Threads

Murdoch Alive Check was just an amusing programming project that made me laugh that I made for reddit before they tripped and fell face-first into the pavement....

I decided to set up my own instance to give me more control over my lemmy experience. But I had already subscribed to lots of communities on several other instances....

Just saw a post on reddit alternatives and there was a comment inviting users to laguna.chat. I went and checked it out and the trending communities list included, ‘jews did 911’, ‘killnirs’, ‘hitler was right’, and 'Fuck Nirs’. One of the user accounts was u/HangNi***rs....

I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help....

It’s been a rough day. First I tried the lemmy-easy-deploy script because, hey, I’m lazy. That failed, so I then tried the ansible playbook and had some success with it. At first, Let’s Encrypt was not working, and I had to sort out my dynamic dns provider....

I have lots and lots of thoughts about my time on reddit, how this site now makes me feel, and how I’m excited to be on Lemmy. I’ll fill this place with content when I get time. Hello and Welcome.
