    I have been pretty comfortable here because I’m into nerdy things and most of us here are nerds. In fact, the only people that cared about reddit locking down the API were nerds or people jumping on the bandwagon because it was the next big thing. Others didn’t care and just wanted reddit back and a lot of people that were here in the beginning went back to reddit. We will probably grow overtime but there’s no point in wondering why lemmy isn’t more popular, just participate in the communities you like.


  • Teeworlds. When I was a kid I searched up “free online multiplayer games on pc” and it actually led me to this Wikipedia article full of open source games. I tried out teeworlds and I was hooked on it and it led me to playing other open source games like cube 2 and open arena. In my head, the term open source meant “free stuff”. Searching for open source stuff led me to discovering Linux and trying it though the Wubi installer and eventually moving to it a few years later.
