There's nothing wrong with using Reddit, Twitter, and other mainstream site still while being active on fediverse.

I see a lot of posts on fediverse trashing reddit, Twitter, spez, musk and so on, and rightfully so. But like it or not, the mass majority of users on the internet still use these sites, and some of us still want to interact with the friends and communities we are a part of on those sites. And there's nothing wrong with that...

Just because a political meme agrees with your political views does not make it funny

I actually enjoy humidity

I’ve been to New Orleans at the end of summer when it’s supposedly bad but I enjoyed it. It almost makes the heat a little bit more bearable because...

User counts are not a good metric of actual growth for Lemmy

I’m seeing a lot of celebratory posts around in various communities regarding the explosive “growth” over the last couple days. Meanwhile, I’m seeing posts about the registration exploit, and how even just to test it out, the guy reporting it created tens of thousands of accounts on an instance in a matter of minutes....
