Reddit -> VLemmy -> Lemm.ee here, like several others! Whenever I have trouble reaching Lemm.ee now I immediately assume it imploded. 😆 Fingers crossed it has a long and successful existence!

Thank you! I followed 196 over here from Reddit when it moved and I appreciate you reaffirming its principles. I think the move to Lemmy paradoxically gave 196 more visibility to people who don’t necessarily agree with those principles because its posts wind up so prominent on All, especially in smaller instances. It’s kind of hilarious how many posts I’ve seen asking why people on Lemmy say “rule” all the time 😂

Edit: in closing, fuck transphobes

I get them from here! …which then means I have nothing to contribute

Not all of us do. Source: me

I actually enjoy content from several of these repost bots and have submitted subs to repost. I think Lemmy is great, but it still is far behind in niche content. I think the bots are a great way of offering the content that’s missing vs Reddit. My only alternative would be going back to Reddit, which I don’t want to do. The whole reason I’m on Lemm.ee is its anti-defederation stance.

I think that guy is speeding

To my mind the old way is sometimes actually more “realistic”. The future evolves in unpredictable ways. Look at all the past predictions of the future that just look like that same time period with bigger buildings and flying cars. Today’s “hard” design approaches will likely evolve as poorly. Nothing is more futuristic to me than a design that is completely incomprehensible by current logic.

What stage is no pronouns in bio because I don’t want to explicitly tell people to use he/him even though that’s what I use day-to-day because that would feel like a defeat somehow, but I also don’t want to tell anyone to use any other pronouns because I’m not 100% sure whether I actually want them to and it would also out me to everyone as considering it?

Looks like a vanship from Last Exile (which anyone who enjoys this style should definitely check out)
