who is on Lemmy (the sociology of Lemmy)

I dont know if this has been asked before or if this may be a little goofy of a question but I didn’t see anything relating to it and I’m kinda curious what the culture of Lemmy is like and what sort of common things people see. ive been paying attention to interactions but nothing is as good as just asking everyone.

well for me:

  • just passed 50 last month
  • been kicking around ‘PCs’ since the vic-20
  • buun using linux since Mandrake Helios (6.1)
  • have self hosted all sorts (including email for nearly 10 yrs, not any more other than a relay for my lemmy)
  • had a mastodon instance for about 2-3 years - but use mastodon.nz
  • spun up my instance of lemmy just as the exodus started
  • been into tinkering with electronics from childhood

I guess that puts me in the the tech group that seems very common here

other groups that seem well represented are the ‘left’ and lgbqt+

I love the social stingless bees (we only have native solitary bees in NZ)

these aren’t an Apis but Trigona spp.

Even worse. I didn’t have any at all

Long story: short; I fell off a ladder and dislocated and fractured my shoulder back in February and have just had latarjet surgery

meh, it’s those of us that are entering into our 50’s that drove piracy in the early '90s and '00s. Hell, we were copying floppies in the 80s.

You youngins don’t know how lucky you are, we had to push our bits up hill in both directions, in bare feet and the rain

Driving in Japan (jemmy.jeena.net)

Driving in Japan with the wheel on the right side. The first time I did that last year I drove on the wrong side of the road about 5 times and got a shock every time when I saw all the ghost drivers just to quickly realize that it’s me who is driving the wrong way. This year it only happened one time, so my brain seems to...

You are all crazy, it’s how the world should be, drive on the left

Not almost cut my thumb off, the fucking thing ached like I don’t know what, espitally while my wife was squeezing my hand during the ceremony.

That was over 25 years ago and the pain was real

What I really want is something like hybrid of wordpress/lemmy/mastodon…

I would like less micro-blog and more old-school blog with the really good threading/comments of lemmy, and the communities of lemmy (maybe magazines of Kbin/Mbin)

Well the documentation is very nice and filled out.

I think I’ll spin up a test container for a project that my Mrs is starting on that I was going to put on wordpress with federation.

    Been using for what feels like a lifetime, although I went through a few usernames during the late 90s early 00s and somewhere along the way BlueEther or a derivative just stuck, it was after a comment something like “jus putting this out into the blue ether” in a forum post

    Downloading/torrenting kids cartoons

    Hey all. noob-ish pirate here. Skipping long winded post. I’m struggling to find sources to download/torrent kids cartoons. Some are easy, but I’m looking for paw patrol and it’s scarce on 1337. The more modern stuff and the super popular stuff are a little easier though. Not really any information on the Wiki about this...

    I just (in the last week or two) deleted all the pawpatrol / ladybug / bluey torrents as the kids have outgrown them…

    As a dad, talk to your partner

    I didn’t know some the things my wife went through until well after the fact.

    You know that it will get better and easier as the new one grows and family routines develop

    All the best for the coming years from a father of two girls

    Anyone have an interesting blog that uses the WordPress ActivityPub plugin?

    If so, please leave a link/handle as a reply to this post.
