@Pulptastic @lostwonder I don’t know why people are holding on. If u/spez can do what he is doing now who says he won’t do it again? Let’s say he let’s third-party apps back. It’s a matter of time when he shuts it down, this time for good!
@MudSkipperKisser @MiddleWeigh Welcome. You only need one account. With one account you can talk and see post and everywhere. Best thing about having a local account is having your own frontage of all the communities you follow. Just like Reddit in it’s own way
@Confuzzeled I signed up when the blackout started on the 12th I think lots of us where just trying to find a new home and came to whatever was open lol I was on lemmy.ml realized it was crashing then came to lemmy.world and haven’t looked back
@phil299 You realize that the only way through this is to talk about it right? It’s like breaking up with someone you are with for years then they just f up and try to forgive them but it’s too late
@DaughterOfMars True that. I did my own research and now know what the fediverse is about and wish I didn’t jus blindly follow people. I could have joined an instance of what I liked. Oh well lesson learned. There needs to be a faq about the fediverse before people just come.
@DaughterOfMars That’s why you do your research and create an account on a successful instance so you don’t have that problem. I have a lemmy account and mastodon. I have lemmy because of the blackout but didn’t know what I was doing. I note know how to use lemmy and mastodon from the user side of things. Lemmy for my subs and general looking at the sub home page and communities. Mastodon to chitchat and everything else
@ruud Any news when it will be up and running?
@Zardoz Deleting my Reddit account after 6 years and learning about the fediverse for the first time. I’m never going back to Reddit
@AllonzeeLV I deleted my account and left my sub to a mod I trusted. He opened it backup but the feedback he was getting from the Redditors told him to shut it back down lol
@LachlanUnchained I was on Reddit for 6 years and never heard of decentralized anything. I used this one twitter app and it was like login to mastodon. Like wtf is a mastodon 😭😭
@CannaVet @ZephyrXero Admins need to make it clear that this is a reddit alternative. it’s not reddit. They need to hurry up because June 30th The next wave of the reddit migration will come over and overload everything. Admins need to put it in the sidebar when users first join
@Lemmyin Takes about 1 day and then you are a pro. I have a mastodon account and lemmy account. and i’m satisified. just downloaded ivory for my iphone for mastodon
@Dusty @NotBadAndYou Twitter and Reddit are a dumpster fire. Only difference is that Twitter knows already and Reddit is slowly finding out!
@joeygibson @IncidentalIncidence u/spez literally looks like he could lick Elon’s boots
@IncidentalIncidence u/spez doubling again basically. Glad I left that dumpster fire and it sucks what will come next !
@Guy_Fieris_Hair I have a Lemmy account but my man is in mastodon and I can interact with . How they make the app really nice
@RyzenxD Yeah, boost was amazing. I like following a child comment up to the root ask in one go.
