I'm so sorry
  • The longer I look at this the worse it gets.

  • c/YouShouldKnow should’ve been called c/LemmyTellUSomething
  • No, you're correct. The software was named after the small rodent (lemming). One of the co-creators of lemmy talks about the name here: https://lemmy.ml/post/70319

    It's just that "lemmy" sounds like you're saying "let me" quickly and not enunciating properly.

  • c/YouShouldKnow should’ve been called c/LemmyTellUSomething
  • Ha!

    We should also have a c/LemmyAskYouSomethinRick because that popped into my head when I saw this.

  • Reddit is testing verification labels for brands
  • Can't wait until he renames Reddit to W.

  • What game feels 'timeless' to you?
  • I still play through Final Fantasy VI at least once a year.

  • Please help me choose my next trilogy trilogy
  • People have mentioned Mass Effect so a big +1 to those games as well.

  • Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes?
  • Oh wow, I haven't thought about this film in forever. I really like it as well. 👍

  • should i leave twitter for mastodon toot.io instance
  • Do you follow people you know or strangers?

    You can do both for sure. I didn't follow anyone I knew personally.

    A lot of independent musicians, artists who do art by commission, and self-publishing authors use it to connect with their fanbase in lieu of a personal website.

    I only followed bars to find happy hour specials

    I used it similarly. I only followed a podcast that I listened to and people that posted their art and/or cute photographs of their pets. Mastodon has been pretty great about replacing it in regards to art and pet photos.

    I suppose it depends on what you used Twitter for whether or not Mastodon is a useful alternative. As an example, if you followed a particular celebrity and they don't post on Mastodon then that might be disappointing. All you can do is give it a try for yourself.

  • should i leave twitter for mastodon toot.io instance
  • Should I leave Twitter?

    Yes. You should leave Twitter even if you're not going to go elsewhere.

    For Mastodon toot.io instance?

    If that instance appeals to you, sure.

  • Welp that answers a lot of why all .ml are down
  • My "main" account is on .ml but I went ahead and made an account on another instance just in case. It couldn't hurt imo.

  • lemmy.fmhy.ml is gone [update from the team]
  • Super useful, thanks! 👍
