What’s the conversion rate of one MeowMeowBeanz to one Schrute buck?

As a recovering karma whore, I can attest to this.

…? … Oooooohhh. Haha that’s some fine gallows humor.

I mean… You’re not exactly wrong.

Dude! I told you in confidence not to share that info.

I guess I have no choice but to share that @spittingimage@lemmy.world has the world’s biggest human anus. It’s been a scientific mystery about how it got to be so big.

How old were you when you watched it?

Cheesus Ricest dude! I watched it as a 30 something year old and I felt disturbed with scenes in the third act.

Now you have to fill us in. Did you have nightmares and for how long?

In no particular order as to why I left Reddit to join Lemmy:

• Reddit became a chore just to see good content. (This is even after the fact of filtering out unrelated or unwanted subreddits in my feed.)
• The comment sections on Reddit became worse and worse with more joke/meme comments than actually related comments, low effort comments, bot spam, and the burial of your comment for no one to see, (or care to reply to,) if you were to comment on a post or comment more than 24 hours after it’s original posting. (Most of the time it felt like you had maybe 8 hours before it seemed to be a waste to comment.) Why would anyone stick around to comment or reply if nearly no one is going to engage?
• (Like many others have mentioned in the comments,) if you mentioned or talked about anything that wasn’t considered good, you were often blasted with downvotes and/or comments.
• How often you saw rinse and repeat content, questions, and sometimes comments. (I’ll admit. I took part in the rinse and repeat content ‘sharing’ and I wish I hadn’t done it for so long. The karma whoring was real for me.)
• Concerns (then later the reality check,) about how much Reddit is an echo chamber.
• /u/Spez showing us who he really is.
• Not liking the direction Reddit was heading. Writing on the wall when they fired Victoria Taylor
• The API fiasco.
• Movement towards IPO.

Lemmy doesn’t have any of these problems that I’ve experienced. Lemmy feels very much like a grass roots movement and I like that. I wish the communities that I am a part of had more active users, but that will more likely come with time.

No worries. The attempt to recall a memory was good enough.

Happy New Year.

I’d like to give a shoutout to all of the Wikipedia editors who created, edited, and updated obscure Wikipedia pages. The sure number of interesting things I wouldn’t have learned about if it wasn’t for you would be quite limited.

(FYI: There is a community on here for Wikipedia pages worth sharing.)

Ooohh. That would make a lot of sense for this situation.

Yeah, that wasn’t my angle at all. I was just wanting the community of askwomen@lemmy.ca to become active again.

No doubt. I don’t understand why it’s getting hate. I simply used the question I asked on askwomen@lemmy.ca, because it hadn’t gotten any replies.

I genuinely had heard plenty of praise that I checked it out more and really liked what I saw in gameplay. I was going to wait till it went on 25% off then pick it up. Then Xbox Game Studios had the brain dead idea to shut down the whole studio that made one of the best new IPs in recent years. After hearing about this, I decided right there that I wasn’t going to buy it ever.

Seeing this comment once… was enough. But a second time? Sheesh. /j

Thanks. …hey, wait a minute.

Into the depths of Moria and through Lothlórien forest.

I can testify to this. I was there. I was there when Lemmy so valiantly fetched ye old YouTube thumbnails.

I highly recommend going to see Not.GreenDay if they have a show near you. I saw them this year and they definitely sound like the OG GreenDay. They also did a good job of getting the crowd involved and in high spirits.

Was the effect that he eventually popped?
