look like a MAGA-infested shithole to anyone who doesn’t know what a Tankie this.

      Hexbear and LemmyGrad’s bullshit almost made me quit Lemmy day one, until I learned how instances work and how to block them. I imagine that less-determined redditors will take one look at this place, see a liberal-bashing post, and then immediately fuck off.

      I wish Tankies would just stay in their own god damn space, and keep their bootlicking politics to themselves. They’re ruining Lemmy.
